Design

Year 11, Now onto the Design - Criterion B

Remember the more detailed and documented your storyboard is, the higher the grade.

What is a storyboard? According to Wikipedia, "Storyboards are graphic organizers in the form of illustrations or images displayed in sequence for the purpose of pre-visualizing a motion picture, animation, ..." This is particularly pertinent in relation to our current project. Creating a storyboard will help you plan your animation out shot by shot. You can make changes to your storyboard before you start animating, instead of after you have begun your video potentially saving you loads of time. (For more info check out this link: http://accad.osu.edu/womenandtech/Storyboard%20Resource/.)

Do a quick keyword search (storyboard template) on Google to get ideas to produce your own storyboard.

Now, onto the DESIGN (Criterion B).
You need to produce three (3) different complete storyboards for you movie and to evaluate each against your design specification.  Then you need to choose one of the designs and write a paragraph justifying your choice. You must also attach a "script" for your chosen video.

According to the IBO:
"Students are expected to generate several feasible designs that meet the design specification and to evaluate these against the design specification.
Students are then expected to select one design, justify their choice and evaluate this in detail against the design specification.
To get a 5/6: The student generates a range of feasible designs (in this case it will be 2), each evaluated against the design specification. The student justifies the chosen design and evaluates it fully and critically against the design specification."

Deadline: February 14 end of class.  Please submit the written work on Managebac but it is not necessary to submit the storyboards on Managebac.  

Please submit your completed Criterion B to your teacher on or before February 14.


IB Learner Profile: Risk-taker

This is your "prep" week. You should use this time to go through tutorials that will help you make your video and enable you to produce quality work.
