Task 6: Storyboards

How to storyboard a film sequence:-

-          Purpose photographs shots of film with key information

-          Storyboard allows directors to visualize films and allow camera person to understand how films are shot

-          Allows you to change elements if they don’t work visually before expensive filming process.

Frames should contain:-

-          Shot number – intended sequence can be followed

-          Framing – close ups, medium shot, long shot

-          Drawings – visualisation of what is happening

-          Action – brief description

-          Dialogue – single lines of dialogue

-          Sound effects – specific sounds, digetic, non digetic?

Each frame must have shot description such as the following abbreviations:-

-          H/A = high angle

-          L/A= low angle

-          P.O.V = point of view

-          2 Shot = two people in a shot

-          OTS = over the shoulder

-          Track/dolly = move camera on wheeled platform

-          Crab = sideways move

-          Pull focus = change what is in focus
