Storyboards

When we were first given the task of creating the opening to a thriller film, we thought out and storyboarded an idea that we did not use in the end. However, I thought that I would put my storyboard on the blog as it shows some of the thought processes of the group and the shots that we kept and how our idea developed over time.

ORIGINAL STORYBOARD:




There was a slight change, and Sam Cameron became a part of our group. A cellar then become available through the fact that Sam's mum owns a shop in North Walsham. We changed our idea as we believed that it followed more conventions and would make a more effective film overall.

Shots that are similar in both ideas include the shot from inside of the boot - we kept this as we thought that not only would this be quite a unique idea, but it would also follow the convention of a claustrophic space. We also thought that the effect the light would have when the boot was opened would create a good atmosphere in the film.

NEW STORYBOARD:




Although I'm not brilliant at drawing (as is apparent), I think that the contrasting storyboards are effective in showing our thought processes and also give an overview of our original ideas.
