Storyboard is done!

Today in class, my partner and I were able to finish our storyboard for our opening. This is a very important step in planning because it will help make filming so much easier. Going into the filming day, we will already know what shots we need to make our story so we will not be stressed about what to film. We might need to add more shots if some don't flow as nicely as we want, or we might have to even cut down some of our shots if the opening turns out to be too long. The important thing to remember is that we need to be flexile during this process because we will most likely run into problems that we need to solve.

Another positive thing about storyboarding is that we can learn and grow the story more. Before, we just had ideas in our head and some bullet points written down. Storyboarding forced us to actually visualize how we want to scene to look in order to draw our pictures and we learned more about how we want to develop the personality of the characters. It also gave us an opportunity to speak to each other about our different ideas that we would like to be implemented into the scene. Creating the storyboard made me realize how excited I am to start filming and seeing it all come together!!
