Assignment #7- Storyboard: Whiskers
In this final assignment all students had the choice to free-style their own piece of work. I decided to illustrate a short story about a day in my life.
The day consists of me waking up early for work in a depressed state of mind along side my cat, Whiskers. In the elevator at my job I bump into a cute girl, Dennise. Immediately, I felt a connection with her. The whole day I can’t stop thinking about this one individual and how she sparks my emotions.
My boss ends the thrill of happiness with a stake of papers that is due today. With little time, I become overwhelmed with the work and again become sad. On my way back home I open the door to realize the one true friend that will always be looking forward to my presence, Whiskers. A smile yet again.
