For our next task we were asked to create a storyboard for the outline of our trailer. In the storyboard we included sketched pictures of the types of camera shots and any text or background we were going to include.
Firstly i wrote a 'summary' of the plot of our trailer before sketching our storyboard.
1- Medium shot of 3 characters (girls) dancing in a club, Close up track of each of the girls faces
2- Screen goes black and a fade of 'Newline Cinema' logo and text appears in the centre of the screen
3- Long shot a girls bedroom with girls either side of bed packing their suitcases - dialogue
4- Extreme zoom in of picture girl is holding in her hand
5- Extreme close up of all 3 girls 'disgusted' look on their faces
6- Text fades in '3 normal girls'
7- Long-shot of School Bus and girls as they appear from the left with their 'ton' of luggage
8- Medium shot of an eye staring in the bus winmirror as the girls load onto the bus
9- Text 'on a school trip'
10- Long shot of scenery - place where they have arrived, people putting up tents in the background
11- Text 'what could go wrong?', fades in with a 'fuzzy' noise
12- Medium shot of girls around fire
13- Loud scream arises, medium shot behind girls are they turn around in shock
14- Medium shot, fitting all girls faces in, of their reaction to the scream - sheer horror in their expressions
15- Text 'EVERYTHING...', fades in, text changes to a different font and colour
16- Quick 'flash' to a a long shot of a silhouette standing in the middle of the dark woods, turning their head towards the camera
17- Quick 'flash' to next scene of a medium shot of girls feet running through the woods
18- Close up as the eye, and half a face appears from behind a tree, watching the girls as they run.
19- Quick 'flash' to next scene of a close up of an arm on the floor of the woods, hand covered in blood clenching the ground, fades out to next scene
20- Medium shot of girls on bus, being comforted by teacher
21- Close up of teachers sly 'smirk' expression as he turns to face the window, holding the girls
22- Tracking in a circular motion of posters with a 'missing sign'
23- Girl alone hears a similar noise\scream back at school, medium shot, camera behind, of girl walking towards the class room slowly
24- medium shot behind girl still, enters room, door slams - extreme close up of door as it slams towards camera
25- Extreme close up of window of door, hand appears on window and drags down the window slowly
26- Text 'name of film' and release date
I then drew images for my storyboard to help further explain the camera angles and shots.
