Storyboard-The making of them





This is a template of the storyboards that was used to create the real storyboards.
The box is where the picture would be drawn and this would show a brief outline of what the shot will look like.
The lines are there so we can write up the explanation of the shot and also the use of mise-en-scene used in the shot.
Also, the little square is for the shot number.


Once the storyboard has been put together, it is more than likely that the storyboard will fit exact to the film we produce.

Final Plot

As I joined this group later on throughout the project, this is the final plot idea they have decided to gone with.

They agreed to initially go with Idea A. However, when they realised to do this, it was far to complex and complicated therefore they tweeked the main idea and decided to change the initial idea.

This is how the film will be overall: There is a girl and boy that used to be a couple, the boy cheated on the girl and now has a new girlfriend. The 'ex' girlfriend therefore went and stalked her ex boyfriend with his new girlfriend, taking pictures etc of them and therefore from this made a collage of them and therefore from this, plans to plot to go out and kill them.

Ideas.

Once I had changed to a different group, they had already came up with 3 rough ideas on what they were going to do. They are ranked in the order of the favourite and the one which we are probably going to attempt, idea A being the best. However these ideas are not set in stone and we will probably develop, change or elaborate on them when drawing up story boards and even in film production.  I shall post the ideas as separate blogs therefore you have a clearer view on each idea.

Group Change

Throughout my AS Meida Coursework, I have now changed groups and joined someone elses group.
They emerged an idea before I joined and the idea is:

Visual Style:
Happy Times, in Colour. Bad Times, in Black and White and eerie.

Characters:
Myra, physcho killer. (Melissa Little)
Lucy, lady cheat,seductive. (Laura Whittaker)
Tony, Cheating  boyfriend. (Joey Moore)


Location:
Nicole's House + (The Delph Fields)- Nightime
Towneley Park, Daytime.

From this idea, they have already filmed all the footage needed. Also, they have already started to edit the footaged gathered, therefore I will have missed out on some valuable information and lose certain pieces of information to add to my blog.
