As we have completed editing the sequence for our opening sequence, in today's lesson we looked at creating music for the party scene and finding the perfect title for our movie. We looked at many different examples of movie titles in romantic and coming of age film genres in order to get inspired and get an idea of the types of titles that would be most appropriate. We didn't want anything that was too cheesy and by looking at titles which other movies had, most of them were cheesy and included the word 'Love', and so we wanted to be more original in creating our title. Here are some movie titles I found of romantic/ coming of age genres:
The title we have decided to give our movie is 'Snakes and Ladders' as we thought this would be appropriate for our genre and it wasn't something too cheesy. We decided to call this because in our movie the couple would go through ups and downs in their relationship, such as go through phases which may knock their relationship down, but then they might get back together and result in an equilibrium, climbing up the ladder again. I think this is an appropriate movie title because it suits our target audience well because it is aimed at young adults, and so they may be able to relate with these realistic situations in our movie.
Today, there are 6 major film distribution companies such as:
1) Warner Brothers: Comprising a whopping 19.7 percent of the
US/Canadian market share (2007 figures), Warner Bros. Pictures is the
biggest player in the film industry. Securing the rights to major films
like Harry Potter, Superman, Batman, The Matrix and Star Wars have made
Warner Bros. the No. 1 name in the business.
What makes a film like Harry Potter successful and eye capturing is that it has the ability to take the audience into a fantasy world; detaching them from their everyday live. The use of green screen effects makes these movies extra special because the movie becomes more magical and therefore interesting, such as when they are flying on a broomstick. As the majority of the target audience is young adults, they would be drawn into these supernatural abilities and the visual effects create a sense of excitement, increasing the adrenaline rush in the audience.
2)Paramount Pictures: With 15.5 percent of the US/Canadian market share
(2007 figures), Paramount Pictures continues to be one of the most
successful film production companies in the world. Star Trek, War of the
Worlds, the Mission Impossible series, Transformers and Tropic Thunder
are just a few of the popular films produced by Paramount Pictures.
This film appears exciting because of the incredible use of visual effects in this film, such as the air raids around the city. As things like this do not happen in real life, this movie, like the Harry Potter one, enters us into a different world which makes us immediately drawn in by. Throughout the whole trailer there is a sense of excitement by the sound effects, the powerful buildings and costumes that the characters are wearing and the transformers themselves. They are capturing to us because of the superior way they have been made, and their strength and power further heightens our adrenaline.
3) Walt Disney: One of the most renowned film production companies in the
history of the business, Walt Disney now holds 15.3 percent of the
US/Canadian market share (2007 figures). With highly successful movies
like Pirates of the Caribbean, National Treasure, Meet the Robinsons and
Enchanted, there's no doubt that Disney will continue to play a key
role in the industry for years to come.
The Pirates of the Caribbean is a
popular movie because they the exciting use of locations and scenery
they have used (such as at the beginning) attract the audiences, as well
as the whole concept of Pirates. The cast is also very crucial when
making a highly successful film, and I think that Johnny Depp fulfills
this role because he is able to provide humor without even trying,
making him perfect for the main role.
4) Columbia Picture: Comprising 12.9 percent of the US/Canadian market
share (2007 figures), Columbia Pictures remains a big player in the
business. Some of this company's recent successes include Casino Royale,
The Da Vinci Code, the Spider-Man series and Step Brothers.
The Spider-man series is also a very successful movie project. One reason could be is because of the inhuman capabitlity the main character possesses, which gives him power than the rest of us as he, such as jumping over building. This therefore creates excitement by these super human qualities and the fact that he appears like a normal man is further mesmerizing. The fast cutting between the spider-man jumping from one building onto another one adds to the tension and excitement of the movie, making it to appeal to its young adult audience.
