Our Storyboard


This is the storyboard me and my group created and shot. It outlines the plot of our short opening sequence and of course the shots we opted to use and what we thought were appropriate.
First frame is a long shot of pupils walking through the corridors on a typical school/college day, and to give an idea of the setting that its in a school or college.
Second shot shows Joe saying "heyy" to Amy as he approaches her in the corridor, here we use a medium close up (MCU).
Third shot its Amy who is approaching Joe with an over the shoulder shot (over Joes shoulder) and also saying "hi" to him. On these shots we stay on the same side of joe and Amy as we follow the 180 degree rule so as to not confuse the audience of wher our actors are coming from in terms of where they're standing.
Fourth frame after Joe and Amy are saying hello to eachother and Joe asks Amy how has Amy been over the holidays. using a simple over the shoulder Close-up (CU).
Shot five we opted to use anotherCU of Amy over joes shoulder and telling him that she's been thinking of joe over the holidays.
Frame six is MCU off Joe clearly shocked of her saying she been thinking of him, and he quickly asks her how her boyfriend is.
Frame seven is another MCU of Amy basically saying that things between her and her boyfriend isn't so good and she seems to be rather upset about it too.
Eighth Frame, Joe attempts to comfort Amy by telling her that if she ever wanted to talk he is there and it leads on to the ninth frame where continuity played an important part as an establishing shot as her hands her his number on a bit of paper
Tenth Frame, Amy also quite fond of Joe thanks him after taking his number
And the Penultimate shot we see them saying goodbye to each other as they go their separate ways.
The final twelth shot we use a tracking shot following Joe down the hall as he approaches Amy's boyfriend and bullies Joe by tripping him up and he falls to the ground with amy oblivious to what just happened. Then it ends
