Bobby’s Dream

Bobby is a young innocent pig that has been raised in a barn and has never seen outside its fence and walls. The first panel will be a long shot with Bobby sleeping in the barn to show where the story is taking place and how peacefully content Bobby is in the barn.  The second panel will be a close up of Bobby sleeping in the barn done in the synthetic cubism way to portray that he is in a deep comfortable dream state.  The Third panel will show Bobby’s floating dream body happily leaving him to a new world beyond the barn and this will be done in the pop art style to show the excitement and otherworldly dream state he will be in.  So then the fourth panel shows Bobby walking out of the barn and the fifth will show Bobby way beyond the fence and in the big open field where he has never been before.  He is now feeling very nervous and hesitant, especially because the sun light is going away.  Then the nightmare part really sets in and Bobby gets caught in a lightening and thunderstorm way far away from his home.  The seventh panel will show how truly scared Bobby is and how vibrant the storm is behind him by doing this panel in the expressive line style.  The storm starts to slow a little and Bobby stays low with his eyes closed waiting for the storm to pass.  When it finally does he notices that the ground is a new different substance and he’s not sure what to think of it.  So he pokes at it and looks at it while being very confused.  So the tenth panel shows Bobby’s point of view looking at the mud in the black and white style.  I chose black and white for this panel to portray how foreign this “new substance” is to Bobby.  So Bobby notices a worm playing in the new substance under him and stares at it.  He saw how much fun the worm was having in the mud so he decided himself to roll around in the mud.  He is now feeling happier then ever and liberated having ventured outside of the barn and discovering a new substance that is so wonderful.  Then the thirteenth panel reveals that Bobby is still in the barn and he is now rolling in the hay that was all around him while still expressing pure bliss.  The thirteenth panel will be done in metallic art nouveau style to show the glittering and flowing euphoria he is now in after going in to his dream and escaping the storm nightmare and discovering mud.

When is the final due?

Should I do the five panels in watercolor and ink to continue the same look as the original eight panels?

The sketches will get more depth to the panels that need depth once I add color to them.

Thanks,

Sketches for Extension of Bobby’s Story

The first panel will be a synthetic cubist type of technique of Bobby sleeping.  I thought synthetic would work well here because it can be dreamy looking.  The third panel will be in the Pop Art technique of Bobby’s dream figure leaving his body in fluorescent colors to show the excitement of what will happen in his dream.  In the middle of the storm the 7^th panel will show an expressionistic line technique of Bobby frightened.  After the storm when Bobby sticks his hoof in the mud he will stare at it, as shown in panel 10, and it will appear black and white because it is so foreign to him.  After Bobby rolls around in the “mud” it will show in the last panel how Bobby is actually rolling in the hay where his dream started.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here are a number of examples that I would most likely resemble in my 5 added panels.

 

 

 

Bobby’s Story

Quiet and rather conservative for a pig, Bobby keeps to himself in the barn.  He is very cautious and unsure of anything new.  He is extremely sensitive and senses any difference in his environment; which rarely happens in the dry and fenced in barn he knows. One day Bobby noticed that the gate of the fence surrounding the barn was wide open.   So he decided to walk over to it and look more closely at what was outside the fence.  He became curious and very slowly and cautiously looked both ways before he decided to wonder out into the field.  He walked very far into the field and became worried when the sky began to darken.  Then along came monstrous lighting streaks followed by mass amounts of rain that poured down in the open fields.  Bobby ducked down from the craziness that was going on above him and squeezed his eyes closed while he hovered and shook all worried to death.  After the rain finally let up, Bobby noticed that the dry ground he knew was different; the dirt had turned into mud.  He stared at it for a while and poked at it with his hoof, wondering what on earth this messy substance was.  Then he noticed a little worm that was more than happy to squirm through the messy mud.  Bobby saw how happy the worm was and became intrigued with this new ground in the open field.  So Bobby made a life changing move and dove into the mud and rolled around and around in it.  After leaving the barn, Bobby had become a liberated pig and felt more comfortable and enthusiastic after his experience in the mud in the open fields.

Bobby the Pig’s Story

Quiet and rather conservative for a pig, Bobby keeps to himself out in the fields.  He is very cautious and unsure of anything new.  He is extremely sensitive and senses any difference in his environment; which rarely happens in the dry field he knows.  Another characteristic of Bobby is that he becomes scared very easily.  So one day while Bobby was standing alone in the field, a storm approached and there is more thunder and lightening in the sky then ever before.   Then along with the monstrous lighting there was a mass amount of rain that poured down in his field.  Bobby ducked down from the craziness that was going on above him and squeezed his eyes closed while hovered and shaken all worried to death.  After the rain finally let up Bobby noticed that the dry ground he knew was different, the dirt had turned into mud.  He stared at it for awhile and poked at it with his hoof, wondering what on earth this messy substance was.  Then he noticed a little worm that was more than happy to squirm through the messy mud.  Bobby saw how happy the worm was and became intrigued with this new ground in his field.  So Bobby made a life changing move and dove into the mud and rolled around and around in it.  Bobby had become a liberated pig and felt more comfortable and enthusiastic after his experience in the mud.

Bobby the Pig’s Story

Born on a small farm three weeks ago, Bobby has never seen beyond the dimly lit walls of the barn that his mother has protectively raised him in.   His mother always brought him food and would hover over him anytime he moved.  She knew that the farmers were going to use them for food eventually and wanted to escape.  So they did just that and snuck out in the middle of the day into the dry fields far away from the farm.  Bobby is very timid and slightly paranoid because he had no idea what to expect outside of the farm where he had been fed and watched over constantly.  Later in the day his mother had to go and get food for them to eat, so she left him alone and told him not to move so that he would not be harmed.  Bobby stood alone in the dry field scared to even turn his head.  He becomes scared stiff when a worm passes by and even more scared when a thunderstorm approaches.  But as soon as the rain hits the ground and mud begins to form beneath his feet his pokes at it and eventually starts to roll around in it and feels very comfortable.
