Capstone Ideas

      For my capstone I've already chosen to do a comic, where you have to watch an animation to find out where it ends.  The unofficial name of my comic/animation is "The Gem Caller."  One of the new ways I thought to make this capstone more interesting was to make it a game.   Kind of a choose-your-own-avdenture-paranormal-romance story game.  That's really hard to say...  Yea, I know it's cheesy, but I thought it would be cool to do a story with several scenarios, then have a first person animation to find out how the story ends.  But now that I think of it, it doesn't really work for this story.   The other idea I had was to make a story bogged down with so much information that the reader has to decipher the truth for themselves, and then the animation would show what really happened.  My last idea is a bit harder to describe.  It has somewhat of the same premiss as the last idea, except instead of bogging down the reader with information it would be a mini treasure hunt.  Like a real life game of charades except you decipher a comic, where the reward is the animated ending.

Since the story is called "The Gem Caller," you're probably thinking the story has something to do with buried treasure.  Well it's actually a story that has to do with Lycanthropy. The concept for this capstone was to unite my favorite things such as werewolves,  and a form of story telling where the reader is allowed to get fully involved with the story.  Hence, the choose your own adventure, charades, treasure hunt aspects.  

Unfortunately there is a bit of conflict with the story I created, and the ideas I just came up with to execute the story.  I think for now, it's back to the drawing board.
