I have learned how storyboarding works and how storyboarding helps someone produce film. A storyboard is made similarly to a comic strip using the panel to panel format and can be drawn with stick figures as long as it annotates the film. Storyboards are used to show:
- Characters in the frame
- Dialog
- camera angles
- lighting
- Time between scenes
Filming:
I have learned that filming without a storyboard is tough and that filming requires more time than anticipated. Also you have to be careful as to small details like the camera being level and other things such as if you are entering a room be sure that the lights are on before you go in so in the next scene they don't just suddenly appear on. You need to speak up a lot if you are using the cameras to record sound or when editing the sound will be too quiet or muffled.
Editing:
I found that editing the film was easier than I thought but you needed to be very precise with the timing or your transactions will feel odd. Also you need to take note as to scene order, you can get it surprisingly back to front if you are not careful. Most of the commands using final cut pro were self explanatory however whenever I was stuck a friend could always quickly show me what to do.
