This is my script for the project “The Meeting”.
In this you will see the way in which I want the film to go with what type of characters, where its going to be filmed and also any props or costumes that should be used. This will help me when I’m filming because the characters will know what they are doing and saying but also gives an insight as to how the filming should go e.g. where I’m going to film with the camera.
With doing this it helped me know how to write up a script in the best possible way. It also showed me that the use of fonts, words e.g. characters and where I should write about a scene before or after. It also helps to visualise an idea or see if anything should be tweaked from an original idea.
Shot List for The Meeting
This is the shot list for “The Meeting”.
In this you will see the way in which I hope to have each shot to go in many aspects. I expect the characters to go with when filming, the sounds that I may want to use when editing the film but also gives me an insight as to how long I hope each shot will betaken. Also tells what camera angle I want each shot which allows the characters to know why and what degree I’m shooting at with each shot so they know where to not to get in the way and so on.
With doing this it helped me to know how towrite up a shot list in detail that will help any cast/crew what they need to and say in simple terms but also the shots I planned to do of each character. The sound parts gives an idea what types of things that might be picked up by the camera.
Below you can see a screenshot of a work in process storyboard. To create the storyboardI am using storyboardthat.com. The reason for this is because of the wide range of things the website has but also because if I did this by hand it would take longer. You can see that I have started by showing the clown hiding behind 2 sets of tress close to each other in the first box. In the second box it shows a path with a person walking down the path but also showing the options in which I can change any person.
Below you can see that after doing some more searching I found things that look real and would happen in a real life e.g. people going for a walk in the woods. The reason as to why I changed it from the screenshot above is because the colours are almost plastic but I don’t want that because I want people to see it in a real life way. The two people that are walking through the woods are Mother and son with a casual stroll in the park with no idea there a clown down the path.
In this screenshot you can see the third one across that the two actors are close to clown but they stop for a break while still talking about what they should do next. If they should carry on or stay in the same place. In the forth one you can see the clown appear from the lurks of the tree. I added the scream mask as added affect of someone being scared and in a troubled situation.
In the last two you can see the two actors pleading with the clown to let them go cause if they promise they wouldn’t blab so surely he should let them go, right?
In this one below you can see the clown thinks it highly funny with the begging and doesn’t care what they are saying cause he knows the area even if they do run. Also with the two planning to get away whilst the clown still laughs and says theres no chance they can run away. In the third box across the mother starts to run but at this point the son has only just got up.
The screenshot below shows the clown isn’t going to show no mercy to the two walkers. They are there now and he wont let them go for the world. With this the clown lets them know that they wont be going back to wherever they wanted to go.
