Storyboard process- working storyboard
















Working Storyboard
This is the storyboard for our idea of the opening sequence of our idea 'Elizabeth's Diary'.
A story board is written after there is a concept for a film and script. The story board shows the action in a simple format; to show the location, action, movement, sound, lighting, edit transition, timing and a drawing of the action.

When we finalised our idea, we listed the shots in order in the sequence. We then opened up a storyboard template from the shared server. We decided that we would split the task of the storyboard by each of doing a page of two pages of the storyboard each. In order to complete the storyboard we opened it on a word document. We then implemented the information from the shot list onto the storyboard. We estimated the time for each shot and then added them together to see if they fitted the time limit. We then printed the storyboard off and checked for any mistakes. Then T-k did the drawings for the storyboard as she is the most artistic person in our group. We used the information of our storyboard shot and the overall concept of the film, to do the drawings. Davina then inked the storyboard above T-k's pencil drawings. I then looked over the storyboards the finalise them and Ross scanned them into the computer.
We decided that we were not going to include the exterior scenes of the barn and start inside the studio. This is because we decided that we were not going to set it in a barn as it might not look very effective. Also, it may be random that she is hanging herself in a barn as it has no relevance to the film and it may distract from the diary element.
