In order to prepare for our shoot we made a storyboard so as we could see all our shots. We colour coded each type of shot with a different colour post it note so that it would be obvious by colour balance whether we had too many of one type of shot.
Key:
- Green - LS
- Orange - CU
- Pink - MS
- Blue - Title
This helped us to make sure we could all were on the same level in terms of what would happen in our sequence and it gave us a clear minimum as to what to shoot. Of course when we were shooting we knew that we had to shoot more than just the shots on the storyboard just in case something didn't work as well as we had hoped but having the storyboard as a reference point helped to make sure we filmed something that could become coherent in post production.
