I wanted to visualize a story I have verbally told countless times, a spooky ghost story of a first interaction with my grandmother and I. The feeling of fear and confusion is the goal for communication to the audience.

Storyboard

My storyboard introduces the background, tells about my physical interaction, then leaves the audience with an open hanger.

I used Storyboarder to create the foundation for my story. The interface was super easy to understand and use. My Wacom tablet didn't respond too well to the program and for some reason my microphone could not pair with the program either so I had to use Voice Memos on my Macbook and import them individually to pair with the boards.

Moodboard

My caveats are illustration, so I wanted to hone in on collage and personality with line expression. I leaned towards more muted colors to give a more serious, darker tone.

Characters and assets

For the first character I crated myself with all the layers.

For the environment, Chaski started collecting frames, cutout furniture and collage text assets.
