Example of a storyboard

Nineteen Minutes- Storyboard;

We created a storyboard to visually show what our plan were for our film opening. We had planned to do a tracking but we weren't sure if that would work so we decided to make two storyboards just in case. The main feature of out story board is close up shots of props we used to give the audience an idea of what the character is like without giving away too much so that we still kept the sense of enigma. We also included some close up shots of what Peter was writing in his letter so that the audience knew what it was about but again we didn't want to give too much away so we just included the most important parts such as 'By the time you read this, I hope to me dead.'
