Assignment 3 - U C what I C

The task for this assignment is to create one sequence of images comprises between 6‐9 photographs that tells a linear photo narrative. Since I liked to watch horror movies, I would like to develop the photo narrative along that line. In the end, I decided to create a story similar to the movie 'One Missed Call'. I came out with 2 storyboards but both of the storyline are quite similar to each other. Below are my storyboard sketches:



The storyboard that I had selected is storyboard 2, The plot of my story is as follow: One day, there is this girl she picked up an unknown hand phone and decided to bring it home. Suddenly that hand phone ring and it is calling from herself. She find it weird therefore she never answer. However not long after, she received an mms. The mms showed how she died and the date showed is a few days later. In the end, this girl really died. What is shown on the hand phone became true.

During the photo taking, I encountered some problems. For the dying part, I don't know how should I show it. Should I show I'm being stab by a knife or hang by a rope? Finally I decided to show I'm being drown in a bathtub. I went to shoot in my friend's house since she have a bathtub at home. When we are in the bathroom to shoot that scene, I find it so hard to shoot it nicely. It is because to make it look real, my whole head have to be immersed into the water, which make me hard to breathe and some more I have to look natural. Therefore, I tell my friend to capture that scene fast because I can only be in the water a few seconds. However, sometime due to only that short period my friend cannot manage to shoot it nicely and I have to go into the water many times. Here are my final prototypes :


Lastly, I would like to thanks my friends who give me ideas and help me with the photo taking. <3
