Storyboard first update

Today I finished my shot plan and my first draft storyboard. I am really not much of an artist so I have decided that I will now take this and produce a storyboard made from pictures I will take in the locations.

The locations are nearby so it will be easy to re-produce. There is one down fall in that I will have to find all my props early, however for this video it should be simple as I am using all my own props that I have around the house so they shouldn't be too hard to find.

As some of my shots will be taken from inside a moving car (camera car) behind my characters car this means I need to research into how I will do this effectively. I have a few ideas but need to research them so I have a deeper understanding.


Here are some of my ideas -

This is an idea that works with suction cups. They stick to the bonnet of the car and are incredibly secure. Having one of these would assure that I wouldn't get a glimpse of the reflection in the windscreen or of the interior of the camera car.
HOWEVER - This is very expensive! I do not have to budget to be able to afford this.









Another option is to homemake a mount, this would assure I do not get bad shots, but if I am not careful it could break and/or not be strong enough and break to camera. This would not be good news. Even though I am not going to be driving fast it is still an issue that i need to be aware of. Also there is a tight deadline and not a huge amount of time to carefully craft this piece of technology.

The next thing I could do would be to compromise and use well designed camera angles within the camera car. I will have to experiment if I did this.