5) Universal Studios: 12.2 percent of the US/Canadian market share (2007
figures) belongs to Universal Studios, which continues to make millions
for the film industry. With major hits like the Bourne series (Bourne
Identity, Bourne Supremacy and Bourne Ultimatum), The American Pie
series, Knocked Up, American Gangster and The Incredible Hulk, it's very
clear that Universal Studios knows what it takes to make money in this
industry.
The American Pie series are popular because of its humour. The cast in these movies are able to entertain us throughout the movie, and the constant partying and 'easy' life which they are living in makes it appealing to any young adult viewer watching and so keeps them interested.
6) 20th Century Fox: Also known as "Twentieth Century Fox," this highly
successful movie production company makes up 11.9 percent of the
US/Canadian market share (2007 figures). Some of the biggest and most
successful movies from this empire include the X-Men series, Mr. and
Mrs. Smith, Star Wars Episodes II and III, and the Fantastic Four.
This is also a popular and successful movie because the characters powerful abilities, the violence, fast paced action and heroic clothing create a thrilling sense of vitality and so would not keep the audience watching bored or disinterested. With the use of air raids in the air this further increases the excitement and the dramatic music that goes along with these fast paced actions really overwhelming, gripping its audience into the movie.
I have looked at some title credits in order to see in what order they are being put in and therefore where me and my group can have out credits and titles in.
“A title sequence is the method by which cinematic films or
television programs present their title, key production and cast member,
or both, utilizing conceptual visuals and sound. It usually follows but
should not be confused with the opening credits, which are generally
nothing more than a series of superimposed text”.
This
was taken from a website called
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Title_sequence. This gave me an idea of
what title sequences are and when and how to use them during the editing
process. I looked into a film called ‘District 9’ and how they used
their title sequences in introducing the film.
From carrying out research into how the stages of an opening title
sequence are produced I have found that the order usually revolves
around introducing the director, the creator’s logo, who the film was
associated with and who the film is by, then the film begins. This was
evident in the opening title sequence of the film ‘District 9’. This is
how it began:
This is the logo of the company who produced the film. In our opening sequence, we are going to include the logo of our production name NNIK in similar way before the actual film starts as it is important.
They then went onto show the directors name, this is to indicate who the film was directed by. In our movie, I think that it would be best if we put the cast, music creator, editor, etc at the very beginning of the party scene whilst I am walking and delivering the drinks. I think this would be more effective than creating them separate because many people wouldn't pay attention to them as much if it was just plain text on its own.
Following on from the directors name the titles introduce of the film
was associated with; similarly we are also going to put this at the very beginning, before the actual film starts.
The
titles then move on to mentioning who the film the film was produced
by, in this case the movies producers are from a company called
'Wingnut'. Also as this is the last action of the title sequence
diegetic dialogue begins to start playing, many films do this to add
mystery to the film and it is also a good way for the audience to know
when the film is about to begin. However, in our sequence we have decided to go with a humorous and light non-dietetic sound of a cow. I think this sets up the genre of and makes the audience feel relaxed rather than tense (important for what our genre of coming of age/ romance as it is not a horror movie).
After
all of the opening titles are played and the audience have been
introduced to the creation of the film the film can start playing.
From doing this research, we can apply these to our film and I now have a good idea of where our credits should go in the sequence.
Film Distributors:§A
film distributor is a company/ individual who is accountable for the
advertising of a film. The distributor may set the release date of a film and
the way in which a film shall be displayed/ made available for viewing. The best examples of
this are: video on demand (VoD), DVD/Blu-ray, TV and download. A distributor
may well do this independently, but this is only if they own theatres to do so
otherwise it will be done through other theatrical exhibitors. What are the film distributors main objectives?:The main objective of a distributor is to persuade the exhibitor to essentially ‘buy’ a film. With
this in mind, a distributor will often organize industry screenings for exhibitors, and will use other marketing
techniques that will make the exhibitor a) want to show the film and b) make a profit
from the film What else do film distributors do?:After this, the distributor will:
-Secure a written contract, which specifies the amount of the gross
ticket sales to be paid to the distributor
-Collect
the money
-Review
the exhibitor's
ticket sales (this is to ensure the gross informed by the exhibitor is precise)
-Secure
the distributor's share, and diffuse the remaining money to the production company/others
-In most cases this is a set amount but
may be varied depending on the film.
