Canva Creation!Well that was an exhilarating rush! I do not remember the last time I tried out so many different online generators. I originally was considering a zine of some sort but finalized on trying out more of a storyboard process. I spent a whole day investigating storyboard generators including: http://www.storyboardthat.com/, http://generator.acmi.net.au/storyboard, and https://www.pixton.com/. It did not take me long to decide that they were not the type of formatting or character imagery that I wanted. These though are just the tip of the iceberg, it is extremely overwhelming at how many generators there are for storyboards! Luckily I had been brainstorming of what kind of simplistic imagery I would want to symbolize for this weeks readings and during any spare moment I had at school I would worked on sketching out a few. By the end of Friday though I decided that I needed to unify my character look. I choose to emulate Chibi Manga/Anime Style because as an Elementary Teacher as well as a High School teacher this is an Anime Style that both age groups seem to gravitate towards and enjoy when I show them my tiny character creations. I also enjoy the similarities between Chibi and the POP figurines that are fun to collect! I failed BIG time at time management though and didn’t calculate that each sketch would take between 10-20 minutes plus photographing, emailing, uploading, and then cropping it into place. Thankfully my storyboard investigation finally paid off with the site https://www.canva.com/. I will definitely be showing this site to my students and it was relatively easy to learn to use the tools and navigate the site. Sadly midnight came too soon and I was unable to finish my final two sketches to add to Canva. I am depressed to say that this writing will not be turned in on time either but felt my Storyboard was incomplete with out my writing explanation of my journey.
