Here are two of my storyboards:
I had done my animatic as well:
The ten films I made for 10x10 are uploaded on Vimeo in two sets, one here:

The reflective journal can be accounted for with the previous entries in the blog
As for the development portfolio, I've already showcased my storyboards, my concept development can be seen in these drawings of animation:
in terms of actual photos in which I used for research and reference, drawings of my brothers appear in the film and there are a few photos of them I used to help get a general idea for their designs:
And for my actual finished product, the final externality project came out better than I expected and I am very proud to show it. I plan on submitting it to a festival or two in the coming week. Over the course of the semester, I found it difficult to stay on task, after taking it upon myself to make a film with the intention of submitting it to a festival, because the whole time the focus was on how I, as an artist, perceive as progress. With the improvisational bits of animation, it was simultaneously easy and difficult to surmise what was worth keeping in and what was worth doing over again. With the help of a musician friend, the musical score accompanying this piece I think makes the whole short come together in a way I never really expected going in. In conclusion, I think that the theme of this piece reflects my time spent not only on this project, but my semester as well. Being right in the middle of working on something really does bring out the best in me and I look back upon it with pride as I really do feel I spent the right amount of time where the project needed it.
