Storyboarding

Today ill be explaining what storyboarding is and why it is important in a film. This is going to be short because we aren't going to be very long because storyboarding is very simple and much easier since your not doing too much.  

What is storyboarding? 

Storyboarding is a graphic organizer that consists of illustration or graphic images in a certain sequence for a pre-visual motion picture animation of your film. Typically, this means that you have a visual of what each shot is going to be doing. The storyboard description gives further on what the picture is trying to show. For example, if your going to draw something that supposed to show a whip pan, you should make the description: "Camera goes into a whip pan....". This will help you better understand because you cant just rely on your mind remembering or a picture or drawing showing. A storyboard should take you about  2-3 days to make if have your script.

why is storyboarding important?

Storyboarding is important for two reasons. First reason, storyboarding helps you see the visuals of what you want going out in the film. When you have a visual put down on paper and dawned out, it'll be easy to show you wat the scene. The second reason is the description of each shot. The description helps have a better knowledge of what's going in each shot/scene. For example, if you drew a a zoom in then put: “ zoom in on…”. Storyboarding just makes everything more easier to film because you’ll know what to do.

What will ours look like?

Our storyboard will look like regular storyboards. It’ll have the characters: Kathy, Chuckles the clown, kathy’s friend(s). It’ll have drawings and graphic images from the web. We aren’t artist so we can cant draw to we’ll but the description will have all we need to know what’s going on. But we try to make sure it has every single info we need to make filming easy. We are using studio binder. I recommend this because you can write your script and the storyboard will be so much easier to make and not that much work.

Genre

 Introduction In class we learned about genre. Genre is just a category of a film. Examples can be horror, comedy, action, romance, etc. Genre was probably the most easiest to learn because people talk about different genres everyday not only in film but also in books and other things. My personal favorite is horror comedy because while I am get scared and throwing things I also get some laughter out of it. Some types of genres can be mixed together and balanced out.  Examples Horror comedy - Literary, television, and film genre that combines comedy and horror to form horror comedy Horror comedy mixes horror with comedy to balance out the amount of laughter and the amount of thriller. Horror comedy has been around since 1920s. The first horror comedy was "One exiting night". it was directed by  D. W. Griffith. Stereotypes in this genre is in the horror genre but put into a comedic way.  Sci-fi - a form of fiction that deals principally with the impact of actual or im...

Opening scene

 In class, we learned about different film openings. For example there is Flashbacks, Flash forward, Dreams, etc. The opening scene in a film is the most important part because it has to hook your audience to watch your film. The opening scene also gives some information about what the audience might see during the film. This keeps them curious and wanting to know more about the film.  What is an opening scene? An opening scene is how the movie basically gives information about what’s going to happen during the film. Sometimes the opening scene shows death, lovers coming together or lovers having relationship problems, potential marriage, etc. In opening scenes it also shows the character(s) you should be focusing on the most.  What is an opening scene?

Mise-en-scene

  Mise-en-scene  In class Ive learn that mise-en-scene is to just putting the look and feel on a film. What I mean by putting the look its just means to what my audience will see such as the costume, makeup, characters, the set, etc. This makes me remember live performances because the audience gets to see the characters and their different costumes, different sets, etc. The feel of a film is just how how the film is developed and the kind of feel it give the audience. For example again a live performance its suppose to make the audience feel like they are seeing the actual film. Mise-en-scene allows the audience to experience a time or certain place using its two components design and composition.  Design and composition The two components of mise-en-scene is design and composition. Design is a process in which the look of the setting, props, lighting, characters, etc are determined. To make this more simple the design is just...
