Storyboards

From this storyboard you can see that we had many ideas about the scenery of our shots and where we wanted to shoot the background of our shots. We thought that with the style of our video that woodland and forest type environments would be most effective and so we decided to design some shots as you can see below.

As you can see from the first storyboard we had quite a few ideas about what to include in our film. Firstly as you can see we wanted to include a Tarantula at some point but we were unsure on where to bring in this idea. In the end we decided to project a picture of the Tarantula on a screen behind the band.

From this storyboard it was mainly looking at just other ideas we had and drawing them out. We had sorted the other storyboards into sections such as chorus and opening sequences. However this storyboard was mainly just simple ideas we had, such as referencing the Tarantula on a persons hand and different style shots we could use.

This storyboard below was about the narrative in our story and how we would show this through shots in our video. The shot of the spray can wasnt actually included in our video, however, we did include the needle and the shot of the arm that was used with the needle. This helped to project our narrative as it was along the idea of drug abuse and a party style genre.

This storyboard was about our original idea to have a rave scene in our video, mimicking a club/party. However we decided not to include this and instead used a band scene as we thought it would be more effective to see the band as its what the audience would want to see and it stays with the conventions of music videos.

This storyboard was an addition to the previous one, as it carries on the rave scene.

This however is the storyboard for the band scene. This is what we decided to use instead of the rave scene and I think in the end turned out more effective. As you can see below, we included lots of close ups of the lead singer, which again is part of the conventions of music videos, and we used many dynamic shots of the other band members through the Fig Rig.

This storyboard was a continuation of the band scene. As you can see we have used many shots of the band and other members.

Again this was still the band scenes, however we decided to take some more shots of the band including the instruments they used.

These are the storyboards that me and my group created on paper. We have been able to put the storyboards on Blogger by drawing them on paper, then scanning them on a computer and uploading them to blogger. The storyboards took about a week and we all put an effort into making them. I worked on them by writing the shot numbers on each of the shots and helped putting them in order. Also I helped write some of the shot type, and the timing of the shots.
