Brief

 

This is the brief for my project 

Reflection:

My first impression of this brief is that it is a ton of work. I honestly expected the project to be a bit more laid back and fun but it seems a like a lot of work and research will have to be done for this project. My only hope is that this project won’t take too much time off of my free time during the weekends. However, I look forward to improving my photography skills for this project!

Final Storyboard

 This is my final storyboard and reflection.

Reflection and Edits:

Making the final storyboard was actually super difficult to make. I had to redraw some parts of the draft and make changes since some parts didn't look quite right. It was also very confusing to make some of the arrows for the edits and transitions. It was confusing because sometimes I lose track of the shot numbers while annotating the frames. I also got burnt out which made it very challenging to continue drawing consistently. Even so, I think it was a great experience and I even think that my drawing skills have improved slightly. Next time, if I were to do a similar project again, I would work on my time management and perhaps lay out more solid plans for the final storyboard before starting.

I made some few changes to the draft storyboard. This included changing the hairstyle (of present day Kate) into something more similar to her younger self's hair. I also changed the frame of her glasses into rectangle shaped ones as those are more common amongst the older folks. For the scene in shot 14.1-14.4, I had originally planned to make Kate go golfing, however I wanted to represent women standing up against harassment in these shots instead and made the adjustments accordingly. Lastly, I changed the direction for some of the shots to show the Nike logo the right way. Before I made these adjustments, the Nike logos were the other way around. I think these changes definitely brought my advertisement together. 

1st Draft Storyboard

 This is my first draft storyboard.

Reflection:

Making the draft for the storyboard actually proved to be very challenging. It was hard for me to not spend too much time adding details. It was also quite challenging to come up with the different activities my "actor" was going to do during the flashbacks and time-skips. I do think I did relatively well in planning the storyboard, it is clear enough so I don't need to do too much work while making the final storyboard.
