In order to help us finalise our storyline for our film opening, I sketched out a simple storyboard in order to determine the order and events which occur in each separate frame. The storyboard was completed with tour ideas in mind, which we have tried our best to include in our final film opening, however we have had to remove aspects which don't work, and have added extra framed to enhance the narrative and cinematography aspects.
Preliminary Video The video below is our prelim video for our AS media coursework. The requirements for the video were:
Door opening (match on action)
Walking across a room
Over the shoulder shot
A conversation between two people with both of their faces shown
We opened the video with a mach on action medium shot of the interviewee (Jess) pushing a double door open in one shot and in the shot following shot she is seen going through the doors.
The next shot is a pan of Jess walking across the room, so already we have two of the requirements ticked off the list.
Just as the interviewee is about to walk through the door, the shot cuts to an over the shoulder shot following her as she walks outside.
As she walks outside we see the interviewer (Maria) and what follows is a series of medium shots and over the shoulder shots as she interviews the interviewee. Thus checking off the final of the objectives for the video.
This gave us the chance to practice our camera framing skills and editing skills on final cut pro.
