Storyboard and Character Sketch Coloring




So, the storyboard is up for this weeks update. The story is pretty straight forward. Dan is listening to a lecture, falls asleep and is transported to this dream world that he has created subconsciously. Though at first surprised, Dan explores the world, going east, where he finds a village. Interestingly enough, the local villagers come out of their huts to see what's going on. One of the villagers approaches Dan and Dan extends his arm out as a gesture of friendship to the curious villager. The villager greets Dan and introduces himself as Sidewinder. He then signals to the rest of the village that it is safe to approach Dan, when suddenly they hear a loud rustling sound coming from a nearby bush. A monster suddenly emerges from the brush. Sidewinder and Dan engage the creature in battle and then finally defeat it. Sidewinder is in the process of thanking Dan when suddenly Dan hears a familiar voice calling his name. His vision suddenly starts to dim and then goes black. He wakes up back in his classroom. He then realizes that he was dreaming, but the dream seemed so real. This level ends, while making way for the second sequence of events that follow his dream. This will open up the plot in the waking world and how this ties into the dream he had. The storyboard is where I base the prototype. So far I plan on expanding the level design for the dream world. I'm also in the process of coloring many of the main characters. A preview of what I'm talking about is in the picture above. The character you see here is Spike, leader of the Road Raisers Gang. They are a group of bullies that regularly pick on Dan at Kingston High School. I plan on coloring several more characters and posting pictures of these pieces on a latter update.
