Lens Based Media- Storyboard



we were asked to bring in a series of six images that followed a beginning middle end structure, the image above tells my story of a penknife who cannot make friends because it cuts up everything it comes across: paper and a water bottle, the lowest point of the story is box 5 where the knife is nearly close because it feels so alone, the floor is covered in water and there is torn paper everywhere. I enjoyed this activity because it was fun and challenging, trying to animate inanimate objects into a remotely interesting story is not easy but i appreciated the effort that i put into it. We had crits on our work, we worked in groups of 5 and asked questions and gave feedback on eachother's work, we asked about things such as lighting, colour and story. It was very useful to ask myself the questions other people posed and i found it very interesting what other people had to say about my work. In the afternoon we sat in circles of around 9 people and we would take it in turns modelling in the middle whilst everyone else drew that person. By the end of one drawing we had a 360 degrees animation (it was scanned later) of a person, it was really cool. drawing under time pressure has been something i have struggled with since starting at ravensbourne but i think i have finally grasped it and stopped worrying about what i think about my work and instead appreciating it for what it is.
