My prese"tatio" for the #roup project was short a"d co"cise+ as * did"(t

"er'ous+ a"d ooki"# back it did fee ike * rushed the prese"tatio"+

howe'er * fee ike the i!porta"t ideas a"d co"cepts were put across to

cass)

* ooked i"to artists such as .ar /adrika a"d Gobei"s as * o'ed the

i"corporatio" of both 0 a"d 2 a"d their stye of drawi"#s)

the stye of drawi"# that * was

#oi"# for+ a"d the o'era coour

sche!e based o !y ideas+ a"d

that the tar#et audie"ce woud

be ai!ed towards chidre")

*f * coud prese"t !y ideas

i"to !ore ater"ati'e styes a"d

storyi"es+ as * fet ike * stuck

with styes that * fet safe with)

a"d it aso aows !e to ha"de the o'era 4ow of a project a"d !aki"#

sure e'eryo"e #ets their jobs a"d roes do"e i" ti!e for the deadi"e) * a!

ooki"# forward to the ideas !y #roup has to oer for this project a"d how

the "a outco!e wi tur" out)

We were asked to carify the art directio") We created se'era !ood

boards to hep with the art directio") ,fter #etti"# feedback fro! !y

ori#i"a storyboard+ as a #roup we decided that i"stead of ayeri"# 0 a"d

2 to#ether we woud separate the!+ so the rst a"d e"d sectio" woud

be do"e co!petey i" 0 whist the !idde sectio" woud be draw"

co!petey i" 2) We started to di'ide up the roes+ ie a"d 6uia+ who

ha'e chose" 2 for their optio"s this year+ woud focus o" the $%a"tasy(

sectio" which was to be do"e i" 2+ whist ,!a"da+ Warre"+ a"d * woud

focus o" the $7eaity( sectio" to be do"e i" 0) We thou#ht this woud be

the best as we woud be abe to take what we ha'e ear"t i" our casses+

2 or 0+ a"d use the! for #roup project)

* reay e"joyed creati"# the character !ood boards+ as it ope"ed a whoe

"ew word of pote"tia desi#"s for this project) We fet that it was best if


4/31

e'eryo"e did a !ood board so we coud co!e to#ether a pick out the

desi#"s we iked the !ost)


5/31

* aso created !ood boards for the i'i"# roo!+ because * was #oi"# to

create the i'i"# roo! for the 0 sectio"+ therefore * used Pi"terest a"d

Goo#e to "d i'i"# roo! desi#"s as i"spiratio" for our i'i"# roo! we

woud create)

We aso thou#ht it coud be a" idea to ha'e a #arde" where the two

chidre" woud be payi"# i" whe" the 4oor tur"s to $a'a(+ so * aso

created a"other !ood board for ci!bi"# fra!es) /owe'er that idea was

e'e"tuay pushed aside because we had a ti!e i!it of 1 !i"ute+ a"d

that woud !ea" we woud ha'e to a"i!ate the chidre" !o'i"# fro! the

i'i"# roo! to the #arde"+ aso it was "ot a si#"ica"t or i!porta"t cha"#e

to !ake+ as the storyi"e woud be just the sa!e if they stayed i" the

i'i"# roo!)


6/31

We the" worked o" worki"# out the desi#"s for the two characters ,""a

a"d i'ia) ,s it is ai!ed towards chidre" we decided to #o with a chid-

ike cartoo" stye)


7/31

These

were !y rst two i"itia drawi"#s for the two characters) The shorte"edbodies a"d the ar#e eyes+ !ake the characters ook you"#er) /owe'er

after #etti"# feedback fro! the #roup+ we fet ike the stye of drawi"#

!ay be si#hty di8cut for the peope doi"# 0 to copy) /owe'er we a

a#reed o" the stye a"d outts the characters were weari"#+ as the dress

!ade ,""a ook !ore #iry a"d cute+ whereas i'ia(s t-shirt a"d jea"s

!ade her ha'e a hi"t of a to!boy character)

The other !e!bers of the #roup aso did so!e rou#h character desi#"s+

a"d ie did the desi#"s for the character of the ra#o") * fee at this


8/31

poi"t * took o" !ore of a director(s roe+ as they woud ask !y ad'ice o"

their desi#"s a"d which styes * thou#ht woud be better for each

character a"d so o")

,fter #etti"# #ood feedback fro! the #roup a"d Me# a"d 9oi"+ we fet

that the character desi#"s coud sti be de'eoped further)


9/31

,t this poi"t i" ti!e we started to draft out the storyboard) ie a"d 6uia

were the two !ai" peope to be drafti"# out this storyboard usi"# the

Waco! tabets) :i"ce a !e!ber of the #roup was rather sow at drawi"#

out the storyboard+ it was decided that * woud hep with the 2 sectio"

i"stead of doi"# 0 which was what * ori#i"ay pa""ed) * fee ike the

decisio" to cha"#e fro! 0 to 2 was a di8cut decisio" but it was o"e

that woud be"et the #roup+ as we reaised that the fa"tasy sectio" for

the 2 is a" i!porta"t part of the whoe thi"#)

We spit up the thu!b"ai storyboard betwee" us+ a"d * drew out the

e"di"# sectio" for the storyboard) ie a"d 6uia were the two !ai" peope

to be drafti"# out this storyboard usi"# the Waco! tabets) :i"ce a!e!ber of the #roup was rather sow at drawi"# out the storyboard+ it

was decided that * woud hep with the 2 sectio" i"stead of doi"# 0

which was what * ori#i"ay pa""ed+ a"d the other perso" woud hep out

with the 0 sectio" such as !odei"# or ;< u"wrappi"#) * fee ike the

12/31

:cript


13/31

*" the

we fet ike the seco"d script was !uch cearer for us to foow ao"#)


14/31

These are other drawi"#s of pote"tia character desi#"s) * wa"ted the! to

be easy to draw a"d to !ode+ so therefore * #a'e the! two s!a dots for

eyes+ but * kept i" !i"d the characteristics of each character+ a"d tried to

desi#" their cothi"# to e3press their perso"aities)

* aso drew a" e3pressio" sheet of the characters feei"# "er'ous or

happy) ,#ai" * tried to e3peri!e"t with diere"t coours a"d styes)

The brid#e was o"e of the !ai" probe!s i" this sectio"+ because we wa"ted it
