Evaluation
What did you like about your image?
The first image I like the way I’ve used the shapes to create the main structure for the house. I also like
how I elevated one side of the houses using stilts. Another good thing about my image was how I put
shapes together to form other shapes for example the clouds. I like how the clouds looks puffy and
pillow like because of how I used the shapes.
The second image I like how the dogs general shape is displayed. It’s very recognizable to the human
eye and from long distance looks nice. The problem with the dog image is that there is basically no
detail on the dog, the shapes look like they have been stuck onto the dogs face which is why I personally
don’t like it.
What would you improve if you did it again?
For the first image I would definitely increase the detail in the image as I didn’t include much on the
house. Another thing I would improve was the colour of the house, I feel that the house colour isn’t
very realistic and doesn’t give a house vibe. I would also make the grass look more realistic.
For the second image, the main thing I would improve is the colour used in this image. I didn’t think
about the colours very much even though they play a vital role in the image. Another thing I would
improve was add in more details into the image for example, more highlights and dark areas.
Rotoscope
Evaluation
What did you like about your image?
For this image I like how I used the Polygonal Lasso tool to create the smallest
details e.g. freckles on the persons face. When you view the image from far
away it actually looks real. This is because the image has a large amount of
detail retained in the face of the person. I also like the eyebrows and how the
gradient tool was used to show the direction of lighting which gives the image
a 3D effect. Overall I think I have done a good job from only using the
Polygonal Lasso tool to create the image.
What would you improve if you did it again?
The first thing I would improve was to give the face a larger gradient so there
is more shadow on one side of the face then the other to show the direction
of light which would then create the 3D effect. Secondly I would change all
the areas of the face that have hair. I would also give the ear more detail as in
depth.
Film Quotes
Evaluation
What did you like about your image?
I like how I’ve used my own quotes on random images. I believe they both
look good especially the lone survivor quote. I like how it displays one
character in the film looking in a certain direction. It makes it look
professional and well designed.
What would you improve if you did it
again?
If I was going to improve my work I would definitely do more film quotes.
Since I’ve only done two it doesn’t look as good as it could. I could have
edited both the images more with different types of filters. If I was going to
do film quotes again I would definitely do more of them and make sure the
quotes were my own thought up quotes from each film.
Text Based
Evaluation
What did you like about your image?
I like how my image was overlaid with an image inside of the letters.
This allowed me to customize the letters however with an image of my
choice. I also like the way I used the skew tool to mess with the shape
of the text. Another effect I liked using on the text was how you can
create glows, shadows and different types of gradients to change how
the letters look.
What would you improve if you did it again?
As I enjoyed creating the largest image with the overlaid mountain
background I would definitely create another one of those. One thing I
would improve on was experiment more with the transforming of the
image e.g. warping, skewing and distorting.
Comic Book
Evaluation
What did you like about your image?
I like how I’ve used different filters on different images and used different colourizations to make
one of them multi coloured. I personally like the J.Cole image the best because of the triangle
colours. It sort of looks like an album cover image that you would use for your cd case. I also like
how you can make as many layers as you want to give different affects. You can come up with
really good images with loads of different effects.
What would you improve if you did it again?
If I was going to improve my work, I would definitely create more of these filtered images. I would
also make one with loads of different filters and colourizations. I would also use another image
behind the original to bring a cool texture in making the image look more trippy. I would also
change from using actual people to scenery like mountains and animals.
Photo Story
Photo Story
Evaluation
What did you like about your image?
I like how simple the images are. They present the story nicely, this is helped
by the facial expressions and body positions in each shot. You can clearly see
what the main character is doing and what’s happening in each shot.
What would you improve if you did it again?
The main way I could improve this would be to shoot a better story. The
original story was put together in a few minutes and looks very boring. I could
also edit the images in a more interesting way. For example, put them on a
large page spaced out. Put the text next to them or on them like a comic
book. This would have made the story more interesting.
Illustration
Evaluation
What did you like about your image?
One thing I like about my images is that I thought of the
character myself with no help. This makes the character
original and creative. I like how I gave the image depth by
creating shadows for some of the objects in the image.
Another thing I like about the image is how I made the
character and table three dimensional.
What would you improve if you did it again? The first thing I
would improve is the colours in the image. Next time I would
try to make the colours more heavy so that the scanner would
pick them up better. Another thing I would change is the size
of the character as I made it tool small. I would also include
more objects in the image to make it more busy as the image
looks very passive.
Narrative Environment
Evaluation
What did you like about your image?
The main thing I like in this image is how I used the direction of light to create
shadows behind the objects in the images. This makes the image look more
realistic and cinematic. I used rotoscoping on the tractor which also turned
out to look good.
What would you improve if you did it again?
I would change the image totally, the whole scene is nice and all but it looks
to passive for my liking. I would prefer a more busy image for example a
forest. There would be more objects in the forest are the floor would be more
detailed.

