The storyboard I have produced very much reflects my original intentions. I wanted to produce something that wasn't offensive to anyone, had some classic Spongebob humour in it and I think I've done that perfectly. There are no weapons or offensive words/images that could discriminate any age, race or gender and I feel I have done enough to captivate the audience.
Compared to a professional piece, I think my comic strip puts up good competition. It has a clean and well thought out template, a decent plot, the typical comic fonts and appeal to it, and generally looks professionally done (although I believe there are a few area's where I could improve).
I think I could improve on the plot a little, and make it a longer strip as it seems like its been forced onto one page, and I could've pushed it onto two. I think I did well in the template, layout and dialogue areas though :D

Reflecting on U67: Evaluating the Game Trailer storyboard.
The storyboard was created using Comic Life, a program which gives you the necessary tools to create a comic with different fonts (like the 'KAPOW!' font) templates and custom templates, different speech bubbles, and descriptive boxes.
The entire process was a learning curve for me as I've never used the program before, but after creating a comic with it, I've grown accustomed to it and find it very handy to have. I found that people were using Photoshop to create their comics and took nearly twice as long to produce their comic.
The story is about Spongebob and Patrick going to Sandy's house to go meet her. Her house is full of snow as its hibernation season, and her being a squirrel, is hibernating. Patrick and Spongebob see this as an opportunity to mess around in Sandy's house while she sleeps. In the end they make too much noise and Sandy wakes up in a cranky state, and attacks Patrick.
The empty page is the template I used for my Comic strip, it is a custom made one that I modified from one of the preset templates.
