- shows the 'narrative flow'
- visualised by a series of drawings which show the characters, setting, location and props in each shot
- some basic language
What is a story board?
- enables director to see what they want to see on the actual camera shots
- easy to see if directors ideas are going to work on screen so helps devise the sequence of the scenes
- used as a basis of discussion between film director and photographer to decide how the shots need to be acted, lit and shot
- normally used for sequences involving a lot of action or movement
What do story boards look like?
- Here is an example of a story board from a music video made:
When are story boards used?
- Pre-production --> rough ideas, visualising the shots that are going to take place and which ones will work
- Production --> copies are given to all the crew so everyone knows the base line to work with
- Post-production --> act as a visual reminder of what has been shot and the order can be edited
For our storyboard, Honor is going to draw it as she does art and is probably the best artist out of all of us. We will have to take all of this research into consideration when using the story board so that we can use it in the most effective way it can work. As a group we will work on the storyboard and decide rough ideas so we can start drafting them until we come up with the main one in which we can use pre-production, during production and post-production.
Here are the storyboards we have been given which we can use to begin drafting our ideas:
