Storyboarding our thriller has developed it in many ways. It has advanced the concept of our thriller into a visual representation of what each shot will look like, coupled with and enhanced by annotations which display our intentions of what will accompany what we see in each shot. For example, we have written the planned duration that some shots will last for so it is easier when it comes to editing. However, we have not noted this for every shot as those which contain dialogue are much more difficult to assign a length to due to the uncertain amount of time it will take to say particular lines. The annotations also include the camera angles we have established would suit each shot to help us understand the motion of the scene. The moment at which the scene cross-cuts between Sean and Sebastian further assists with this, which is demonstrated in the storyboard as the shots are matched with the script and so it shows the point in the script when the shot is focused on each character. Additionally, we have explained the specific actions in each shot so we know what we aim to film in them, and we have commented on what sound we intend to hear in a few shots so that if the sound doesn’t occur when filming, we know what sound to add in during the editing process.
Making the storyboard has helped us convey the thriller genre as it has prepared us with information that we can use when filming so that we can get all the shots we want and allow us to communicate our idea properly. By completing the storyboard, it has also allowed us to decide that we will show the name of our thriller at the end of our opening sequence to intensify the uncertainty when the tension is at its highest.
After storyboarding, we are going to film a run-through of our thriller using our storyboard. We will try to follow our storyboard when filming, but it may change slightly while editing if the shots don’t fit well together or if something doesn’t work well.
