Group: Storyboards

 

1. What is the purpose of storyboarding as an institutional practice?

Helps us to visualise our ideas, it also allows us to be quicker and more efficient when we are on set because we know exactly what we want to film and from what angle. It also gives an idea of what the finished product will look like for potential investors.

2. What are the challenges you encountered when carrying out this task?

It was hard to make sure we put enough detail in and that we put everything at the right frame size, i.e. to show if it was a close up or medium shot. It was also hard to covey movement on the pictures, to show how the camera moved. It was also tricky to make sure we included every single shot, so we had to add some in at the end which we had forgotten.

3. What did you learn about your concept when carrying out this task?

We learnt that our location is good because it is all filmed in one place so we don't have to do any transition shots. We also learned how many shots their can be just to cover such a small amount of actual film time. We also thought about interesting shots we could do to receive technical excellence.
