Evaluation- nikki

For this subject, i chose to do my story board on pollution in waters from many years ago.
My main characters are a female and male mermaid who escape the oceans and go into hiding because pirates are polluting the seas they live in and only using the mermaids to be seen as sexual objects within the waters and think that they should be seen and not heard.
Many years later a young man and his mum notice how badly polluted the waters are and are noticing all the effects of man kind on sea life.
They see dead fish and a lot of rubbish sprawled out all over the sea floor and want to make a change, so they create a survey to be given to a judge to change laws with the parliament  in the background as it was taken to court for a hearing.
Laws ended up being changed and the mermaids were free to live in open waters again.
I done many sketches trying to practice what I want to draw and to give me ideas if I want to change any ideas or features on my characters.
Also I done a brief description on my characters I want in my storyboard and writing about their purpose in the story and why they are significant to the idea as a whole.
Whilst trying to create my story board I found it very difficult to draw the story I wanted to create and found it hard to write in the speech bubbles since the space was limited.
I tried to include some feminist theories within my storyboard such as Laura Mulvey's ''Male Gaze''. And showing gender inequalities but then showing thousand of years later the differences such a female judge taking on a role which never was for a womam.
Overall, I do feel like my story board was somewhat successful and gets the story across that there is a big litter problem the world is facing and needs to be sorted out.
I do feel as if my story board is clear and informative on how badly the waters are polluted and shows the positive effects on the world as a whole if people stopped littering in the oceans.
