visualization of french poetry "POUR TOI MON AMOUR" BY JACQUES PRÉVERT
This is my personal project which I actually started from the beginning of 2020, but was hampered by several things until it is finally finished now. This short story is adapted from a classic French poem by Jacques Prévert entitled Pour Toi Mon Amour. A love poem written in very simple language but has a very deep meaning

CREATION PROCESS
I had studied this poem many years ago when I was in college, and I still remember some of the things or meanings in this poem. So it is quite easy for me to create a visualization based on these simple poetry verses.
Here is a little process of how I compose a story board, sketch, and coloring

This is the story board, I added another scene to fit the story and the poem verses
Some sketches from the story board