Distributing for everyone to see: -The Film distributor must therefore create enough
advertising for their film. They may do this such as advertising on media networks such as Facebook, Twitter, etc Thet may also put adverts on buses, at bus stops, hand out leaflets, packages, merchandise and more.
Here are some adverts on the way Harry Potter has distributed their movie:
Film Premiers are also a great way to promote the movie because it brings together all the fans and if they enjoyed this event then they can pass it on their friends and other people, creating interest in a larger number of people, thus spreading the word of the film.
What must a film distributor think about?: §A film’s first weekend in cinemas is vital for further success; most films gain 30% or more of its entire
box office during the first three days, which is why it is important to get the marketing
correct.
§Film distributors must think about:
§Who is the audience?
§Who does the film speak to?
§Do the story, characters and situation attract the audience?
§Does the film make up for the cost (risk) of a theatrical release?
§What sort of audiences have similar films attracted recently?
§These are all very important and explains why many
distributors may only release 1-2 a year
and others may release 20-30.
The different scenes and settings of distribution:§Different releases are accomplished in diverse ways. A blockbuster release may open simultaneously on 1000 screens UK-wide playing at
two or more screens per multiplex:
this includes large scale
sequels or star led holiday releases and
therefore helps to
accommodate mass audiences eager to see a film at the earliest opportunity. Sometimes, a single
print can service multiple screens if they are ‘interlocked’.
In film theory, genre refers to the method based on similarities in the narrative elements from which films are constructed. There are many different types of film genres such as:
Action films usually include high energy, big-budget physical stunts and chases, possibly with rescues, battles, fights, escapes, destructive crises (floods, explosions, natural disasters, fires, etc.), non-stop motion, spectacular rhythm and pacing, and adventurous, often two-dimensional 'good-guy' heroes (or recently, heroines) battling 'bad guys' - all designed for pure audience escapism. Includes the James Bond 'fantasy' spy/espionage series, martial arts films, and so-called 'blaxploitation' films.
Adventure films are usually exciting stories, with new experiences or exotic locales, very similar to or often paired with the action film genre. They can include traditional swashbucklers, searches or expeditions for lost continents, "jungle" and "desert" epics, treasure hunts, disaster films, or searches for the unknown.
Comedies are light-hearted plots consistently and deliberately designed to amuse and provoke laughter (with one-liners, jokes, etc.) by exaggerating the situation, the language, action, relationships and characters.
Crime (gangster) films are developed around the sinister actions of criminals or mobsters, particularly bankrobbers, underworld figures, or ruthless hoodlums who operate outside the law, stealing and murdering their way through life. Criminal and gangster films are often categorized as film noir or detective mystery films - because of underlying similarities between these cinematic forms. This category includes a description of various 'serial killer' films.
Dramas are serious, plot-driven presentations, portraying realistic characters, settings, life situations, and stories involving intense character development and interaction. Usually, they are not focused on special-effects, comedy, or action, Dramatic films are probably the largest film genre, with many subsets.
Epics include costume dramas, historical dramas, war films, medieval romps, or 'period pictures' that often cover a large expanse of time set against a vast, panoramic backdrop. Epics often share elements of the elaborate adventure films genre. Epics take an historical or imagined event, mythic, legendary, or heroic figure, and add an extravagant setting and lavish costumes, accompanied by grandeur and spectacle, dramatic scope, high production values, and a sweeping musical score. Epics are often a more spectacular, lavish version of a biopic film. Some 'sword and sandal' films (Biblical epics or films occuring during antiquity) qualify as a sub-genre.
