Story boarding/ Visual Interpretation by Hana Lau

Alternative shots, I've only managed to do 3 shots at the moment - shots 01, 02 and 04.
I've also realized I've forgotten the pan in shot one, but I guess the alternative is one establishing shot with loads of posters (of 'coloured' celebrities) strewn about the room and walls and then a shot of the magazine shes reading through - then her looking out the window.

I've also altered the environment in shot 01 to have her reading on a window nook instead of her bed, I think this will make a better transition and won't cause a hassle of "how does she look out the window in quick manner?". I also like how a nook can portray how shes 'closed off' and shy to the world, as a nook is generally used as a quiet place to read.

Visual Development: 60's Inspiration

Research by Rebecca Warburton

The story of 'Colourless' is currently intended to be portrayed with an emphasis on colour. The form of the piece accentuates the protagonist's differences/ isolation by being white, compared to the rest of the world which is in full colour. Inspiration could be taken from the 60's decade which was full of colour and textures. Pop Art was a popular genre of art during the time; it often portrayed people abstractly with portraits of icons repeated side by side in different colours.

'Chromatic Mutations (1969)' by Timothy Armstrong

 The card reads: "In his 'kinetic constructions' Armstrong uses a mixture of coloured screen prints and curved Perspex to give a sense of movement as you walk past the image.

Timothy Armstrong studied at Nottingham College of Art and design, where his work was strongly influenced by his teacher Bridget Riley.
