I decided that it wasn't much good just saying 'Don't
Litter'; I wanted to SHOW that littering was bad. And not just
bad for the environment, but bad for the litterer - in other words,
that if you litter, bad things happen to you.
So I came up with a vague idea: Man litters, litter
bites back, he decides to do better next time.
Well, litter can't actually bite back, but the proverbial
banana skin came to the rescue. If he throws the skin away, then
slips on it, the lump on his head will remind him to use a bin
next time he eats a banana.
But why should he retrace his route so that his feet
meet the litter? Not too difficult - anything that motivates him
to turn about should do the trick. Maybe a stunning yellow Lamborghini
honks its horn.
Sadly, I don't have a Lamborghini. So his attention
will have to be drawn by a pretty girl.
Why should she call to him? Obviously not for boy-girl
reasons. Easy - she wants him to pick up the banana skin.
The next step is something called a storyboard.
It's simply a series of sketches that show the main
shots you intend to take. The crudest artwork will suffice. As
my example shows. All a (simple) storyboard has to do is indicate
three things for each shot:
 |
Who or what is in shot |
 |
The size of the shot |
 |
Direction of travel or look |
Have a look at the next page; you can see the vague
banana skin idea start to become pictures. |