Horror films are designed to frighten and to invoke our hidden worst fears, often in a terrifying, shocking finale, while captivating and entertaining us at the same time in a cathartic experience. Horror films feature a wide range of styles, from the earliest silent Nosferatu classic, to today's CGI monsters and deranged humans. They are often combined with science fiction when the menace or monster is related to a corruption of technology, or when Earth is threatened by aliens. The fantasy and supernatural film genres are not usually synonymous with the horror genre. There are many sub-genres of horror: slasher, teen terror, serial killers, Satanic, Dracula, Frankenstein, etc.
Sci-fi films are often quasi-scientific, visionary and imaginative - complete with heroes, aliens, distant planets, impossible quests, improbable settings, fantastic places, great dark and shadowy villains, futuristic technology, unknown and unknowable forces, and extraordinary monsters ('things or creatures from space'), either created by mad scientists or by nuclear havoc.Science fiction often expresses the potential of technology to destroy humankind and easily overlaps with horror films, particularly when technology or alien life forms become malevolent, as in the "Atomic Age" of sci-fi films in the 1950s.
The action of this title sequence is supposed to take place between 1963 and 1969. I think that the music matches this style very well, because, not only does it create a feeling of being around that time period, but at times the orchestra will range from being high to low pitched which creates this running feeling and so it matches title. I like how the title sequence is very plain and consists of mainly white, blue and black which creates the sense that it is quite formal and therefore the target audience would not be for younger people but adults or older teens. The title sequence is also effective because the tall long black letters match the tall, stick black characters we are shown, and the fact that the letters on the title are extended further matches the name of the film which is about trying to 'catch' someone. I also like how the opening sequence does not consist of real people but it is also like a cartoon, and the swanky music further creates a sense of excitement. Here is a picture of the drawings before the actual sequence was made:
I thought that the way they created the credits was also very interesting and entertaining because of the way they have tried to match the sequence with the actual credits title. For example: What is also effective is the choice of colours used; in a recent interview by Florence Deygas this is what he had to say about this:
The color palette does so much to set the feel of the jet setting era in which the film takes place. Was there an intentionality to the colors that you selected and if so, what materials did you reference?
The film takes place in the 1960s and Spielberg desired for us to transplant the audience into a varied universe, with a bit of chic and a sense of drama (certainly not a humorous cartoon). We decided to take on the same approach as those who created title sequences during that era: as if we were in that era, working amongst colleagues. Not in terms of technological means, but in terms of philosophy. We wanted to deliver a personal creation that has our mark, that works in contrast to studio title sequences in which the artist’s hand is less visible. We wish to have the audience of this film rediscover a paradise lost.
The colours signal geographical and temporal transitions. The silhouettes stem from our own graphic vocabulary with a sixties twist so it adheres to the subject matter. We decided to employ them here for their symbolic force. The silhouette evokes a character we all ignore — the hero is a trickster. Those are in fact hand-carved stamps, animated in a traditional manner on paper by hand. That “handmade” aspect belongs to title sequences of that era.
In the creative arts, credits are an acknowledgment of those who participated in the production. They are often shown at the end of movies and on CD jackets. In film, television, theatre, etc. the names of actors and behind the scenes staff who contributed in this production.
Opening Credits
The opening credits show the most important people at the beginning i.e. the actors that are taking part, the director, producer editor and more. They are usually shown on a blank screen, at the bottom/ top of action and even next to the characters and where the action is taking place. This for me makes it more visually interesting and we are able to see exactly who the characters are, and doesn't bore the audience by looking at just plain text on a plain background, but the action keeps their attention drawn to the movie.
Opening credits since the 1980s, identify the major characters and crew, while the closing credits list the extensive cast and production crew. Here is a typical way of how credits are being layed out:
Common opening credits order
While there are numerous variations most opening credits use some variation of the basic order[4] noted within:
(NAME OF THE STUDIO)
Name of the studio
that is distributing the film and may or may not have produced it (Walt
Disney Pictures, Columbia, Lions Gate, Universal, Marvel Studios,
Dimension, Miramax etc.).
