Midterm

Description: I got the story Idea of searching for family from finding Nemo, because it is my favorite movie, and I also recently did a short video project on it for another class. It starts off with a sad lonely watermelon in the kitchen. When you click on him, a thought bubble appears, showing an image of him and his family – his wife strawberry and his son grape. When you click on the thought bubble, a box appears below, which tells you that watermelon’s family was kidnapped by the evil vegetable family from next door – potato, his wife beetroot, and his son brocolli. Watermelon has to go rescue his family. In the next scene, he is at the backyard of his house. There are rocks blocking his way from the neighbor’s house, which have to be dragged and dropped to clear his way. Once the way is clear, he can be dragged to the door and taken into the neighbor’s house. The third scene is in the neighbor’s house. He encounters the evil vegetable family, who has his wife and son. There is a knife which you have to use to chop the evil vegetable family in order to rescue his son and his wife.

“Roy” A Short Story

Roy is average and has a normal office job. This is a story of Roy’s simple day and how he unexpectedly saves a child’s life. The tone of the plot is not exciting; I wanted to keep it as bland as life can be. I drew these digitally and used only black and white allowing the viewer to focus more on what is happening. I aimed for an illustrative “sketchy” look because I felt it added to the emptiness of the compositions.The user does nothing more than progress the story.

Introduction

screen_grab_1This is how the viewer is introduced to Roy. The ringing alarm is made of two images alternating at a certain frame rate – everything else in the composition remains static.
