I haven't had any emails with film posters, so obviously you all need to continue and complete this work. If you have done the posters, continue your storyboards.
All information needed is on the blog.

Task: To storyboard the opening of your film
By now you should have finished your film posters. If I don't receive an email, I have to assume you have done no work, and this will obviously be reflected in your grades which I will enter on Tuesday morning. Thank you.
Based on the 'your film' (the one you have made/are making the poster for), your next task is to storyboard the opening to your film.

Storyboard extract from Mad Men |
A storyboard is like a graphic novel - a brief sketch of how your film will look. You don't need to draw every shot, just the key shots in the sequence.
These are used on set to represent each 'take'.
For this you need nothing more than paper and a pen, and ideally some artistic ability. Obviously in the room there are some excellent artists, but stickmen and a bit of shading is fine too.
Basics: Camera angle, camera distance, and light
- You should aim to sketch 16 - 32 images;
- In each image, try to indicate camera angle, distance and light;
- Start with an establishing shot;
- Think carefully about how you will introduce your main character(s);
- Don't forget to add close ups;
- Include any camera instructions or direction you like;
- Feel free to include dialogue in bubbles, like a comic.

Good luck, enjoy and work hard.
Dear All