(NAME OF THE PRODUCTION COMPANY)
Name of the production company
that actually made the film or name of the investment groups or
companies that financed a substantial part of the film (usually credited
as "in association with" or "A (studio name) production.").
(PRODUCER NAME) PRODUCTION or/and (director only) A FILM BY (DIRECTOR NAME)
Director's first credit, often "a film by XY or "a XY film".
STARRING
Principal actors and the most important cast in the film.
(FILM'S TITLE)
Name of the film.
FEATURING
Featured actors
CASTING or CASTING BY
Casting Director
MUSIC or MUSIC COMPOSED BY or ORIGINAL SCORE BY
Composer of music
PRODUCTION DESIGN or PRODUCTION DESIGNER
As a variation some of the below may be noted:
SET DESIGN
COSTUMES or COSTUMES BY or GOWNS (older movies)
HAIRDRESSER
MAKE-UP ARTIST
SOUND RECORDING (older movies)
VISUAL EFFECTS DIRECTOR or VISUAL EFFECTS BY
EDITOR or EDITED BY
DIRECTOR OF PHOTOGRAPHY
PRODUCER or PRODUCED BY, EXECUTIVE PRODUCER
Producers, co-producers, executive producers,
'also produced by' (credited for various reasons according to contracts
and personal scrutiny of the principal producer). Often, though, the
name of the producer will be the next-to-last opening credit, just
before the director's name is shown.
BASED ON THE BOOK (PLAY, GRAPHIC NOVEL etc.) BY or FROM A PLAY/BOOK BY (older movies)
If based on a book or other literary work.
BASED ON THE CHARACTERS BY or BASED ON THE CHARACTERS CREATED BY
If based on characters from a book or other media.
STORY or STORY BY
Person who wrote the story on which the script is based, gets "story
by" credit, and the first screenplay credit, unless the script made
substantial changes to the story.
WRITER(S) or WRITTEN BY
DIRECTOR or DIRECTED BY
Director.
The Directors Guild of America usually permits a film to list only one
director, even when it is known that two or more worked on it.
As our genre is between romantic and a coming of age genre, me and my group wanted the distribution opening to be creative and interactive, which would capture the audience's attention immediately but also be creative as well. For example, looking at some of the major distribution companies, their opeinings prior to the actual movie is very creative. This is the way Dreamworks Pictures open:
I really like this opening theme because what we see is parallel to their title' Dreamworks' and the use of the colours blue & white and puffy clouds creates this dreamy feeling. It also has a calm and soothing effect which is important because Dreamworks films are animation and adventure movies aimed at young people, therefore this suits nicely for their type of audience and genre. Below is the Paramount Pictures opening theme for their 100th Anniversary:
I thought again this was very creative, and the use of pink sky, beautiful mountain and lake, this helps to create a sense of enchantment , which is effective because this could be what their movies are about. For example films like Transformers and Iron Man 2 are distributed by Paramount Pictures, and are adventure films. Therefore, this is effective in creating this feeling and it is something we also want to create in our opening sequence. We want it to be exciting right from the start, preparing our audience to feel in a thrilling/ happy mood.
This week and next week we need to start creating our credits to go into our opening sequence. I have found some examples below which I enjoy and think are effective:
Lord of War
Although the credits are very basic and just appear in standard font and are of one colour, I think this is effective because it doesn't distract the attention of the visually creative and entertaining action in the background. Some of the letters actually appear quite long and straight with no swirly letters which you might see in a romantic or chick flick genre; therefore this is perfect for this type of genre and target audience who might be older. The bright font is easy to see from the dark/ uncanny atmosphere we are being shown in the background which makes it easier to see but the style is not too distracting so that viewers do not miss the important action.
