Lights, Camera, Draw #1 = Frankenstein

[ReggieR3mote]

Ok guys so here we are, I'm call my first sequential challenge. So you wanna get into comics right, but you don't have as much experience with storytelling as you do with just plain old drawing? Well this is an exercise intended on giving anyone of any skill level a chance to practice just that.
Objective: Gain storytelling experience while re-interpretting movie scenes into comic book pages. All decision making is up to you: what to emphasize about the story and why/how is all on you. What do you think is important here?
Rules: Take the screen shots provided and draw up at least 2 at most 4 consecutive comic book pages. Please don't trace push yourself and don't take the easy way out. *all around redraws are fine too if thats what you wanna do just hold on to the idea behind the scene
Deadline: Next month 9/15
Screenshots:


Synopsis:This scene is actually the first time that Frankenstein's monster is shown. The main action of the sequence is that the peaceful side of the creature is shown as the doctor opens a sky window and shows the creature day light and the monster seems calm. All that is shattered as the assistant steps too close with a torch and startles the creature, the doctors are forced to wrestle him down. And fade out.

So who wants to train with me?

Did photobucket drop the resolution?

[JDB1987]

Its clear, I never actually watched Frankenstein haha, so wanted to see that in action. Maybe I'll have time to get the movie and watch before I start.
