Storyboard writing
A similar concept to comic strip is "Storyboard" which is useful for animation and film making. Story boards are made by a sequence of pictures (similar to comic strip), but the pics can be shown very rough to give the basic idea of what actually the story is. we can also use "stick figures" to represent in storyboards. Stick figures are kind of cartooning in single line formats.
After going through the websites, you may do the exercises given next to web links. You may just have an overview (insight) of the following webpages but please observe how stories have been conveyed through sketches.
After understanding the concept of storyboard, You are required to do a storyboard for the following by assuming yourself as a tiger.
Problem :
Due to deforestation, most part of the forest became plain including the tiger. The tiger came to village and the villagers caught hold of her and handed over to zoo department. By assuming yourself as a tiger, do the following
- Narrate your story (in an elaborated way) in written
- Make five sketches of yourself (tiger) in various moods/expressions
- Create a storyboard to describe your story in 8 frames
You may also design the storyboard using stick pictures. Stick pictures are a kind of sketching using plain/simple lines. For your reference a sample storyboard with stick picture is shown below. (The idea of allowing storyboard with stick picture for this particular exercise is just as a beginning and learning.
I assume that it is important to understand "how to express your thoughts rather than simple sketching". But in exams, stick picture is not recommended because these type of questions usually carries 50 marks (If the marks were less say 15, then you may go for stick pictures). For now you try according to your convenience.
If you find time, you may also write a story and design a storyboard for the crow question. (thirsty crow putting stones in pot to drink water)
