Shot Ideas

In order to put together a successful storyboard, we tested out some of the rough shot ideas that we had in our heads. This year it was a lot harder to know what shots we wanted and needed to do as our trailer will be not necessarily in chronological order like one of our influences that we looked at, 'SPIKE ISLAND'. We filmed some of them and then others we have just photographed due to the still nature of the shot. 

This is just a simple walking shot that we wanted to include to introduce the character or to display titles or just to put to a voiceover audio.

This is another simple walking shot. However, we like this one better this one better than the previous one as it allows the audience to concentrate more on the character as oppose to the surroundings. We intend to use this shot in our 2nd draft of our storyboard. 

This shot is different from the others as we used a downward angled pan. We felt this shot is possibly more interesting than the others as it changes the dynamic of the shot. We will be using this shot in out second draft of our storyboard.

The shot testing below was one of the most important as it could go either way. We used some willing volunteers to test it out.
