Storyboard

Here is my original storyboard I created before we filmed our opening sequence.

As you can see it is different from the finished product, some of the shots are different to the what we filmed, and the order has slightly changed.

The Day Coombe Got Robbed

Hello fellow blogger brethren,

12C6 and the rest of Coombe's media students received the unfortunate news of finding out that someone committed the felony of robbery in school over the weekend and stole our finished opening sequence with it. They stole all of the macs and all of the cameras but left our headphones. Unfortunately we don't have any computers to plug them in to. This has left us all shocked and frustrated at the thought of having to re edit our whole opening sequence all over again but thankfully we found that our title sequence was saved on to the public school drive so we don't have to re edit that again. Hopefully my next blog post will show the progress we have made on re editing, in the mean time you can check out the behind the scenes footage we took.

Initial Planning: Shooting Schedule

In order to structure our filming day to make it most time efficient, we planned the order which we would take our shots. During our filming day we generally stuck to this, however after we adapted some scenes, and the end of the opening sequence had an alternative ending, the order some shots were taken in changed. During the day we filmed in the house first, and then in the car (due to 1) Nikolai being a little late and 2) It was quite cold outside!), which meant time was not being consumed unnecessarily. I have included the original shooting schedule here:

Initial Planning: Script and Synopsis

During the initial planning of our opening sequence it was recommended that we included minimal speaking during it. As there were only two characters, we only planned for there to be one sentence of dialogue which occurred at the end. However, as the opening sequence changed, on the day we decided there to be no speaking at all. Here I have included both photos of our planned script, and the synopsis.
