A story board is a graphic organizer that consists of illustrations or images displayed in sequence for the purpose of pre-visualising a motion picture, animation, motion graphic or interactive media sequence.
For our group project we have decided to focus on fashion through the decades. We are going to do this by having the same model walking towards the camera several times in different outfits from different decades. We are going to use a story board to show what different ‘scenes’ we are going to include within our film.Once we have filmed the shoot we are going to use adobe premier to edit the clips together by cropping and changing each clip quickly to show the quick progression of fashion and how now its slowly developing to nfts in fashion.
We will be filming someone walking infront of a still image that we have found in the archives from that time period or a photo we have taken.
Where
Hautlieu drama studio.
Who
Everyone in our group will being in the video all dressing up as the different eras.
How
We will use a projector and blank white screen to project on and have the camera set up on a tripod. We will take multiple shots with different models and outfits and then edit them to make it look like the models are walking seamlessly as one and all flow into one 30 second video.
When
After school, however when the shoot is done doesn’t matter as we are using artificial lighting.
Why
We want to show the difference in clothes over the years and that no matter how much technology and the world changes clothes stay the same and come back into fashion.
Shot type
Shot type: Long shot
Location: Drama studio with projector background of image from archives or one we have taken.
Props: Phone, headphones or object from the specific era
People: The people in my group (Cerys, Anais, Anya and Jess)
Summary
Our 30 second clip will consist of someone from the group walking in front of a screen where a image to match that era will appear and they will be wearing iconic clothes to match. The clip will cut from different eras while the model walks looking like they are continuously walking through the different eras. The end will have short cuts from each scene with new outfits from alternative eras then suddenly stop while the model turns towards the camera dressed in all black with a plain white background to leave the viewers thoughts open to interpretation.
“In 2010 when I was in New York I decided that art was what I wanted to do, and there I started doing some artworks involving embroidery and painting.” – Romussi
From 2010 to 2014 he worked with different subjects such as ballerinas, portraits with embroidered flowers and skulls, and landscapes. Later, Jose started to see and made art in a different way: with a critical eye and a social perspective.
“My work is a constant search to express and represent my ideas. My occurring artworks are a reaction of my inspiration. This starts with an image, that inspires me in a certain way to do an embroidery that changes it into a new one. I am always searching for a new sense of interpretation for my pieces.”
His technique is focused on the use of thread as medium to make merge different times and spaces in the realized pieces. Embroidery technique is used on paper, as well as on photograph, with no fear of breaking the support since it is part of the process too.
“I intervene in images by applying my own perception of beauty to them. Sometimes by giving them a new identity or a different aesthetic concept. It’s the chance to give this image a new emotion, a new life, a new interpretation of beauty through embroidering”.
Process
Step – by – Step Animation
I started with my first image as the background.
I then got each images and copied them over each other in order, lowered the opacity to line up the top image with the one underneath.
A storyboard is a graphic organizer that plans a narrative. Storyboards are a powerful way to visually present information; the linear direction of the cells is perfect for storytelling, explaining a process, and showing the passage of time. At their core, storyboards are a set of sequential drawings to tell a story. By breaking a story into linear, bite-sized chunks, it allows the author to focus on each cell separately, without distraction. Depending on the source, either Howard Hughes, with the 1930 film, Hell’s Angels, or Walt Disney, with the 1933 animated film, Three Little Pigs, is cited as the father of modern day storyboards. In 1939, Gone with the Wind was the first live-action movie to be completely drawn out on storyboards before filming. The original storyboards showed stories broken up into pieces. Each piece of the story was drawn out on a card or piece of paper and pinned to a board in sequential order. Collaborators were then able to talk about and revise the story by looking at one part at a time, check to be sure it made sense, and plan for the production. Instead of redoing a large-scale drawing when changes were made, a single card could be reordered, redrawn, or even deleted. The ability to make changes easily ahead of time saves a lot of time and money!
Importance of a storyboard
When you storyboard a video you’re setting up a plan for production, including all the shots you’ll need, the order that they’ll be laid out, and how the visuals will interact with the script. The video storyboard is a starting point or suggested thorough linearound which you can plan your coverage (all the angles you will shoot of a scene). This really comes in handy when you’re making your video, as it ensures you won’t forget any scenes and helps you piece together the video according to your vision. While it may take you a little while to put your storyboard together, in the long run it will save you time in revisions later. Not only will it help you explain your vision to your team, but it will also make the creation process go more smoothly.

