Change (Short Storyboard film)

The boy's fear of the unknown and his insecurity cause conflicts in his relationships and make it difficult for him to adapt to change. He resists every new situation, clinging desperately to the familiar. He believes he lacks the confidence and capability to handle new situations. The boy's reaction is intense fear and anxiety because he doesn't know what to expect. He's uncomfortable with uncertainty. His resistance to change and the fear of independence could manifest as outbursts of frustration and anger, especially when the people around him ignite these feelings of his.

Many of us have gone to the movies to watch something new or exciting, and sometimes right before those first few second you’ve been waiting for, a short film can appear!

A short film is a film with a low running time, usually about 40 minutes and less. And there are three types: Live action, Documentary, and Animated. For my capstone project, I have decided to try and create a short film. Animating can take a long time to develop. Each frame drawn by hand is quite time consuming for a team of animators. Some projects may take months or up to years to have a complete product. With my experience now, I completely understand why it does. Now hear me out, there are 24 frames per second of animation. Each frame on screen having about 0.04 seconds.

Getting an idea for your very own short film can be hard. Sometimes you can’t choose between a fun action story or even a chilling horror. But this time, I wanted to recognize how we as an individual can handle change. My animatic short film shows exactly what I mean.
