Storyboard for Maisy and Jim

Last Friday we were instructed to create a storyboard for a scene involving 2 characters. Edem, Mandy and I went to the location and took pictures of each shot we wanted to get.

It was a lot harder than I thought and certainly gave me more respect for film makers and directors as they are so many issues to consider when getting a shot. The position of the camera has to reflect who is the main person in the scene and the 180 degree rule is also a big factor to keep the shots consistent.

You also have to consider objects in the background of the shot especially windows. Also for the first time we were having to choreograph characters movement to give us a better idea of shots. This is difficult becase there has to be a reason behind each movement a character makes to add something to the story.

Below is a quick time video we made of our shots.
