Project 3 – Six More Shots

Project 3 – Six More Shots

This assignment is based on the material covered in Chapters 2 and 3 of Framed Ink.

Using six horizontal panels measuring roughly 2.5” H x 6” W, tell us a story focusing on one character. This story can span a few significant moments in that character’s life or it can span their entire life. In the instance of the latter, it must always be clear that it is the same character despite their age or changing features.

Begin with an establishing shot to set the tone and location of the story. Use whatever camera angles, compositions, actions, and emotions are necessary to clearly communicate your story.  Remember additional techniques such as “animating” the frame, contrasting curved shapes/lines with angular ones, consistent focal points, and scale progression between small, medium, and large shapes from frame to frame.

Work at the specified size of 6 inches wide and 2.5 inches high for each of the six illustrations. You may work digitally or traditionally, but the final presentation will be digital. Traditionally created images should be scanned at no less than 200dpi.

Split your six images into two groups of three, each group on an 8.5x11 inch document with a plain white background. Stack them vertically and space them evenly. You’ll have two 8.5x11 documents that you can combine into one PDF named “IL220B_Lastname_Firstname_Project 3.pdf” or you can send them to me individually and name them “IL220B_Lastname_Firstname_Project 3a.pdf” and “3b.pdf”.

Project 3 is due on 1/31 and should be emailed to the instructor by 1:30pm.
