Flat plans

These will include photographs that have been edited on Photoshop through the comic book method. These will cover the majority of the blue box but for a little text box at the bottom of each for a description of what is happening. The other words that will be found on the boxes will be dialogue from the script between the characters. These will be found in speech balloons and in many if not all of the boxes. There will be at least 4 pages of the boxes as that is the minimum requirement for graphic narratives. From this it is clear 12 Photographs are needed to tell the story of jack and the beanstalk.

Once upon a time there lived a poor widow who had a son named jack and a dog-named trigger. The family was very poor and the only income they had was from the dog entering competitions and winning, however one day trigger fell and hurt his ankle and therefore could not run again. After weeks of jack trying to find a job, jack and his mother agreed to sell trigger on the market.

The next morning Jack wakes up and looks out of his window only to be shocked.

Jack climes up the beanstalk all the way to the top to see an old looking house in the middle and as he looks over he spots a woman outside, they make eye contact.

Jack is forced back down the beanstalk not understanding what was going on, only to know that breakfast was not okay at this house.

The next morning jack cannot help but to find out who that woman’s husband was. So he climbed and climbed until he got back to the top, however this time, the woman was not there. So Jack decided to let himself in the house as the door was open, Suddenly he hears the same noise as last time, the Giant starts to move. Jack panics and starts to hide

The giant sits down at the table with his wife for breakfast and he hears footsteps getting louder and louder. He turns behind him to see Jack is seen running away with a guitar. The giant jumps up and starts to sprint towards the beanstalk where jack was climbing down.

Jack starts playing guitar and eventually becomes very good so he went back to the market every day and sat on the corner of the street with only his guitar and a hat on the floor. Jack made enough money to give to his mother and buy back the family dog trigger when he saw the man who gave him the beans. Jack and his mother lived happily ever

These are examples of photographs taken and edited for the graphic novel, this shows how they can be made to look like something similar to comic books. Pictures this size will fit onto the blue squares and cover the majority of the boxes but for a few lines of text explaining the scene.

The next slide is an example of one slide that will be in the narrative, little text and some speech of the character. But more picture over text.

The Giant started chasing Jack down the Beanstalk as he wanted his Breakfast as well as the Guitar he stole. He had a look of Disbelief on is face and started to gain pace, swinging from branch to branch.

AHHH! Come here!
