Storyboard Blog

In put storyboard we drew each shot we planned on filming. The first page of our storyboard introduces the main character, Ashley, her mother, Megan, who is Ashley’s best friend, and the current news coverage about a murderer. 

The second page of our storyboard shows Ashley introducing Noah to Megan and to the audience for the first time. Megan leaves Ashley’s house and the remaining scenes build up suspense as Ashley gets ready to go to sleep while texting Noah. Finally Ashley is shown waking up and texting Noah. 

The third Page of our storyboard shows Ashley getting ready to go out with Noah, as she puts on makeup and blow dries her hair. The next scene shows Ashley sneaking out at night and grabbing her bike. Lastly she brings biking down her street. 

The fourth page of our storyboard shows Ashley arriving in mysterious looking woods. She looks around for Noah but is unable to find him at first. Diegetic sound of something stirring in the woods frightens Ashley. Ashley calls Noah’s name and he finally appears as a dark figure. 

The fifth page shows Noah pulling out a knife, before his eighth murder. Then, the audience sees a blood spreading across the floor. Finally, Noah receives a text from a person labeled “victim nine”

Choosing our Pitch

Image
Pitch 1: A little girl's imagination gets out of hand one afternoon. Pitch 2: A girl is doing homework when suddenly she finds a mysterious note left in her book for her. Pitch 3: A young mom is driving to pick up her son from school, when out of the blue and friend from her past comes her way. Pitch one is an ideal one for our group, as it can involve girl characters, and our group has four girls. This leaves us options for us to have someone to film, which is good so we don't have to go out of our way to find another cameraman. This, along with the fact that the wording allows for wiggle room, is a pro to pitch 1. However, we would have to take extra steps to find a little girl to play one of the parts, which adds a bit of a challenge, but I think our group is up for that. Pitch 2 is also a reasonable pitch for our group, because we can have one of us acting and the rest of us tackling other responsibilities. However, we are not sure how much we can do with the concept, so...

Movie Conventions Research: Bird Box

Image
  Various camera angles, sounds, editing forms, and mis-en-scene were used in this film. For starters, numerous scenes were shot at a medium close-up viewpoint with dark lighting as the mis-en-scene. Dim lighting in the forest setting and  Ambient lighting are two examples of different types of illumination. To achieve a chilling effect, many props were added, including a blindfold and a rowboat down a strong river. The majority of the film was shot with diegetic sound, however there were several instances where there was no sound to create an eerie and mysterious atmosphere within the movie.  Different types of lighting, such as under lighting, were heavily used to generate an ominous impact on viewers. The actors in this film are dressed in costumes that are meant to look worn out and dirty to the audience. The majority of the aspects stated had a positive impact on the movie since they added tension and suspense, which is what this genre is all about. Low angle and eye...

More Filming!

Image
 When Connor arrived, we were ecstatic. This meant we could finish filming all of the scenes now. After me and Katie filmed the scenes in her house, we needed to film the rest of them. We began filming the next scene, which was me riding a bike through a neighborhood. I hopped on the bike and rode it, while Katie and Connor followed me filming as a tracking shot. Thankfully I knew how to ride a bike, so it was fairly easy to film. There was two other locations we needed to film at. One at a playground, and another in the forest at Hugh Taylor Birch State park. The three of us walked to a local playground and started filming the scene with Katie and I. We sat on the swings, rehearsing our lines quickly so we could film with ease. I took multiple shots, so we could pick the best one out of the couple. The props we used in that scene was our phones. Next, we had to film in the forest. Katie's neighbors gave us a key to enter the park. That was very convenient for us. We needed to film...
