Storyboard assignment brief 1 unit 18

Film



The images show the rough designs of the X-Wings, Chewbacca, and Han Solo. It clearly shows that the film is sci-fi as in 'board  260' as you can see Space in the background.


In board 368 of Han and Chewbacca it is a 'medium close-up'. This board effectively shows the background of the ship, the design of the characters, and the expression of the characters. Then also in board 260 the X-Wing shows movement effectively as there is a 'blur' showing speed and that it's moving fast.



This scene shows the sound made when Spiderman punches Doctor Octopus should be a 'bam' sound, showing that Spiderman is fighting hard. It could also be a design choice based on the fact that Spiderman was originally a comic. Sound could also be shown in board 260 of Star Wars since it says 'overheard' it could be making a fly past sound like a 'zoom' or something similar.



This scene from Pyscho shows how transitions and edits should look in final production very well. It shows that it should be fast pace and cut really quick. It's clear they want to use lots of camera angles and cuts despite it only being a short scene.



These boards show directions and help visualize very well. Forest Gump's board is incredibly detailed  showing what costume, background, and face expressions look like very well. Then Spiderman has an arrow showing his movement, 'lines of motion', and also 'wham' showing he is attacking. Then Star Wars describes movement for example 'Luke's X-Wing going overhead'.




The layout, style and format is very important to make sure you know the order for your film.The Green Hornet does this very well. They have the scene number, page number, and also board number. This helps make sure there are no mistakes in order, and also saves time trying to correctly piece together in post production.

Continuity is used throughout all storyboards. For example costumes (Spiderman), vehicle designs (Star Wars), and art style. It would be strange if they changed the way something looked throughout the storyboard.

Television

This story board effectively uses imagery to show how chaotic the scene is. The background has people panicking to run away, smoke, and fire. It also shows Dany's face expression being very intense.

In board 84d there is an arrow showing the movement of Dany getting onto the Dragon. The reason there is a arrow instead of showing her getting on frame by frame is because it saves time redrawing. Between 84d and scene 85 it goes from long shot to a close-up shot. This is done to effectively show Dany's expression in this scene. Also in board 65 it says 'Dany's pov' this shows that Dany is clearly the most important character in this scene and her pov is the most important. The high use of different shots, transitions, and pans will show off the detail in the scene.

The only use of sound in the boards is Dany saying 'fly' in Valerian. However, you can image there being lots of sound from the fact there are people running away. You can image lots of screaming and thuds from the Dragon landing and moving.

The editing seems to be pretty fast pace. Which is effective for an action sequence.

The style and layout of the storyboard is very clear and easy to understand. It has page number, board number, and also uses 1a, 1b, 1c system to show of a single board in more detail.

 Videogames/animation Related image
There are very few camera angles/shots used in this scene. However, the first few shots are close-up showing the characters expression very clearly. The angles are also eye level too. The rest of the scene there camera is locked in place watching the dinosaur run about and getting scared.

There are use of sound in these scenes. Like 'kilk!' when the dinosaur hit the grave. There also appears to be lines of sound coming out of his mouth, showing that he is screaming/yelping.

The storyboard shows whats going on in the scene very clearly. The dinosaur is clumsy and scared about his surroundings.

The layout is pretty basic but it's easy to understand its order. It just goes from left to right.

Preparation for filming

-
Costume For costumes I wanted to show that the main character George was a normal working man who lived an innocent life before getting blackmailed. So to do this I used a plain white shirt with a black tie to show he is a worker. I also needed a hoodie for stalker character however the person playing him didn't have any and we could get any that would fit him. So instead we used one of his jackets with a large collar and used that to 'hide' his face. Location For locations I needed a bathroom for filming the dressing scene. However, my own bathroom is to small for filming in so I used my friends Luke's bathroom which was quite large and perfect for filming in. We also needed a path that we could use that wouldn't have people walk passed them so we used our college campus and used a none populated area. Then for the scene shot in the bar we very luckily had a friend with a bar in his house and used that for the filming. The scene where the blackmail is d...

Storyboard final drafts

This is my final draft for my music video. It opens up with the camera zooming in on the characters face. Then as it zooms it the music starts. The music video follows the same story as my film. Similar to the music video for 'All Star' by Smash Mouth which follows the story of the film Mystery Men. It will have the musicians in the background of the film. However, they wont be acknowledged and the character is the music video will proceed like they don't even exist. There will be scenes like in the 7th box in which it just cuts to the band playing. I improved it from my first draft by changing it from a lyric music video to featuring the band singing in the shots. I also added close-ups and zooms which weren't in my draft at all. This is my final draft for my video-game. It will be a 2-D side scrolling game similar to Mario and Street Fighter. You will have a limited amount of lives and upon death you lose a single life. If your hit 0 lives your game restarts....
