There will be a picture of the original scribble which I call a storyboard, when I get round to taking the photo, but for now this will have to do. (Italics = added in later)
Opening titles, probably over a series of old photos, to tie in with the fact that I'm looking at photos at the beginning of the scene)
Frame 1
Looking at old photos, finds a photo of younger me with an item (I’d have to make sure I still have the item, it’ll be needed later on. If not, I’ll have a go at getting creative with Photoshop)
Frame 2
Insert of close up of photo.
Frame 3
Cuts to low angle shot of me looking at photo.
Frame 4
MONTAGE!!!! Looking for item in photo around the house.
Frame 5
Close up of a random look of confusion, then looking (camera pans) to a laptop.
Frame 6
Cut to printer, printing the posters.
Frame 7
Series of quick clips of me putting posters on walls, lampposts etc, ending with a shot of me in front of a lamppost, then walking away, revealing a poster on the lamppost.
Frame 8
Long shot of me trying to hand out posters (could be filmed on highstreet, using charity shop on there, if they'll let me anyway), ending with a close up of me looking for someone else to give a poster to, when...
Frame 9
The camera cuts to a second hand shop (Charity shop down highstreet), then to a close up of the item in the window.
Frame 10
The camera returns to the shot of me, I walk out of shot and the camera cuts to a wide shot of the shop and me walking through the door.
Frame 11
There is then a close up of a shop assistant taking the item out of the window.
Frame 12
Shows poster on floor/on lamppost, before wind blows it away.
There will be a picture of the original scribble which I call a storyboard, when I get round to taking the photo.
End Credits, either scrolling on a black screen or in the same style as the opening credits, just with new photos of the item)
I like this idea. It feels kind of sad, which I like. Music is going to be key with this, I think.
ReplyDeleteA visual storyboard, as you rightly say, is going to be v helpful to you, but it's good that you're identifying shot types and transitions already. Don't forget to think about movement, composition and mise-en-scene as well!