Story Overview
When she gets to the lime tree the kings daughter enjoys throwing a golden ball in the air and catching to cheer herself up. One
day she throws the ball up but throws it too high and misses catching it. The ball rolls down a deep dark hole into a werewolf den.
The werewolf comes out of the hole with the golden ball. The daughter asks for the ball back and the werewolf says. If you allow
me to live with you and eat your food I will give you the ball back. The kings daughter promises the werewolf and the werewolf
hands the ball back to her. As the werewolf goes back into his hole to grab his things the kings daughter runs away from the den as
fast as she can into the castle. That same night whilst the king and his daughter were eating their dinner they hear a knock at their
door. The kings daughter runs over to open it and it met again with the werewolf, she instantly slams the door on the werewolf’s
face and sits back down. The king was shocked and order his daughter to open the door and let the visitor in. The daughter then
lets the werewolf in and sits back down at the table. The king asks the werewolf why he was here and the werewolf explains how
the princess promised him he could live and eat with her if he retrieved her golden ball. The king asks his daughter if this was true
and she said yes. That night whilst the werewolf was sleeping the princess pushed him out of bed because he was sleeping too
close to her. The werewolf ended up banging his head on the floor so hard that he turned into his human form. The princess
instantly fell in love with his looks and crowned him a prince as they both got married a few days later.

Audience
The target audience age for this book will be for 3-7 year olds. This book is more of a fairy tale
which makes it appealing to the younger generation. This book does not have a specific gender
that it’s aimed at but I can see more girls being interested in this book then boys as the prince
and princess get married in the end. The class wont make a different to who reads this book as
it’s a fairy tale. The book will be in English so its location will be in English speaking countries. I
believe this book will suit its target audience because it’s a fairy tale and has a happy ending.
The visuals will appeal to the younger generation as it contains a werewolf, castle, prince and
princess. These are all factors that play into younger generation books and story’s.
Production Methods
When creating my pages I will most likely use the polygonal lasso tool to cut out my
characters and some of the background. I will also use the cut-out filter tool found
in the filter gallery to make the images look more cartoon. I will use the dodge and
burn tools to create highlights and shadows in the backgrounds and characters
when they are complete to give them more depth. I might use shapes to create
objects in the backgrounds for example trees. I would create a rectangle and then
use the warp tool to change it’s shape to make it look more tree like.
What are the strengths of the proposal? What areas of the proposal need further work?
A lot of in-depth analysis and research in to what
the synopsis is and how you are going to present
the story in the page. You have explained
everything in perfect detail which is a lot better than
just typing a couple of words without going in-
depth. Like a lot of people.
Their isn’t really anything I can fault this on. You
have prepared your work brilliantly.
What are the strengths of the idea generation? What areas of idea generation could have been
further developed?
A lot of thought gone into what you are going to do
with your story, who's in it, what are the locations
and what’s the story. You have structured it very
well too.
There is not much I can critique. Maybe a little bit
more detail as to who the characters are.
What are the strengths of the proposal? What areas of the proposal need further work?
1. Highly detailed in every aspect
2. Clear explanation of story, I can clearly
understand the whole story in detail.
3. The structure of your book and work flow is
clear
1. Story overview starts abruptly without some
introduction or backstory.
What are the strengths of the idea generation? What areas of idea generation could have been
further developed?
1. Extremely detailed 1. N/A
What are the strengths of the proposal? What areas of the proposal need further work?
In your proposal you went into detail with how you
would create your story and all your characters. I
feel as if this helps more to see what it is your
wanting to accomplish in the end. Another strength
you have is that you managed to explain in a lot of
detail of what you want to happen in your story as
well so that people can see what your wanting to
do. It helps when people are trying to picture how
your story is going to work.
I think what needs further work in your proposal is
your target audience I feel like you could go into
more detail with this. Explain more who your
audience is but also how your story is going to
appeal to them and what aspects of it will stand out
a lot more to them.
What are the strengths of the idea generation? What areas of idea generation could have been
further developed?
You’ve really gone into depth with your ideas and
what you have in your head with what you may
want to do. You’ve managed to plan both of them
really well so if anything was to happen you have a
back up.
Also you have a lot of fonts and photos to help you
when it comes to making your story book as you do
have a massive range to choose from.
Overall your idea generation is really planned out
and will help you a lot when you come to actually
make your story book. I think the only development
that I have is that you put your mind map onto two
pages as it is very hard to read what it is your
wanting to may be accomplish.
Feedback Summary
Sum up your feedback.
Explain how the book appeals to your target audience more. Put the idea generation
mind map on two pages as it is hard to read.
Which parts of your feedback do you agree with and why?
I agree with all the feedback I have received. Both points made are correct and do need
improvements.
Which parts of your feedback do you disagree with and why?
I do not disagree with any feedback. This is because I also can see the problems.
Original Script
Original Script goes here with link to where it came from
Narrator 1: Once upon a time there was a princess who went out
into a forest and sat next to a cool well. She took great
pleasure in throwing a golden ball into the air and catching
it, but once it went too high. She held out her hand with her
fingers curved to catch it, but it fell to the ground and
rolled and rolled right into the water.
Narrator 2: Horrified, the princess followed it with her eyes, but
the well was so deep that she could not see its
bottom. Then she began to cry bitterly.
Princess: I'd give anything, if only I could get my ball back. I’d
give up my clothes, my precious stones, my pearls--
anything in the world.
Narrator 1: At this a frog stuck his head out of the water
Frog: Princess, why are you crying so bitterly?
Princess: Oh, you ugly frog, how can you help me? My golden
ball has fallen into the well.
Frog: I do not want your pearls, your precious stones, and your
clothes, but if you'll accept me as a companion and let me
sit next to you and eat from your plate and sleep in your
bed, and if you'll love and cherish me, then I'll bring your
ball back to you.
Princess: (Thinking to herself) What is this stupid frog trying to
say?
After all, he does have to stay here in the water. But still,
maybe he can get my ball. I'll go ahead and say yes.
(To the frog) Yes, to everything you’ve asked. Just bring
me back my golden ball.
Narrator 2: The frog stuck his head under the water and dove to
the
bottom. He returned a short time later with the golden ball
in his mouth and threw it onto the land.
Narrator 1: When the princess saw her ball once again, she rushed
toward it, picked it up, and was so happy to have it in her
hand again, that she could think of nothing else than to run
home with it.
Frog: Wait, princess! I can’t run like you can! Take me with you
like you promised!
Narrator 2: The princess paid no attention to to the frog.
Narrator 1: The next day the princess was sitting at her table when she
heard something coming up the marble steps: plop, plop.
Then there came a knock at the door.
Frog: Princess, princess, open the door for me!
Narrator 2: She opened the door and saw it was the frog, whom she
had put completely out of her mind. Frightened, she
slammed the door shut and returned to the table.
King: Daughter, why are you afraid?
Princess: There is a disgusting frog out there who got my golden ball
out of the water. I promised him that he could be my
companion, but I didn't think that he could leave his water.
Now he is just outside the door and wants to come in.
Frog: Youngest daughter of the king,
Open up the door for me,
Don't you know what yesterday,
You said to me down by the well?
Youngest daughter of the king,
Open up the door for me.
King: What you have promised, you must keep. Go and let the
frog in.
Narrator 1: The princess obeyed, and the frog hopped in, then he
followed the princess to her chair.
Frog: Lift me up onto your chair and let me sit next to you.
Princess: I will not!
King: My daughter, you must!

Narrator 2: So the princess did as she was told and placed the frog on
the table next to her.
Frog: Now push your golden plate closer. I want to eat from it.
Princess: I will not!
King: Daughter, you must!
Narrator 1: So the princess did as she was told and moved the golden
plate closer to the frog. The frog ate until he could eat no
more.
Frog: Now I am tired and want to sleep. Take me to your room,
and make a place for me in your bed, so that I can sleep
beside you.
Narrator 2: The princess was horrified when she heard that. She was
afraid of the cold frog and could barely stand to touch him,
and yet he was supposed to lie next to her in her bed. She
began to cry.
Princess: I will not!
King: (Angrily) Daughter, you should not despise the one who
helped you when you were in trouble! You must do as you
promised.
Narrator 1: There was no helping it; she had to do what her father
wanted, but in her heart she was bitterly upset. She picked
up the frog with two fingers, carried him to her room, and
placed him in a corner. Then she climbed into her bed.
Frog: I am tired, Princess, and I want to sleep as much as you.
Lift me into your bed, or I will tell your father.
Narrator 2: So filled with contempt, the princess picked up the frog.
But instead of laying him next to herself, she threw him
as hard as she could against the wall.
Princess: Now you will leave me in peace, you ugly, odious frog!
Narrator 1: But when he fell down, he was no longer a frog, but a
handsome young prince.
Prince: I was bewitched by a wicked witch, and only you could
rescue me from the well. Tomorrow we will go together to
my kingdom.
Narrator 2: And so they became dear companions and were wed the
next morning. The prince's faithful servant, Henry,
arrived in a splendid carriage drawn by eight horses and
decorated with feathers and glistening with gold.
Narrator 1: Faithful Henry had been so saddened by the prince's
enchantment that he had placed three iron bands around
his heart to keep it from bursting in sorrow.
Narrator 2: The prince climbed into the carriage with the princess. His
faithful servant stood ready to drive them to his kingdom.
After they had gone a short distance, the prince heard a
loud crack as if something had broken.
Prince: Henry, the carriage is breaking apart.
Henry: No, my lord, the carriage it's not breaking. That is a band
that surrounds my heart, that suffered such great pain
when you were sitting in the well, when you were a frog.
Narrator 1: Once again, and then once again the prince heard a
cracking sound and thought that the carriage was
breaking apart, but it was the bands springing from
faithful Henry's heart because his master was now
free and happy.

Once upon a time there was a Princess that lived in the King’s castle. Whenever she got upset she would run into the dark forest to find her lime

    Evaluation What did youlike about your image? One thing I like about my images is that I thought of the character myself with no help. This makes the character original and creative.

What would you improve if you did it again? The first thing I would improve is the colours in the image. Next time I would try to make the colours more heavy so that the scanner would pick them up better. Another thing I would change is the size of the character as I made it tool small. I would also include more objects in the image to make it more busy as the image looks very passive.

    Evaluation What did youlike about your image? The main thing I like in this image is how I used the direction of light to create shadows behind the objects in the images. This makes the image look more realistic and cinematic. I used rotoscoping on the tractor which also turned out to look good. What would you improve if you did it again? I would change the image totally, the whole scene is nice and all but it looks to passive for my liking. I would prefer a more busy image for example a forest. There would be more objects in the forest are the floor would be more detailed.

    Deadline 7th April Audience The targetaudience age for this book will be for 3-7 year olds. This book is more of a fairy tale which makes it appealing to the younger generation. This book does not have a specific gender that it’s aimed at but I can see more girls being interested in this book then boys as the prince and princess get married in the end. The class wont make a different to who reads this book as it’s a fairy tale. The book will be in English so its location will be in English speaking countries. I believe this book will suit its target audience because it’s a fairy tale and has a happy ending. The visuals will appeal to the younger generation as it contains a werewolf, castle, prince and princess. These are all factors that play into younger generation books and story’s. Production Methods When creating my pages I will most likely use the polygonal lasso tool to cut out my characters and some of the background. I will also use the cut-out filter tool found in the filter gallery to make the images look more cartoon. I will use the dodge and burn tools to create highlights and shadows in the backgrounds and characters when they are complete to give them more depth. I might use shapes to create objects in the backgrounds for example trees. I would create a rectangle and then use the warp tool to change it’s shape to make it look more tree like.

    What are thestrengths of the proposal? What areas of the proposal need further work? A lot of in-depth analysis and research in to what the synopsis is and how you are going to present the story in the page. You have explained everything in perfect detail which is a lot better than just typing a couple of words without going in- depth. Like a lot of people. Their isn’t really anything I can fault this on. You have prepared your work brilliantly. What are the strengths of the idea generation? What areas of idea generation could have been further developed? A lot of thought gone into what you are going to do with your story, who's in it, what are the locations and what’s the story. You have structured it very well too. There is not much I can critique. Maybe a little bit more detail as to who the characters are.

    What are thestrengths of the proposal? What areas of the proposal need further work? In your proposal you went into detail with how you would create your story and all your characters. I feel as if this helps more to see what it is your wanting to accomplish in the end. Another strength you have is that you managed to explain in a lot of detail of what you want to happen in your story as well so that people can see what your wanting to do. It helps when people are trying to picture how your story is going to work. I think what needs further work in your proposal is your target audience I feel like you could go into more detail with this. Explain more who your audience is but also how your story is going to appeal to them and what aspects of it will stand out a lot more to them. What are the strengths of the idea generation? What areas of idea generation could have been further developed? You’ve really gone into depth with your ideas and what you have in your head with what you may want to do. You’ve managed to plan both of them really well so if anything was to happen you have a back up. Also you have a lot of fonts and photos to help you when it comes to making your story book as you do have a massive range to choose from. Overall your idea generation is really planned out and will help you a lot when you come to actually make your story book. I think the only development that I have is that you put your mind map onto two pages as it is very hard to read what it is your wanting to may be accomplish.

    Original Script Original Scriptgoes here with link to where it came from Narrator 1: Once upon a time there was a princess who went out into a forest and sat next to a cool well. She took great pleasure in throwing a golden ball into the air and catching it, but once it went too high. She held out her hand with her fingers curved to catch it, but it fell to the ground and rolled and rolled right into the water. Narrator 2: Horrified, the princess followed it with her eyes, but the well was so deep that she could not see its bottom. Then she began to cry bitterly. Princess: I'd give anything, if only I could get my ball back. I’d give up my clothes, my precious stones, my pearls-- anything in the world. Narrator 1: At this a frog stuck his head out of the water Frog: Princess, why are you crying so bitterly? Princess: Oh, you ugly frog, how can you help me? My golden ball has fallen into the well. Frog: I do not want your pearls, your precious stones, and your clothes, but if you'll accept me as a companion and let me sit next to you and eat from your plate and sleep in your bed, and if you'll love and cherish me, then I'll bring your ball back to you. Princess: (Thinking to herself) What is this stupid frog trying to say? After all, he does have to stay here in the water. But still, maybe he can get my ball. I'll go ahead and say yes. (To the frog) Yes, to everything you’ve asked. Just bring me back my golden ball. Narrator 2: The frog stuck his head under the water and dove to the bottom. He returned a short time later with the golden ball in his mouth and threw it onto the land. Narrator 1: When the princess saw her ball once again, she rushed toward it, picked it up, and was so happy to have it in her hand again, that she could think of nothing else than to run home with it. Frog: Wait, princess! I can’t run like you can! Take me with you like you promised! Narrator 2: The princess paid no attention to to the frog. Narrator 1: The next day the princess was sitting at her table when she heard something coming up the marble steps: plop, plop. Then there came a knock at the door. Frog: Princess, princess, open the door for me! Narrator 2: She opened the door and saw it was the frog, whom she had put completely out of her mind. Frightened, she slammed the door shut and returned to the table. King: Daughter, why are you afraid? Princess: There is a disgusting frog out there who got my golden ball out of the water. I promised him that he could be my companion, but I didn't think that he could leave his water. Now he is just outside the door and wants to come in. Frog: Youngest daughter of the king, Open up the door for me, Don't you know what yesterday, You said to me down by the well? Youngest daughter of the king, Open up the door for me. King: What you have promised, you must keep. Go and let the frog in. Narrator 1: The princess obeyed, and the frog hopped in, then he followed the princess to her chair. Frog: Lift me up onto your chair and let me sit next to you. Princess: I will not! King: My daughter, you must!

    Original Script Original Scriptgoes here with link to where it came from Narrator 2: So the princess did as she was told and placed the frog on the table next to her. Frog: Now push your golden plate closer. I want to eat from it. Princess: I will not! King: Daughter, you must! Narrator 1: So the princess did as she was told and moved the golden plate closer to the frog. The frog ate until he could eat no more. Frog: Now I am tired and want to sleep. Take me to your room, and make a place for me in your bed, so that I can sleep beside you. Narrator 2: The princess was horrified when she heard that. She was afraid of the cold frog and could barely stand to touch him, and yet he was supposed to lie next to her in her bed. She began to cry. Princess: I will not! King: (Angrily) Daughter, you should not despise the one who helped you when you were in trouble! You must do as you promised. Narrator 1: There was no helping it; she had to do what her father wanted, but in her heart she was bitterly upset. She picked up the frog with two fingers, carried him to her room, and placed him in a corner. Then she climbed into her bed. Frog: I am tired, Princess, and I want to sleep as much as you. Lift me into your bed, or I will tell your father. Narrator 2: So filled with contempt, the princess picked up the frog. But instead of laying him next to herself, she threw him as hard as she could against the wall. Princess: Now you will leave me in peace, you ugly, odious frog! Narrator 1: But when he fell down, he was no longer a frog, but a handsome young prince. Prince: I was bewitched by a wicked witch, and only you could rescue me from the well. Tomorrow we will go together to my kingdom. Narrator 2: And so they became dear companions and were wed the next morning. The prince's faithful servant, Henry, arrived in a splendid carriage drawn by eight horses and decorated with feathers and glistening with gold. Narrator 1: Faithful Henry had been so saddened by the prince's enchantment that he had placed three iron bands around his heart to keep it from bursting in sorrow. Narrator 2: The prince climbed into the carriage with the princess. His faithful servant stood ready to drive them to his kingdom. After they had gone a short distance, the prince heard a loud crack as if something had broken. Prince: Henry, the carriage is breaking apart. Henry: No, my lord, the carriage it's not breaking. That is a band that surrounds my heart, that suffered such great pain when you were sitting in the well, when you were a frog. Narrator 1: Once again, and then once again the prince heard a cracking sound and thought that the carriage was breaking apart, but it was the bands springing from faithful Henry's heart because his master was now free and happy.
