[WIP] Storyboard

One of the criteria for getting into University is that i have to do a 9 - 10 image storyboard.

The criteria demands ability to tell a story with images only, no words, not artistic ability, so while i'm making sure these don't look crap, i'm not sinking my life into them either.

The title for this is, aptly, "Good Friend Gone Bad"
Still unfinished, i have an amusing last frame planned.













I also made frame 6 into an amusing meme.



There you go, tear it apart.

--EDIT--

Removed the mould, because it sucked anus.

Storyboard finished.

I love your style.

It looks really nice, but I lost the concept after frame 6. Who is he killing in number 7? And whats with the final frame?

i got the first two but then i jumped. they're like doing stuff together then the pear owns at pool and gets stabbed but the other guy is srry?

It seems like they are normal fruits at first. Then the pear start winning at pool and gainning cash and becomming sleazy and greedy. He then becomes a drunkard (assuming from all the cash) and end up killing a guy (maybe mob realated). Then the pear crashes and shrivels up.

I would guess that the final frame shows that the other frames resembled the transition from the pear's ripe to rotten state.

Like the art and the mood of each frame (except the last one). The blue walls and blue seat don't do much for me.

I was afraid of that, the story seems pretty clear to me, but that's because i know what it is.

It starts off with the pear and the apple, they're having fun, the pear is supposed to be the 'friend' and the first 3 frames are really happy and good to repesent that.

Then it sort of skips to the next major frame, the pear is starting to gamble a bit, he's a bit more mature and a bit more iffy, he's drinking, getting into a bit of a temper, and eventually he ends up in an alley killing someone (i don't elaborate on what, it's not important for the story.) He ends up a diseased, dying drunkard in a back alley somewhere, and our apple finds him to discover his friend has 'gone bad'

Then the last frame, its a completely different setting because it's 'reality'. A normal kitchen (based on my one at home actually) with a fruit basket, and in the basket is an apple and an old mouldy pear.

The purpose of the last frame is doing a little pun on 'Good Friend Gone Bad' in that when fruit is rotten, we say it's 'gone bad' but when a person goes bad, it tends to mean the sort of stuff we see the pear doing in the strip (gambling, drinking, killing ect.)

I would consider rethinking the last frame as it doesn't follow with the rest of the story but just stands as a "pun" on the title of the story. If you were aloud more frames maybe making the apple walk away from the pear, then have the final frame be reality but the pear is being thrown away and the apple is being held and taken to be used. That way you can convey the pun you want with the added finale to show the pears total uselessness and stagnation.

Unfortunately, 10 frames is my max.

I can't think of any other way to do reality, except possibly to use a picture of a pear and an apple, but i don't have any old rotten pears :\

Looks like something you'd see in JetFangInferno's signature lol
Pretty cool storyboard though. Good luck with it!

i got the last frame and i think u should leave it. i does all become a lot clearer now that u said what it was about. not even sure what i was confused about.

Take one out from the first 3 and replace the last with mine suggested, then you fit them.

I just took this and my other one in to see my VCD teacher and he said they were great, had no problems with them at all. Now this is a guy who is usually the first to slam down even the smallest error and i think he's an incredible teacher because of that, the fact that for the last 10 years he's got a class average of A tells me i'm right too. So i'm inclined to go with his opinion :P

Also, i just got my P plates and a Kar, so today is a good day :D

It's so deep. <3
