Evaluation.

Over this module I feel like I have gotten more insight in the making of storyboards.
When I first made the storyboard I had gotten a lot of advise from the lecturer about my drawings and concepts. One of the main points is that I can get into the habit of drawing in too much detail and that I drew the story board too slowly. I then decided to try and draw them as fast as I can without making a complete mess out of it and it actually looked like an idea.
Out of those whole module my favourite part was analysing a movie or animation clip because I liked looking at all the different shots and reading into them to see what each of the shots are depicting.  I chose to write about a scene in the film Tarzan because it's a very fast paced action scene.
I think my strengths in this module was being able to take a story from a peer and getting it down in drawings, I did draw them in a bit too much detail but I learned to just loosely draw the images. 
I think I still have many weaknesses to improve on but I no exactly what they are and intend to continue these skills after the module to practice them.
My weaknesses are getting things done in time because I tend to take too long on the wrong things, I also need to follow through projects without starting new ones before finishing my old ones.

In conclusion I think to improve my skills from sequential visual communication,  I need to continue practicing my skills by making story boards every excuse I can and actually finishing them. I think I will also try to count shots while watching films and animations too because it will help me become more aware of shot composition and what the angles and perspectives mean.
Finally I think I really need to make a time plan when I start my work so that I am able to get it all completed in time.
