Assignment- 9-12 frame storyboard of pictures that tells a story, with one person traveling, another waiting, and one of them giving a present to the other.
Craft- After picking the pictures to use, we needed to decide on a filter we would use for all of our pictures so our project would stay consistant. we decided to use the filter artistic- poster edges, distort- diffuse glow, and for some of our pictures, we thought the edges needed to be more crisp, so we used sharpen- sharpen edges. then, when it came time to decide on colors we chose blue and yellow. we chose blue because there are several different values and hues that we would be able to use, plus it is more of a sad/cold color which fits our story because it is kind of a sad story until the end when the kids are reunited. the other color we chose was yellow. yellow is opposite blue on the color wheel, so is very compatable with blue, plus it is a bright color that will add great contrast to the dark shades of blue we use.
Composition- we believe the pictures we chose to complete our storyboard express our message the best. each picture we picked has a different significance that adds to our story and completes it. when it comes to deciding which group member will complete which part of the final project, my group is pretty good. we split the work up evenly and do approximately the same amount of work. it is good to know that i can count on my group members, though.
Concept- our story is the same as before. a teenage girl gets kicked out of her house by her parents and she has no where to go, so she decides to visit her boyfriend, who happens to be in the marines. she is pregnant, but this information isnt revealed until the last frame. the audience can then assume it is the marine's baby.
