+StoryboardingEach scene should use a variety of shots to convey the action, neverjust one shot, consider what angles and composition you would need

to make the action exciting for the viewer.

+DO NOTS

Storyboarding Each scene should use a variety

of shots to convey the action, should not be done in one shot.

Each storyboard should be twenty shots and last 2 minutes.

I would suggest that you do no more than three scenes as you can then focus on camera shots.

There should never be the same shot next to each other as this is a jump shot and is bad jars the audience.

Reminder. The easiest way to construct a scene to begin with is use:W/S – Establish the scene.M/S – establish the actors.

+Eyeline / Headspace

Which images show good headroom and which do not, identify why?

+Angles / Position

Low angle – makes actors big and imposing in the frame.

High angle – makes the actor seem small and dominated in the frame.

+Task In groups look over

your storyboard and with assistance develop the storyboard into a sequence that you can film using a prod script, as below.

Once this is completed you can continue filming / editing, but it must be checked by me first.
