This is our storyboard. Maddy did the art while Nicole and I tried to help devise our filming plan and plot. The story is about a man seeking revenge on his cheating wife.

Offline     This opening begins with credits, and then a mysterious figure on a girls instagram page. It then reveals the girl he's looking at is in a cage. Having flashbacks to times when she was on her phone or just living a normal life. It then cuts off as she wakes up and realizes where she is. This was a good opening but I definitely liked Rise better, this one was harder to understand. Dear Lover     This one is about a girl speaking in an interview. She is sitting a...
