Animatic

This animatic shows the basic story line for our trailer. It shows the first couple of shots that we will be using. This helps us to organise what we are filming when we go out to film. Last year I found it hard to know what to film as our animatic was so basic but this time we have made a much more in depth one that’s going to help with the exact shots and angles to shoot at.

I used a storyboard maker to create this and I feel that its come out really well as you can see the characters clearly. The settings are clearly set out helping us to show what props are meant to be in each scene.

Before I created the animatic I wrote down each individual shot that we could need to include in the story board-this helped when it came down to actually making the animatic as its handy to have everything written down and planned first then just going straight ahead and making it. This way we were able to edit it fast and effectively with out messing around with making shots and deleting them again. It’s also easy to have a paper copy, as this is what we can take with us on our shooting sessions- as well as having the animatic for a hard copy.
