Storyboard

We made a storyboard to help us with our film. We could then have an idea of how it would look and it would also helop us when we were filming incase we forgot the shot, it saved a lot of time. We then took pictures of each shot and made it into a video with a voice over. This is the storyboard we created.




We chose most of the house scene so that it was slow and so that the characters life seemed ordinary but with a twist that would keep the audience guessing. Then we moved to the wood scene and we tried to use more fast paced shots so that it made a contrast between the house and the woods. When the killer is behind the tree, we put the shots cutting closer and closer to the killer, this is to build some suspense and make the killer look even scarier because he is up close and it makes it uncomfortable for the audience. The last shot of the killer coming across the camera was planned so that it kept the audience guessing what has happened and because it blacked out the screen then it would scare them a bit.

Because we made a script it helped the actors out and it also helped Alex and I out when we were making it. The actors we had knew exactly what they were doing when they turned up to do the shoot and Alex and I knew what was going on and we kept close to the script so that our film went as we planned it and we didnt have any complications.
