Homage | [untitled]_storyboard

I've not long found out that the brief has changed to focus on parents. Luckily, it's not a case of 'back to the drawing board' as I feel my homage encompasses not only my parents, but the parents of my neighbours.

Text taken from my homage synopsis:

"[untitled] is based around a time when life was simple. A time when I was growing up on Phillimore Road with my family and the family next door to ours, whom I am still in constant contact with to this day. [untitled] is short title sequence, which not only acts as an introduction to a short film, but is also an introduction to my life.

The credits found within are not conventional credits, but rather credits which give recognition to the location and the people who played a major part in my upbringing. The title sequence pays particular attention to both my parents and the parents of my neighbours, who also provided my sister and I with the same love and support they gave their own children. Namely, my mother, Francoise Silverstone and my father, Michael Silverstone, who died of a heart attack in 1994, without whom, I wouldn’t have had the experiences I had then, and turned out to be the person I am today.

The shots taken of modern day Phillimore Road have been slightly desaturated to explain that while the location and composition may be the same as that of the photographs taken years ago, the life and experiences surrounding the areas (the vibrant colours) have since long gone. However, the title sequence juxtaposes these current images against past photographs to show that this life and experience is still, and will always be embedded within the location.
[untitled] is a homage to the people in my life who made my upbringing extremely unique and enjoyable, and one thatI will never forget."

The storyboards below are in draft stages as images and frame are still missing. The final animation may have to change to keep up with the brief. I hope it doesn't change again!




Now all I have to do is animate it...
