This picture shows evidence of our storyboarding in preparation for filming. We completed this together, myself scribing and Frank illustrating, after I had written up the Narrative Structure.
Having considered the film structure, as well as our Crime Thriller questionnaire responses, which I will be writing up to my blog tommorow, myself and Frank constructed an opening scene which we both believe satisfies the needs of a film opening from this genre, and which we can both visualise in our own heads.
Deciding on shots and shot distances could have potentially caused conflict, what with two of us having our own ideas, however I personally think that we managed to construct a better opening scene than either of us could of on our own because there were numerous points at which we were able to build on each other's ideas. For example, I suggested the shot zooming into Gary's eye. Frank, having thought about this suggestion, came up with the idea that we could actually zoom right in through the eye, as if we were going into Gary's brain to see the image of what has caught his eye.
These boards are essential to our success in the making of this film opening and so it was of paramount importance that we came up with a decent initial structure. These boards will mean we can get straight on with filming, knowing exactly what we are shooting and why we are shooting it.
