Storyboard with narration

Image
I decided to narrate my storyboard to make sure that it maintained continuity and was coherent. I placed each of the photos on a timeline in premiere pro and then narrated them.

Aims draft for evaluation

Aims - Produce an industry standard screenplay - Produce an industry standard storyboard which effectively communicates my screenplay. Industrial context Target audience The film will resonate universally. Elevator music, and how annoying it is, is something that many people can emphasise with. It will be predominantly aimed at a 16-35 year old audience as they will appreciate the dark comedic genre of the film. Techniques for positioning audience I use misc-en-scene with the Walkman to effectively communicate how Jack loves music. This reinforces how important his hearing is to him - therefore making it more poignant when he looses it to elevator music.

Depressing Songs

https://www.nme.com/list/50-songs-about-depression-1109 Here is a list that I've been looking through to listen too as I continue to write my screenplay. Hopefully they will put me in the same frame of mind as the main character. I may also end up choosing to use a few of these in my screenplay as soundtracks etc.

Location Recce

The location of elevator G is good because it has a staircase near it, this would allow the tracking shot of him walking down the stairs with the elevator in the background - however it is located in a main corridor which might be busy when taking the storyboard pictures.

Dialogue

Derek known to his friends as southern boy is confronted by Derek a upper class child about why he hasn't been invited to Dereks party. EXT. Playground - DAY Derek Ya see it wasn't ma decision Chris Who made the decision, then? Derek Arnolds Chris Your party Derek Mam said the van would- Chris (cutting off) My mom can bring Derek (cutting off) Don't wanna put your mam Chris (cutting off) She will not mind Derek (cutting off) Last time Chris I didn't mean t Derek You clobbered him over his head with a blast Chris I was reloading Derek You thought you were Rambo. Your banned anyway. Mam says Chris What about... Derek Mom says you are crazy Chris What about this fantastic birthday present...  Through writing this I have learnt a technique of covering up the characters names to see if their dialogue is easily to distinguish.
