Narrative

The previous week we had a two day Narrative session. The first day was spent storyboarding our 30 second piece of action based in the college. The three storyboarding techniques are 'long shot', 'close-up' and 'extreme angles'. We then combined the three storyboards to create a final sequence to shoot the next day. 

This is my storyboard for the long shots, which demonstrate in the film a sense of distance and direction.


Come the next day however, the key bearer to the balcony (a crucial scene!) was away, so the action was cut shorter than anticipated, but we worked with it. 

After we shot the film we had to give over the film and the storyboards and allow the assigned group to cut it all in Final Cut HD. We were assigned a really good group, who had clear storyboards and well thought out action and shots and had fun editing it all together.

This is the group we edited, our film is on a memory stick hopefully to be seen again...!
