Week 5



	Week 5 - Watch a series of sequencing video showing a certain action. Draw 5 frames summarizing the sequence. Think of a video game you want to make and describe the 15 second commercial you would create to advertise your game. Do a frame by frame description for a 15 frame story board you will create for your commercial.Click here to return to Term 1 Introduction to Drawing.



	My target audience is males between the ages of 18 and 40. The focal point of the commercial is man’s struggle between good and evil along with his ability to choose. The WOW factor will come from the sheer size of the conflict as it builds the graphic nature of the conflict and the game play. The commercial will air on MTv, Scifi, the Movie channel and late night on the cartoon network at the very least. My story is about the epic battle between good and evil; the battle of Armageddon. The main Characters in my story are Michael De’ Archangel, Luciferous Baphomet and Damian Jones. There is very little dialog between the characters as most of the commercial will be narrated. Where there is dialog, it will be between Michael and Luciferous as they struggle to win the will of Damian who is present. They are trying to get him to join their cause; he is struggling with an internal voice that tells him not to choose. There is conflict worldwide however the game focuses the epic battle in the middle eastern Holy Land region of Israel. Most battles will take place outdoors with the sun and moon being the primary light sources. During the day the sun will provide much of the ambient light sources while at night it will be street lights and other man made tools such as candles and flash lights. White Orange and Gold will dominate and angelic scenes and characters, Black, Red and Yellow will dominate demonic powers. Neutral scenes or scenes without battles will be dominated by organic earth tones. Perspective will be used to show enormous scale during major battles scenes as Michael and Luciferous both have the ability to grown in size. There will be scenes when they are as big as mountains. I’m not sure if this discussion is supposed be about the commercial spot of the game we are doing the commercial spot on. So I will sum it up by saying that in 15 seconds, I plan to illustrate the awesome power on both sides of the conflict, unimagined game play both free and mission based.

Bright light in sky diminishes to a point in the sky where Angels begin to appear and descend to earth. All angles are cloaked in white robes with gold trim. They are armed with flaming swords and have huge white feathered wings. They are all very fair skinned with long flowing golden blond hair. Michael De’ Archangel takes center frame and descends down upon camera viewpoint. Michael is different from the other angels in that he is slightly larger, carries a more impressive sword (The Sword of the Spirit) and boasts a huge halo around the back of his head. He spreads his wings to slow his descent. Narration: …between heaven… Frame 3 – 00:00:02:01 – 00:00:03:01 No Ambient sounds. Michael lands just in front of camera.

Michael De’ Archangel is visible near the horizon with an army of angels behind him. Demons flying towards the angels are visible everywhere as the camera moves up and behind Luciferous Baphomet. All demons have a unique look and physiology depending on which one of the seven deadly sins they emobody. Luciferous is not as sickly and wretched look as the rest. He represents them all and is very formidable being muscular and relentless with fury. All demons are jet black skinned, blood red eye sockets and pupils with bloodshot eyes.

Huge boney claws pierce their finger tipn and toeas, bright white razor sharp teeth line their mouths. Boney horns protrude from their skulls and wing tips. The point on their tails are razor sharp.

Frame 6 – 00:00:05:01 – 00:00:06:01 Camera pans around Luciferous for a profile shot of his rage filled face as the background fades in to a blurr indicating blinding speed.

Draining soul from Damien Jones while Michael is behind Damien doing the same thing to him. The soul drainage is represented by waves in the air, dark for evil, light for good. Both coming from Damien who is on his knees screaming in agony as the camera zooms in slowly to a facial portrait shot in frame 9. This scene takes place on the edge of a roof top. There is an AK-47 assault rifle on the roof top besides Damien, some spent shell casings are visible. Narration: …will you… Frame 8 – 00:00:07:01 – 00:00:08:01 Camera continues to zoom in.

Michael and Luficerous can be seen peering over the rooftop edge as the explosion sound fades to silence and the final two words of the narration are uttered. Narration: If any?

	BONUS - I completeed my storyboard draft frames early because I needed to time out my narration. I wanted to know exactly when words were to be spoken, what was being shown and that I could fit it all in to a 15 second commercial - This si the movie I produced complete with temporary sound track.
