I was so excited for media because I have a real passion for creating videos and trailers. When I first found out how to make trailers, I did not stop! So this task on actually creating my own film opening, that is just mine and I have made everything up, really appealed to me. The story board just made it feel so real! After creating my story board I am really amazed the work and detail directors go through in making movies. I only created a 2 minute storyboard, some movies last 2 hours.
Harry Potter...
Over the half term I watched all of the Harry Potter films. I understand that this type of genre has nothing to do with the genre I am producing, however, I wanted to see the different types of shots that were compelled into this amazing series. After watching them all, I watched the behind the scene videos on Sky and this showed me the different lengths that directors go to. It amazes me how they find their inspiration and vision. So venturing on to my own visions and inspirations from all the different romantic movies I have watched, I started to story board.
How I began...
I did find it hard to sit at my desk and actually get all the floating ideas in my head on paper, but it got easier. I found it easiest just to close my eyes, imagine being in the scene and how you would act if such horrible news was presented to you. I underestimated the amount of shots I would need. I did not think film would take as long as it is looking like it will. However having all my ideas on paper is so so helpful as know I have a set idea of what it is going to look like.
Video...
I have made a video of what my story board. I have made it on iMovie. I was really impressed with myself as I cropped the music to make the background music fit the length of the video. I did this but cutting the rapping and on verse from the song. I believe it works really well, and I don't think it can be spotted where the edits are. I have also added a part from the middle of the song to the end as I though that it worked well.
Here is my story board!!
