XxFilmimg a Story BoardxX

This was our first experience of creating a real film story board. Matt took us through setting it up itup step by step. And then we were on our own.
I was the director as well as camera girl, and found it really benefical to get a clear idea of how camera angles as well as focus works. We also used apature to contribute light as it was a very cloudy day and more light was needed. The rule of 180 degrees, was difficult to stick to as at times we broke this rule by crossing over. However when looking back we saw this to be the case as corrected ourselves.

There were varies parts to the task were the team had many strenghts such as every one contributed in some way, and we had a good communication business. We also worked quickly and efficiently to complete the task, as my group finished in the designated time period. We overall, made a good group and for a beginning story board I feel we did well.

however there were some disadvatages during the task Such as there were at times parts when, disagreements did arise about angles as well as positioning. However these were overcam. In addition as we were only beginners to the media subject and this was our first piece of real story board making on film. We did not know the 180 degree rule well, and on several occasions this was crossed. However our mistakes were shown to us and taken on baord as constructive critisisem. This has not occuredc since.





Overall I felt the team worked really well, we completed the task in timed conditions and produced a really good western film.

We had a western story board to follow such as:
