We Find our New Show Title :P


The Untold Secrets of Fairy Tales

It's beautiful isn't it?

Our First Storyboard EVERRRRRR!!!!


Re-make of 3 Little Pigs Story

Story starts with an introduction of characters.
All the pigs get kicked out of their mother’s house because they need to get on with life. The first pig (Brad) is a cigarette addict and he decides to make a house of hay, but he drops his cigarette and his house burns down around him. He blames it on wolf. Wolf goes to court and he loses (judge is a pig). Judge tells pig to live with older brother (3rd pig - Joe) while wolf gathers money to pay back pig. Older brother gets a little mad but agrees to this decision.
The second pig (Porkchop) is very fat and lazy. When he gets kicked out, he makes a house of wood. He then messes up his house so badly that termites infest it and his house breaks down around him. He blames it on unsuspecting wolf. Wolf goes to court and he loses. Judge tells pig to live with older brother while wolf gathers money to pay back pig. Older brother gets even angrier. He makes the final statement: “I’m going to get back at you wolf. No matter what it takes!” He stamps his hoof on a table and the table cracks. Screen fades out.

This is how we started off on our episode number 1. Our show is the remake of fairy tales.  We had to change our topic suddenly because we were at the risk of hurting people's feelings. My partner and I will be evaluating and reflecting on this amendment when we write our evaluation + reflection. For now, we have a rough draft of our episode. We are still behind on our jingle and we also need to find a suitable name for our show.

Create Day 1 - Hmm...What did I do today?


Today, Beverly and I initiated our create stage by making our storyline. At first, we were quite confused about what to write about but we finally thought of something interesting. We both experimented with scratch and Microsoft PowerPoint. Beverly showed me how to make animations with Microsoft PowerPoint and I showed her how to use Scratch. We decided to use Microsoft PowerPoint for creating the characters and Scratch for the animations. Mr. Damaso suggested using Camtasia for screencasting our animation. We have finished the draft of two characters, which are posted below.



 Now I went home and made a better version for Ms. Kannan:
