Proposal for Storyboard Assignment

First assignment for Storyboard and Character Development class is to pitch a proposal story that I will storyboard throughout the term. Using the basic 3 act structure demonstrated in class by instructor.

"The Journey"

Act I

Rick leaves his house to go to school. He has to do a little walking before arriving at his bus stop. On this particular day he decides to take his skateboard instead of walking. Rick is already running late so he has to make it to his bus on time.

Act II

Before arriving to his bus stop a dog jumps out from a house's bushes and scares Rick forcing him to try to get away from the dog by taking a different path. The dog chases Rick for a couple of blocks. The dog gets tired of chasing Rick and slows down, turns around and walks back to his home. Rick realizes he's in an unfamiliar and unsafe area. Some kids sitting on the front steps of a house want to steal Rick's skateboard and end up chasing Rick.

Act III

After all the re-routing Rick finally comes back to his bus stop and  gets on the his just in the nick of time.
