The process of storyboarding

A storyboard is an account showing the series of individual shots that come together to make up the film sequence. There is an image of what each shot will roughly look like, accompanied by text which explains concisely what is going on in the mise en scene each time. The text should also tell us what sort of sound and light is used and the editing involved.

In order to develop our storyboards, we came together as a group to make a list of the shot types we are going to use in our sequence as well as the editing transition from one shot to another.
We were then given storyboard templates as seperate documents which we typed the details into before printing off so we could draw in the pictures of each shot.

When doing my section of the storyboard sequence, I sometimes found it difficult filling in the details of the location as we are still not completely sure as to where exactly our sequence is going to be filmed.
