As part of this course we made short films that had a problem and a solution (video can be watched below). In order to make these short films a lot of planning was necessary. In our planning we used the techniques of story boarding and scripting.
Story boarding was developed by Walt Disney in 1928. This was done to achieve full animation by using an enormous number of drawings. For the purpose of our short films a story board was used to create a series of drawings of the proposed film. It is the plan of the end product.
Scripting the way in which the thoughts and ideas of the author are transmitted to the audience. This is done by recording not only the dialogue but everything that is seen/heard in the film. A good script looks at the following points: Mood, expression, movement, special effects, sound track instructions, Lighting, camera angles, Type of shot, Background sound and setting, on screen graphics and titles. The more detail included the more realistic it will be. In our script we made sure we added all the correct camera angles and shots as well as what the person is saying and their expressions.
