My Storyboard Process Statement

The idea for our video was to showcase how messy and terrible the typical to-go soy sauce packet actually is. Mostly everyone has tried to use these packets, and miserably failed, so for those who do not know, watch our video. It starts with hands desperately attempting to open the soy sauce over their meal. They are at the table and ready to eat. They finally get it open and it spills everywhere because the person opening the packet accidentally ripped it too far. After getting frustrated, they finally decide to grab scissors and open the soy sauce packet that way. Since you cannot dip into the soy sauce packet, we showed what happens if you try to pour the sauce onto the plate. A disastrous mess. It flows all around the surface. At last, we show a fresh plate of chinese food on top of a white tablecloth - a daring move for one who is about to eat soy sauce - and simple soy sauce gets brought into the film. The person opens the sauce slightly with ease and pours a beautiful “S” shape over the rice. Then the person sets the simple soy sauce down, picks up the egg roll, and proceeds to dip gently into the sauce container. No mess, no problems. A very real reenactment of the common soy sauce battle.
