You could have worked quicker and learned just as much - and on this project, knowing how to work smart is key to achieving your goals. Remember too what I've said before about the slightly negative tone around your own work - and defensiveness around constructive criticism is never cool :(tutorphilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11842833126210822641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3503030921127487367.post-6241386148879989542015-01-30T12:01:15.196+00:002015-01-30T12:01:15.196+00:00Hi Jackie.

When I do these detailed drawings of people, I use a ruler to measure out certain features and am then able to draw the rest. I wanted to spend a lot of time on it because, in all honesty, I have not been proud of my work to this point, and that has made people believe that I suck, basically. I used this task to demonstrate my ability. I understand that it's probably not the "normal" story board style, but this is what I wanted to do. I don't want my work to be the same as other people.dreason479https://www.blogger.com/profile/08160867191338656831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3503030921127487367.post-17959881861071925192015-01-30T11:46:57.144+00:002015-01-30T11:46:57.144+00:00Hi Dan,
You have chosen a much more action-packed ...Hi Dan,<br />You have chosen a much more action-packed scene to storyboard this time, so that is good. <br /><br />However, I can't help feeling that the whole point of the exercise has been somewhat lost on you - the idea was to watch a short clip, pausing it every so often, and then trying to capture the action and dynamism of what you have watched with your own drawing... Would I be way off the mark to suggest that it looks as though you have traced over some film stills here (and in the 'Shaun of the Dead' one)? Take the 'small alien bursting out' scene... it is identical in every sense to this image - <br /><br />http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-l3jkJwuWox0/T8o1GN9a46I/AAAAAAAACCQ/0xWZP58UQpE/s1600/adeath.jpg<br /><br />...right down to the bent middle finger on Kane's left hand. That is definitely not a detail that would just have been picked up from watching the film! <br /><br />I know you have spent a lot of time on this Dan, but ultimately it is time that would have been better spent doing your own interpretation of the action, in a much quicker and sketchier fashion. Have a look at these examples of your classmates storyboards, to see what was expected...<br /><br />http://charlieserafini.blogspot.co.uk/2015/01/from-script-to-screen-like-for-like.html<br />http://joshaudsley-smith.blogspot.co.uk/2015/01/like-for-like-matrix-30-seconds.html<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Jackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13332181835614441447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3503030921127487367.post-62947973053304001692015-01-30T10:13:48.265+00:002015-01-30T10:13:48.265+00:00This is amazing Pan:)This is amazing Pan:)Sachin RAihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01213905662651630193noreply@blogger.com
