Animatic Storyboard

I drew the animatic storyboard onto printed grids and then annotated key scene actions and technical details. After this I scanned in the storyboards onto my laptop and used Photoshop to edit each individual shot by cropping, straightening and boldening the pencil lines. I then combined voiceovers recorded using my iPhone with the shot images, onto Final Cut Pro and stitched the sequence together in order along with titles and transitions between each one. Below is the final video and the processes used to construct this animatic storyboard. We are yet to finalise our ending as we have various ideas to decide upon. We will update the blog post with our ending at a later date. Although this storyboard has been created, we may stray from shot types when actually filming as new or better ideas and scenes may happen on the day.

Using my iPad to read the written script and my phone's voice memo tool to record voiceovers in prep for the animatic storyboard video.

  1. Amazingly detailed. Your attention to detail e.g. in thinking about lighting, your confident use of terminology and of different technologies is commendable. Very impressive. The only thing you could add in a different post is theory, particularly here Male Gaze and character theory. This is so much better when planned out carefully. Well done you seem to have thought of pretty much everything even water spray!
