Storyboard

The Angel, story from Hans Christian Andersen

I imagine the introduction to be quick images of events passing by and showing the viewer as well as opening credits, similar to the Spider-Man 2 and 3 movie opening titles.

Pictograph

Stick up for you :)
Design Brief
Pictographic Narrative
-Tell a story with a sequence of images using simplified pictorial signs and symbols

A pictographic narrative is simple and straight forward in getting a point across. It can be told by a sequence of images using simplified pictorial signs and symbols. The purpose of this particular pictograph is just to tell a short story, just for entertainment purposes. It will be directed at a more mature audience as it is not to be taken literally but just something that is humorous, something to break up the mood. The pictograph is to have a meaning behind it though, perhaps you are not alone, friends and family will help you in times of need, any hidden moral behind the story. It may be seen on a website just on the side, or in an email around friends just for a quick laugh and a reminder of the moral of the story.

The short story pictograph is to fit between four to eight slides unless proven to work otherwise. Each scene will be 6x6 inches and be spread upon an 18x12 inch canvas. As it is a pictograph there are no words to be used, just the images. Black and white is preferred and the images to be simple. With this simplistic design it is quick for the viewers to get an understanding of what is happening within the images.

As a pictograph is straight to the point, it is just images. This helps to stick to the mind of the viewer, especially if black and white it can be taken as like a snapshot to the brain and easily remembered. That is part of the effectiveness of the pictograph. The time frame is seven days and is to be ready by then for evaluation.

Once the world runs out of resources, whether your wealthy or poor, you'll realise you still cant eat money

The planet is made up of a planet that is on fire and a picture of earth. I put the pictures together to show half earth and half the fiery destroyed planet. This is