Summary
For our 30 second animated film we plan to use a projector to project an image of Jersey in each generation, with a person walking through in an outfit from that period of time to show how fashion trends have changed over the years.
As a group, we will be focusing on the theme of generations and the generational difference between lifestyles. For example the way people dressed, the inside of their homes and the way they went about their day-to-day lives.
In more detail, we will be focusing on fashion throughout the generations, specifically 70’s, 2000’s, present day and how fashion will be in the future.
For our 30 second animated film we plan to use a projector to project an image of Jersey in each generation, with a person walking through in an outfit from that period of time to show how fashion trends have changed over the years.
Our digital image will be a picture from each clip of each outfit trend in a line from one side of the image to another, inspired by this image below…
Although being called a tapestry, The Bayeux Tapestry is in fact a piece of embroidery made with wool thread on a linen cloth, that portrays the events leading up to and during The Battle of Hastings in 1066. Made in the medieval period, this story told through needlework consisted of the Duke of Normandy’s crossing of the English Channel and defeating the Anglo-Saxon King Harold. The Duke of Normandy, also known as William The Conqueror following these events, was the seventh Duke of Normandy and was also promised the throne by King Edward after his death, due to his lack of heirs and the fact that he found refuge in Normandy for 30 years. The tapestry tells the story from the year 1064 when King Edward the Confessor instructs his brother in law Harold to sail to Normandy, in order to offer the Duke of Normandy succession to the English throne. Although, after King Edward dies, Harold crowns himself king instead, leading to the Duke of Normandy invading, crossing the sea in long ships full of horses and his army, and reclaiming his throne through the epic battle in 1066. This battle is told through the gruesome and detailed embroidery, displaying a bloody battle full of severed limbs, falling horses and the defeat of Harold caused by an arrow being shot in his eye, according to the Anglo-Norman tapestry. This colossal retelling of history spans up to 70 metres long, containing 58 scenes, 626 characters and 202 horses.
Furthermore, it is said that Jersey were also a part of this turning point in history. This is as it was rumoured that some Jersey men or relatives of them fought in the battle of Hastings under the command of their Normandy Lords. However, this cannot be said for sure as we are unable to prove this claim, with the matter of who in fact really attended the battle being an argument that has spanned over centuries. However, the sons of Godefroi de Carteret, Onfroi, Mauger and Roger, are said to be participants in this historic event. This links to the history of Jersey as Onfroi de Carteret’s son is believed to the first de Carteret established in Jersey, resulting in the dynasty that ruled Jersey for centuries.
Here you can explore the Bayeaux tapestry scene by scene, allowing you to get a real sense of the enormity of this piece of needlework and the brutal and dramatic events it displays.
Concept: What will the future of Jersey look like as a community in the metaverse?
3 WORDS: United, Peaceful, Diverse
A SENTENCE: A place where an individual feels respected and comfortable in being who they are.
A PARAGRAPH: Regarding all communities in our mind map, our group decided to focus in on the relationship between the religious community and the LGBTQ+ community as we all know the conflicts those communities have. A metaverse can be described as a potential utopia, so we want to construct a united metaverse between all communities where we all live in harmony.
Content
In our film, we want to show the thoughts and fears of a young man that is conflicted between his religion and sexuality, using scenes of a riot like environment to portray the negative fears and connotations of a happy relationship to show the reward.
Our storyboard shows that we want a girl walking in front of a street background wearing the clothes of the past and the future to then leave with plain clothes to question what will happen with fashion. We plan to use different backgrounds depending on the year we film in to clearly state that this is a different time point. To add to our story we put in future fashion on what we think will come back and popular again or if there will be something new altogether.
The artist in which I have decided to be my main focus is Yulia Makeyeva as I find her work very unique to other artists. Yulia Makeyeva is an emerging multidisciplinary artist and founder of Connect With Art. She grew up in Russia and is now based in Jersey. She is very passionate about engaging the community in art, which relates to our project of nfts and how everyday more people are understanding about what they are globally in the community.
Fleeting: Installation View
I feel that this photograph has several different aspects as her work is an exploration of human memory and the memory of materials. This therefor makes her photograph unique to others as the materials in which she used has sentimental value. Additionally this photo may catch peoples eyes as you can cleary see the main focus which is the embroidery in the centre. However people may find the background distracting for the embroiders although i feel the use of a projector adds to the photograph as a whole.
