Today I went to paint class with my mother.. Not to paint, but to learn to draw better! ^^ The teacher there can give me assignments to do, so I can use that for my portfolio.. She told me to make storyboard, like they use for movies.
Because my dream is to work for the Walt Disney Company one day, I have to work real hard, and learn things like this and draw like crazy.. xD
The teacher told me to go brainstorm and think of a nice little story, and after that I had to make a mini version of the storyboard, and then I can make the real thing.. She told me to start with a subject, and write down as many words as I could think of that had to deal with that subject.. As a example we chose marshmallows and we started brainstorming xD
Then I had to do it and I always look around me for subjects, cause I get the craziest ideas from simple things.. I looked in front of me, and on top of the closet in front of me were two candles.
So, candles were my subject.. xD
Here are the notes I made:
The story I made is a little love story about two candles, and in the end the girl candle dies, and then the other dies too.. It's tragic lol xD
okay, here's the story (please don't use this story for own use):
One candle's being placed on the plate and the candle is lit. The candle opens it's eyes, and it is a male candle. The male candle is a bit bored and looks around him, but he's all alone.
Then another candle's being placed on the plate and is lit. The candle opens it's eyes, and it turns out to be a female candle. The male candle sees her and he falls in love with her as soon as he sees her. Then the female notices the male candle and get's shy because he's looking at her like that. Then the male candle tries to impress the female and she starts to like him.
Then they make fun, they dance, they 'kiss' (here they both bend over and their little fires touch).
Then the male candle sees that the female is melting and she's getting shorter and shorter very fast. Then the female notices it too and she get's scared. The candles don't have any hands, so the male candle can't do anything to help her. She shrinks, and shrinks, until there's only candle tallow left and her fire goes out. The male candle is very sad and then he shrinks very fast too because of his sorrow and in the end his fire goes out too.
The End.
That is the little story! ^^ When I started drawing it, it actually made me quit sad xD I usually cry at stories like this, even if they are animations..
The storyboard sketches are made are below:

I will post more of the progress I will make in this project! Also I still have to write a report from my last Mika gig where I performed with Mika in the Mika fan choir during 8 songs ^^ So please look forward to that!! :D
Byeee! X
*PMD: Post Mika Depression: When a fan has been to a gig (or more) and gets depressive because she got back on earth from Planet MIKA, where everything is perfect, where there are no worries and everyone is nice and fun. Also, when havin PMD one realises that one won't see MIKA for a long time.
