Final Assignment

Final Assignment
Agnes Cherine Viridiana, (0331332)
Illustration and Visual Narative
Parallax Tunnel book

Front & Back and Back & Forth

An undertaking of a series of Illustrations to illuminate narrative spaces and transitions that allow to demonstrate technical and conceptual abilities.
Narratives can be conveyed in many ways. Some narratives follow a traditional linear arc. Other narratives loop in time, flash forward and back, restructure sequence or employ aspect-to-aspect transitions. Some view the same incident from different perspectives. Multiple narratives can be spliced together. Events can be placed in random order. Panels can be subverted. And several narrative threads can be simultaneously told. Narratives can be poetic. They can explore internal emotions instead of external action. They can investigate a central theme. Narratives can be shaped around predetermined rules. They can be reversed, labyrinthine in nature, and involve multiple readings with ambiguous beginnings and endings.
Outcome
Based on the given narrative you are to create a series of illustration to demonstrate the passage of time that leads to the one piece or concludes it. Referring to your submitted rational, you will formulate a narrative for this passage of time and produce one out of the two following outcomes:

All outcomes must utilize at least 3 layers and identify 3 transitional types (Scott McCloud). The outcome may include more than one perspective point, meaning it can be viewed from back to front, right to left vice versa.

When we’re told to finish the sketches before wednesday (14 June 2017) I was so shocked, got headache because we have so many assignment deadline in this week and most of all only got a short time to finish. So in the end I choose the story about The Hare and The Turtle, but Mr. Hafiz told me to make the story a lil bit different from the original one. Will be working more on the sketches details.

Original story
There once was a speedy Hare who bragged about how fast he could run. Tired of hearing him boast, the Tortoise challenged him to a race. All the animals in the forest gathered to watch.
The Hare ran down the road for a while and then paused to rest. He looked back at the tortoise and cried out, "How do you expect to win this race when you are walking along at your slow, slow pace?"
The Hare stretched himself out alongside the road and fell asleep, thinking, "There is plenty of time to relax."
The Tortoise walked and walked, never ever stopping until he came to the finish line.
The animals who were watching cheered so loudly for Tortoise that they woke up the Hare. The Hare stretched, yawned and began to run again, but it was too late. Tortoise had already crossed the finish line.

Redo story from Disney
The story starts when the hare and the turtle have a chat saying that the turtle is too slow and decided to have a race, so in the middle of the race the hare fall a sleep under a tree but he knew and he's awake when the turtle have passed him, ho he run again until he meet a girl hare, they talk and talk without noticing that the turtle had passed them so the turtle win the race.

My sketch
I decided to trace the hare from the original film but for the turtle I did some of it by my own self together with the background and others.
First Sketch

Feedback

Mr. Hafiz told me that my parallax works but I need to add more texture on my work so it's not too flat

Friday (14/07/17)
I was told that the last part really works but unfortunately most of the transition doesn't work and disturbs the composition also making the framing not work. The composition was jumble up and I need to be careful for using too much horizontal line.

So I decided to redo and finish it on Saturday 15/07/17
