In this project, I was tasked with constructing a visual Storyboard of Henry IV Part One on a 16' by 2' paper scroll. ​

​

The story of Henry IV Part contains persistent celestial metaphors, as the young and reckless prince gradually rises to be worthy of his Father's crown. This process is described throughout the story using the sun moon and planets as metaphor.  

​

With this in mind, and with the young Henry's similarity to lovable rogues from science fiction, I decided to depict my storyboard through the lens of a space opera, using the sun and moon as a framing device.
