So here is my first attempt at storyboarding. The task was to have one character moving slowly, one character moving fast and then make them meet at the end, with between 7 to 20 images. I love monkeys and top hats, so this seemed a pretty standard place to start when coming up with my storyline. We were shown in class ways of showing speed, such as using markers (I used a tree with a snake on it) and changing the scenery drastically. I presented my storyboard in class and received some helpful feedback. The main issue was that I needed to include the hat-less monkey walking amongst the trees in the jungle in shot number 4, to make it obvious the top hat monkey has spotted him and his bananas. I found it pretty hard drawing the monkeys at different angles, which is especially evident in shot number 4 (so many issues with that shot!) so I really need to just work on improving my drawing skills....
I really enjoyed this task though, as I liked coming up with a little plot and getting to be a bit more creative.
