R&P Post 11: Our Storyboard

My group working on
the storyboard.

Our timeline.

We will create a timeline and then transfer our shots across to the storyboard. The timeline will..
- help us figure out timings for our shots
- save us a lot of time when creating the storyboard.
- It will make it easier to spot mistakes on our own storyboard.

We decided to create a storyboard as we had researched and looked at 'P is for Psycho' which helped us learn how to create a storyboard and see how we should place shots together to work well.

The post-it notes will also be very useful as we can color-coordinate our shots, each colour will signify a different shot type.
- Pink - titles
- Orange - master shots
- Blue - long shots
- Green - mid shots
- Yellow - close ups

By using post-it notes it meant that any mistakes that were made were very easy to change and correct.

Close-ups of storyboard.

Our prime examples will be of our character opening and then exiting a room which demonstrates continuity. These shots show our match-on action shots and allow us to make sure we get these on camera from the angles we have drawn them at in the hope that we don't have any jump cuts.

The storyboard:
- Made it a lot easier to view the shots to see if there were any continuity errors.
- Help us to identify our two different sequences-getting ready & the phone call.
- The large piece of sugar paper meant we could all work on it at the same time.
- Was created it in a linear fashion so our board reads from left to right.
- Has a total of around 30 shots to keep our opening not too long but not too short.
