Preliminary Storyboard...

My main idea is the first idea I came up with on my list of ideas, (on a previous post). I liked this idea as it was different an something I could get into. So, before I start my main story board, I thought I would start on making a preliminary storyboard to plan out what I want in each scene, and then elaborate and go into more detail or maybe add more scenes in my main storyboard. 

Shot 1:

  • Establishing shot of town, introducing setting
  • Voice over - 'What if not everyone was human?'
  • Establishing shot shows people moving at normal pace
  • Music starts off quiet, to allow voice over to be heard

Shot 2:

  • Movement is slowed/sped up, time-lapse like
  • Voice over continues - 'That they are more different than we realise.'
  • Slow pan, music quiet in the background to allow voice over to be heard

Shot 3: 

  • Close up of main character/narrator
  • Voice over finishes at this point - 'What if there were others...'
  • Music starts to build up at this point

Shot 4:

  • Pan of filming location
  • Music quietly building up
  • Titles start - From the director of Loan Shark...


Shot 5

  • Medium close up of main character (Megan), she turns towards the camera, hair swishing
  • Credits start up, fades in and out. (Megan Phipps...)

Shot 6:

  • Close up of second main character (the others) has glowing eyes, may show more
  • Credits fade in & out (actors name...)
  • Music still building up
  • Quick fade out

Shot 7: 

  • Quick fade into this shot
  • Characters are running, looking back behind them
  • Voice over - 'What if you had to choose?'
  • Music starts to climax

Shot 8:  

  • Two main characters move in close, the female character moves her hand to rest it on the cheek of the male character
  • Voice over - 'Between saving the one you loved...'
  • Music becomes softer, showing the relationship of the two characters

Shot 9: 

  • Quick cut into fight scene between the main character (who is human) and the others (who are the aliens) 
  • Voice over - 'or saving the entire world...'
  • Music starts to build up again
  • Pan following the one who got kicked/hurt

Shot 10:

  • Title screen, titles fade in, titles are white, glow like effect to link with the others glowing eyes, black background
  • Title - 'The Choice' 'In cinemas November 2013'
  • Music fades out, film credentials come up
