Story Board
This is our first ever story board we made. I drew all the scenes we thought will be in our film opening. However as time went we had to change some of the following scenes or not include them in our opening due to how they did not blend with the rest of the scenes or were not a good idea for ur plot. It starts off with the locations of both female and male character. For the female i drew a park with flowers and trees and that was actually included in the film opening, It is in fact the first opening scene. In addition, even the male character's area was included right after the girl's locations. Because we want a back and forth kind of parallel edit we decided to have as many cuts as possible and get the girl's scenes for some seconds, quickly followed by the boy's scene. This was actually a great idea as it clearly showed the contrast between the two characters, which was the intial aim. We decided to not film certain scenes because they were not necessary or did not go with story really for example the scene where the girl is checking her phone and she is on instagram. Instead,we added a scene wherethe male characteris checking his Iphoneand calling someone by first dialling theirnumber. Also, another scene that was actually initially filmed but not recorded was the steady shot of the girl's shoe collection. The main reason we did not include that scene is because we thought it took too muh time and space whithin the opening because it has to be 2 minutes long and we exceeded that by 30 seconds, therefore had to cut some scenes. We have not even edted the titles in yet, that will take up more space therefore it was definiteley a good idea to remove some scenes.Other than that all the other scenes are edited in our video somehow, including the male character in th block smoking. We also added new scenes that were not in this story board such as close up of the boy's trainers and bag. We did this because we initially did not have enough footage of the male character. We had to film extra additional scenes to even out the amount of scenes for each of the characters.
