Final Film story board

I'm very pleased with the final outcome of my film. I put in a lot of effort and it payed off in the end.



This is a story board of all the scenes that are in my film. All the components that made up film film slotted together well and i look forward to making another in my A level year... I would also like to thank CRAIG(my media teacher) for all the encouragement and support that he gave to me whilst making this film.

Editing my film with the new shots

When editing my film i a found it a lot more enjoyable the second time round as i felt i new what i was doing and therefore it didn't take so long. I also like the new camera shots as they were a lot more intimate to watch and had a better view of the characters. I found that the first time round i had hardly used a variety of shot sizes, where as the second time i was more confident using the camera and was able to experiment with it.

1st attempt of making my film

I made my film with the intention of it being my final copy, however once i had completed it, i found the narrative very boring to watch so i decided to include another character which changed the story completely. I also added parallel action as it created a feeling of fast pace.

Shot lists

This shot list was very useful when i came to the editing suite as i had an idea of where abouts each shot was on the tape, how long it lasted for and the type of shot it was. I am pleased i chose to create this as it made my life a whole lot easier.

Brainstorm Ideas For my Film

I generated a few ideas when i first looked into the thriller genre. I came up with a few, however, decided to go with a completely different idea after researching more thriller films. Once i had done this research, i felt more confident about the thriller genre and therefore came up with a suitable narrative of my own.

Initial Story Board

This story board shows the original plan for my film, however after shooting and editing I realized that there were a few problems with the continuity. I also found the narrative of the film quite boring and slow moving. It did not resemble the thriller genre that i had researched and therefore i decided to change it and re-shoot most of my film.
