Storyboarding Task

I've found adapting my ideas visually for moving image a bit of a challenge really, as there's a lot more to consider when an image has to be animated, timing and sound are things that we don't generally have to tackle so much in illustration, so adapting to that for these storyboards was interesting.
I feel my visuals luckily lend themselves well to animation, as I'm focusing on imagery of puppetry and stage props in my development for Printed Pictures. Animating these characters could be a fun way of injecting some real life into them, hopefully making each one more individual and recognisable.
I enjoy storyboarding overall, its just the process of actually physically animating that terrifies me. I think it's because I don't have any proper experience with the software or really any kind of aptitude for new fangled and frightening computer programs. In essence, I am a grandfather confusedly toying with their grandson's Gameboy Colour at 7pm on Christmas Day, realising the future is upon me and its spooked me good.
But I really love film so storyboarding is really interesting to me, I'm looking forward to combining what Ive learned about film in regards to timing, comedy and scene setup with illustration.

Comedy is my way of dealing with the world and situations I find myself in. (can you tell by my blog's oversaturation with these little self depreciating asides in brackets? (actually the proper term for brackets in this context is parentheses. And these are parentheses inside parentheses. I mean brackets.))
Because of this, I've leant heavily on comedy for these storyboards. I think it works to diffuse some of the tension that I build up when overthinking tasks like this, and helps me to relax and focus on an idea and how that comes together. Otherwise I become a dithering mess flitting from concept to concept thinking each one is hot trash. I tried to focus on the comedic elements of my ideas for this task, as it mainly came down to me thinking "what would I like to see Shakespeare's characters do that would make ME laugh?" and going from there. That openness wasn't really easy for me but I gave it a crack and enjoyed beginning to play with these characters in motion.
