Storyboard – Story of the Ugly Duckling (by Hans Christian Anderson)
I tried making an alternative story of the ugly duckling, ‘today-wise’, rather than the traditional style of the story. I tried linking some of today’s problems currently present (i.e. discrimination, bullying in schools) into the story of the ugly duckling, as I imagined there would be a comparison. The reflection of the ugly duckling in the fourth slide does not seem to follow the duck’s beak. I tried changing it but it didn’t make the picture look good. The target audience are meant for children, for I would think that someone watching someone getting bullied and doing nothing about it would be worse than the bully themselves. And so I tried to make a younger audience more aware of bullying and the consequences of it in a cartoon sort of way.
