Storyboard Version 1 - The first storyboard iteration focused on mapping out the essential story beats and establishing the overall flow of the animation. As visible throughout, I was very focused on the lighting and the “reveals” of the product, as at this point I wasn’t fully sure with the final stylization of the animation. Each panel represents a key moment in the narrative, with rough sketches that prioritize composition and pacing over detailed rendering. I explored different camera angles and transitions, experimenting with how scenes would connect and build upon each other. I write notes for myself throughout the margins regarding ideas about lighting, camera movement, and environmental details that would become crucial elements in the final animation. This version served as a testing ground for narrative coherence, allowing me to identify potential pacing issues and areas where the story needed strengthening.
