Examples of Storyboards

I have researched some storyboards for my animation project.

This is a Peanuts storyboard from a Charlie Brown Christmas. This storyboard features simple drawings of Lucy and Charlie and the script it features for the episode. I decided to research Peanuts storyboards because it is one of my favourite cartoons, and I like this because the storyboard is simple and gets to the point – it doesn’t state direction of the shots or background. I would like to follow up on this simplicity with my own animation.

This is a Scooby Doo storyboard. It has basic drawings with not much detail but it has a lot of detail about how it is directed, such as the zooming in and zooming out of the sign, known as a positive, negative flash. There is also the box where Scooby jumps out of the frame. This uses very interesting directions which I may add to my own animation.

This is a storyboard of the film, The Wrong Trousers from the Wallace and Gromit series. It features many frames of the chase scene.

This is a storyboard from ‘Moe Baby Blues,’ a series 14 episode of the Simpsons. To the bottom right it shows what was actually produced for the show. This video compares the storyboard and the completed episode to show the differences when the episode was in production.

Train Journey Filmography

These are the clips I shot when I was on the train to Castletown. I explored different perspectives of filming and captured points of interest.

I shot this video as I was going over the bridge at Kewaigue. I found this to be a point of interest as it is the biggest bridge the train goes along.

Here, I explored a different perspective of the journey by looking at the ground the train travels.

I filmed this as I went past Douglas Head and Port Soderick. I found the ocean view to be interesting.

Here, I filmed the crossing at Ballasalla. I think this is a point of interest as it is unexpected. The crossing is almost immediately after the station.

I made this video because I thought the sun shining through the trees was beautiful.

As I went past the airport, I thought about filming the sky and managed to capture a plane passing. I think this is an interesting perspective of filming my journey.

I captured this when I got of the train in Douglas. In this video I managed to catch how the train works.

I filmed this video as I was arriving to Castletown Train Station.

I filmed this as the train was leaving the station in Castletown.

I captured this video as the train was arriving to the station in Castletown.

Farm Day Filmography

These are a few videos I shot at the Community Farm in Douglas. These clips are mainly of the animals at the farm and are of generating ideas for the project.

This is a short clip of some sheep running in the pen.

This is a short clip of sheep moving in the pen in a group. In this clip I tried to compose the use of space.

In this video I held up some wool in front of the camera and filmed the wind blowing it.

This video shows me petting one of the cats.

This is another video of me petting a cat.
