After we individually had written a treatment we got into groups. My group was Remi, Sverre, Kim and myself. We decided to make storyboard and animatic of Sverre's treatment. Originally idea by Remi. Everyone in the group was drawing on the storyboard. Some more then others, but i think it was great to be 4 people on drawing and discussing story, cameraangles, emotions, expressions and so on. I really enjoyed the storyboard part. It was fun, educational and really inspiring. One thing we did that was great for seeing the story and deciding on better angles and shots. We drew the shots on A2 paper. 3x3 shots. Then placed this on the wall in secuence. We could stand in one spot and look on three walls surrounding us and see if the story was and the shots matched together. Something that i though about alot was the camera angles. Some examples: over the shoulder, high and low angle, establishing shot. The 180 degree rule and others. These had to be done right to tell the visual story better. Im glad we learned alot about camera angles, and after drawing on this storyboard i have learned alot about how to make good shots. Thanks to a collaborating group who worked hard and shared thoughts, we did not just get a really good storyboard, but i think we all learned alot from this.

We discussed alot about how to set up the camera angles to tell the story better. We did some changes to the shots. This wasnt hard to spot since we had all our shots up on the wall. If we were to make changes we probably would make more shots and expanding the story a bit. One connection between the two human characters would need to be more clear. So if we had the time. We know exactly what to change. We have gathered feedback from other classmates about the storyboard and the animatic. The feedback was good and as mentioned. We know what we would have changed and added to the board.

When I see how little time we had to make this storyboard, im really happy with all we managed to do. The group worked excellent, and i would defenatly work with the same group another time.


Here is two of my final storyboard sheets. After some drawfts and changing of shots.

And here is the treatment for our project. Dr. Bum.
