Project Journey: Finalising the ground work and starting the script.

When we finished reserching and focusing some of the ideas, now came to the part of finalsing the theme, message and story. For awhile we had finalised the name and mask design for our main character Howler.                                                                                      

Howlers mask (final design)

Now came the part where we had to finalise our theme and story. How this process went was, as a group we came up with a final theme and message and then Brendan and I decided to make seperate story synopsis' based on the theme, message, setting and character. 

    We then had a focus group read each synopsis and get feedback on each. 

    After that excercise we took elements from each synopsis and created the final synopsis and asked    the same focus group to vote on some names we thought up. The final name for the piece is "Broken".

After all that, we then decided on the final artstyle, looking at the reserch Leah and Chloe conducted and we figured and Anime inspired artstyle would suite our graphic novel. Then Brendan and I started work on the script, I wrote the prologue while Brendan went over it to edit or amend anything. At the time of writing this we are commencing chapter 1 of the graphic novel and hope to have both the Prologue and 1st chapter as a prototype.
