Extra Storyboard Panels

I added a few extra panels to my storyboard today.
The first is going to go at the very beginning of the animation. It's the last few lines from Robert Frost's poem The Road Not Taken. I looked at it before as research but recently I had a seminar on Intertextuality which is the use of one text to inform the readers understanding of another text. Texts in this case can be anything which can be read, films, advertising, paintings, photography, comics, music, poetry etc. So I am using this quote to inform the readers understanding that it's about the choices one makes in their life.


The next is frame 22 1/2. It's a cutaway, just a shot to inform the world I have created. It's a close up of a fallen pillar. From the gap the fallen pillar can be seen more of the blue bio-luminescent light that's generally mostly blocked by the pillars.

Frame 45 1/2 is another cutaway but this time it's a shot of the goat in the pen beside Father where he awaits the return of his son. The goat is draped in a velvet cloak with a similar mark to that found on the coin. I added this to show that goats are worshiped in their community.

The final new image 49 1/2 is included out of necessity more than anything. I forgot to include the fact that he walked down the road to the left in the first storyboard and needed to include it for clarity.
