After pitching my concept, I received great feedback which supported my idea and gave feedback on how I could develop my work further and how to improve it.
One of the questions asked was how the film might lead to merchandise. The idea of profiting through related movie merchandise hadn't occurred to me until that point. However, looking at the source material, I believe a film adaptation could successfully create merchandise due to the iconography. Imagery such as paper birds, butterflies and snails are all essential to the story, so this could lead to some interesting designs for notepads, pencil cases, binders, etc. (I chose classroom supplies as the young target audience will be school children, so this products will also benefit them).Another idea that came to mind was marketing origami books/kits, thus staying with the theme of the movie whilst still creating a product that the audience would enjoy.
After pitching my concept and presenting my storyboard, I was adviced on how to improve my work. Potential storyboard improvements listed included...
*Using scripted quotes to help with narration and make the storyboard more understandable in terms of when these images take place in the story and what they're meant to show.
*Include sound effects (SFX) to accompany the visuals. This will help with production and tell how the scene should sound as well as look. This helps with the scenes' intended atmosphere.
*Present a rough time frame for how long these visuals should last to help with editing production and give a better understnading of how long the scene should last.
I made these changes to my storyboard and highlighted the alterations in red.
