Storyboarding

In the last few lessons we have began to storyboard. This process consists of planning out each step of the sequence, this includes; the shot number, location, action, shot/movement, sound, lighting and edit transition. It also leaves a space for us to draw a small image of what is happening, this will give us an indication of time. After completing an initial draft, it came to our realisation that there were many fundamental parts in which we had missed.  This was helpful to us because it allowed us to creat a complete storyboard with no gaps. The next step for us was estimating the time each shot would take, this was important because the recommended length was between 2-2:30. Storybarding also helps you to select the pace of the action. This is because the climax of the sequence needs to be at the correct point, this needs editing.
