Storyboard Animatic
This is an exercise in storyboarding done for my Digital Narrative course. We were given a pre-written script and asked to create a story based upon the dialogue only, fleshing out two major characters and a scenario that made sense. Only minor changes were allowed to the dialogue, and only if they did not affect the storyline. Panels were digitally painted in Corel, voices recorded in GarageBand, and components edited together in FinalCut 7.
The year is 1943. Richard is an American Marine and spy who has been posing as a German Nazi for the past 6 years. Wolfgang, a real Nazi, knew Richard as Roger, his undercover identity. When Richard grounds the bomber aircraft he and Wolfgang are supposed to be flying to America, Wolfgang realizes Roger is not real. Wolfgang is held hostage and given the difficult decision of either revealing all German intelligence he has knowledge of, or being killed on the spot. He asks for one last walk along the beaches of France before making his decision.
