For my SD1 final, I was tasked with creating a storyboard teaser for The Break Up podcast, hosted by This American Life. The podcast tells of writer Starlee Kine's sudden end of her relationship, including her journey through heartbreak and healing. Choosing to focus on the end of the relationship and its immediate aftermath, I use the misdirect of a bird flying in mostly blue sky, then finding itself in a storm and shattering into a mess of glass and feathers.
Learning Outcomes:
I had to utitlize strong photo composition techniques in Photoshop to complete this project. Technical skills such as knowing how to properly adjust color and lightning were invaluable in this project's completion. Additionally, I learned narrative and storytelling skills in creating a cohesive and convincing concept in communicating the podcast's story.
