Production on hold
Follow a bicycle fanatic and experience parts of her life through the bicycles she owns. This, like most of my work, started as a course assignment and eventually turned to a personal project.
Pre-Production
Concepts
The work was spread out over a school year. The first semester was dedicated to pre-production, and the second semester for production and post production. The project initially started as a story about a bike courier titled, Delivered.
These are the beat boards.
