While due to copyright issues I can't upload content from Friday's lecture I have been able to track down a number of sites related to most of what was covered.

Glenn Marshall's site can be found at Butterfly while his videos can also be found on Vimeo

He has also developed a number of stunning iPad apps

A selection of Graham Tom's work can be found on New Tek Europe

Corinna Askin's animated piece can be found here Summer with Monika

Also worth checking out is the hugely talented Oliver Jeffers.

As mentioned Marshall's video was created with Processing a piece of generative software currently available as a free download.

Project 2 - Developing a Narrative

Choose your favourite film and create a storyboard of a specific section of that movie in no less than nine frames.

Your storyboard should be presented showing the key events of the movie sequence. You can illustrate these, useing photographs, collage, computer graphics, all of which should be your own work, to create the key frames.

While getting the essence of the movie we would like you to pay particular attention to the visual appearance. We are not looking for stick men or Google images we want to see well designed, carefully crafted storyboards.

Possible sources of inspiration could be looking at the work of storyboards artists, comic books or graphic novels.

Your final storyboard and all of your research material should be posted on your DES107 Design Diary by:

Noon Thursday 17th March 2011 in preparation for a crit on Friday 18th March 2011.
