Documentation-Process

This post is for both documentation assignments.

During this project, I found it very difficult to compile my documentation, because a lot of that was still internalized. I had many conversations with my professor, in which we slowly dug out my inquiry and ideas, and we successfully got to the core of my inquiry. It took a while, but I was able to create a mind map, a spider diagram, concept sketches, storyboard, etc.

Here is a collection of the documented progress in my inquiry and project:

Story boarding: I created both a digital and paper story board in which I outlined the general trajectory of my animation, and was able to play with the concept and delivery of the story. The paper story board is much more specific and outlines the blocking of the story and scenes.

Possible “Characters”: Based off of alters (alternate personalities) that I have due to Dissociative Identity Disorder, I created characters for my animation to encompass my experience. This is much broader than the final product, however it is intended to be an evolving project that will bring in more in the future.

Safe Space Organization: I spoke in more detail about triggers and safe spaces, as well as reactions to the triggers. This is very cluttered, but I attempted to outline the concept of these escapes/safe spaces as detailed as possible.

I did not post this before posting my final project, but I did share all of these with my professor during our one on ones.
