Storyboard Update - Narrative

 

1

Shot Type: Mid Shot

Camera Movement: Still

Notes: Camera shows the main narrative character sat at a table looking through old photos in a photo-album with an alcoholic beverage next to him. The alcoholic beverage is likely to be a beer bottle.

2

Shot Type: Over the Shoulder shot

Camera Movement: Still with Panning

Notes: Camera transitions into an over the shoulder shot, this allows the camera to get a close-up of the stills.

3

Shot Type: Extreme Close-up

Camera Movement: Still with  a slight panning movement.

Notes: Camera moves to an extreme close up of the stills from the photo-album, this then transitions into live action.

4

Shot Type: Mid-shot

Camera Movement: Still

Notes: A simple shot which is there to establish the couple are in love. Possibly going to be shown around the lyric "Standing on your mamma's porch. . ."

5

Shot Type: Close-up

Camera Movement: Still

Notes: Close-up shot of the couple hand holding, this links with the lyric "when you held my hand". There will be a mid-shot of the couple walking together and then a close-up when they go to grab each others hand, this will then go back to a mid-shot of them walking towards the camera.

6

Shot Type: Mid-shot

Camera Movement: Still

Notes: Another shot the couple on the hill. It's a shot that is two shots before the love interest breaks up with the main narrative character.

7

Shot Type: Close-up

Camera Movement: Still

Notes: Close-up of the love interest saying "it's over" to the main narrative character. We may not use this shot, it will depend how effective it looks and how well you can tell what she's actually saying.

8

Shot Type: Close-up / Mid-shot

Camera Movement: Still

Notes: The couple are holding hands on the hill, and then the love interest walks away when she breaks up with the main narrative character. The main narrative character goes to grab her but she is faded out of shot. This will be shot twice, once with the couple in shot and then again re-acted by the main narrative character on his own. This will help when it comes to editing and fading the love interest out.

 After completing one storyboard we then decided to plan some other ideas which we could possibly use for the narrative.

1

Shot of the main narrative character sat on the hill waiting for the love interest to arrive. The love interest then arrives and they walk together to hold each others hand. Same setting as where the love interest breaks up with the main narrative character.

2

Shot of the house which the love interest lives in. It will be a long-shot and will include the whole house in the shot, this means that we won't get any unwanted reflections from the windows. The main narrative character is seen walking past the house and he glances up at the window which she's sat in.

Here is our planning for the transition which we are going to use for the photo-album scene. We were planning how we are going to pan around the character to then into the still which then goes into action. We want it to look as though it goes straight into the action after establishing the photo with no stutter between the transition.
