Week 10 - Storyboard and Casting

This week I completed the storyboards for my opening sequence which can be seen below.
My original storyboard was longer but I decided to shorten it as the opening sequence is only two minutes long and my original idea would have been much longer.
I also cut down the dialogue a lot to only one line at the end which will be Ruby's voiceover "Isnt it ironic, the day I died, my life began." This is the hook that will make the audience want to watch the rest of my film.




































As you can see from the storyboard the arrows show the direction of movement and where the shot description is "shakey cam" it shows the narrative switch to the creature. The opening sequence shows a lot of movement which will also help build tension with the combination of music and camera shots as the audience will be curious as to what will happen.

The cast members I have chosen are

Ruby - Jessi Hill
Alex - Jamie Clack

I chose these actors as Jessi is currently studying drama at college and Jamie has previously studied it, therefore it seemed the logical choice.

  1. Where will you shoot this? What time of day? What kit will you need?
