Interview with a vampire story boarding activity

James Smith was born with super human abilities. He can use the power of his mind to control those around him. However, only he knows this, and as a result keeps it a secret. James is in his senior year at school. He's the best runner in the school and uses his powers in sport so the others will lose and run slower. However, he also used his powers to manipulate a young girl named Samantha into loving him. What he doesn't realize, is that although he can manipulate people into loving him, it's impossible to do the opposite, this applies to other people. Samantha had always loved a boy called Simon and cheats on James this way. James finds this out, and corners him in the chapel since Simon is the pastors son and had to go clean the pews. James, enraged, enters and argues with him. When Simon admits that he is seeing Samantha, James uses his powers to attack Simon. The attack kills him and James becomes desperate. The guilt became too agonizing for him to bear, so he turns his powers on himself.





The storyboard was meant to be of a vampire and priest. However, I thought I'd try and interpret the story boards differently, and I came up with the above. The storyboards are pretty much open to interpretation and can be turned into a thriller, drama, horror, fantasy even romance film. I had fun doing this activity and I found it interesting to hear about others' interpretations.