Thank you for smoking
I found the credits on this opening sequence very visually creative and entertaining to watch. I liked how the credits appeared on the vintage cigarette packets which is effective because it matches the title of the movie, which is obviously referring to cigarettes. The names of all the people are in different fonts, shapes, colours and sizes which I also found effective because although there is no particular important action, the fast pacing of the credits and different colours capture the readers attention, drawing them in to want to watch more. Overall, I liked the whole idea of the way they presented the credits and I think it was different from any other opening sequence I have watched. The fact that it is so original is what makes it unique and interesting.
The Notebook
The title credits for The Notebook are very simple and basic, which is effective because they aren't distracting from the enchanting and breathtaking scenery we are presented with. They also very small and usually at side of the corner which I thought was very unusual. I liked the simple and elegance to these credits although I did find this a bit boring because I thought it dragged on for too long. In order to make our opening sequence enteratining I think we should make our credits for eye-capturing and entertaining which is unique. This way people can be drawn in, because the opening sequence is what will determine whetehr people will wathc the movie.
In most romantic/ coming of age films there are particular stereotypes that make up these movies, such as the representation of the characters. For example, in the film Mean Girls 2, the girls are being presented as being these really materialistic, stereotypical girls who wear excessive amount of pink, have the 'perfect hair' and the latest designer clothes. In this film, they are referred to as the 'plastics' because they obsess about being an ideal and 'perfect' image which constitutes to their Barbie-like image. They are presented as having really shallow, personalities, adding to their 'mean' character and therefore makes the viewers watching feel less sympathy for them. However, the other girls around them, who are less popular than them, stereotypically wear less trendy clothes which appear dull; this is effective because it makes these 'plastic' girls stand out the most as they draw the most attention. Normally, as these popular girls stand out so much and differ from everyone else, this is an effective way of giving them more power and individuality than others, making them appear as these really confident girls who frequently boast about their fortunate lifestyles.
Below are the outfits worn by the major characters of this movie:
The three girls on the far right hand side are refered to as the 'plastics' because everything about them is made to perfection, creating this stereotypical girly role. Their fashion style mainly consists of purple and pink which again adds to the femininity of their characters and the floral detailing on their dresses could be a way of making them appear more prettier than everyone else, like a flower. Through the use of accessories and high heeled shoes, this again creates these stereotypical female characters and so the viewers can immediately distinguish them from the other characters. However, we can see that the girls on the left hand side are 'less popular' because their outfits are less girly and much duller than the materialistic girls. As they wear boots, this shows that they are ordinary school girls which make the audience appeal to them more as they appear realistic than the others, who are far too made up. As these type of girls are usually less powerful than girls like the plastics, we are able to sympathise with them more because they deal with issues probably many teenage girls watching are able to relate to them. Stereotypically these characters also endure many hardships and there is usually competition between the popular and unpopular characters, because although the plastics have trendiest clothes, not many people like them because of their unkind behaviour towards others. Therefore, by the end of these type of movies there is a drastic change in character, where the unpopular girls rise in their status or become more well-known, whereas the popular plastics are despised by many of the characters, causing them to become less powerful.
Here's the path a film usually takes to get to your local theater:
Someone has an idea for a movie.
They create an outline and use it to promote interest in the idea.
A studio or independent investor decides to purchase rights to the film.
People are brought together to make the film (screenwriter, producer, director, cast, crew).
The film is completed and sent to the studio.
The studio makes a licensing agreement with a distribution company.
The distribution company determines how many copies (prints) of the film to make.
The distribution company shows the movie (screening) to prospective buyers representing the theaters.
The buyers negotiate with the distribution company on which movies they wish to lease and the terms of the lease agreement.
The prints are sent to the theaters a few days before the opening day.
The theater shows the movie for a specified number of weeks (engagement).
You buy a ticket and watch the movie.
At the end of the engagement, the theater sends the print back to the distribution company and makes payment on the lease agreement.
It has been said that making a movie is not nearly as difficult as getting it distributed. Because of the enormous amount of cost in money and time involved in distributing a movie, a distributor must feel confident that they can make a sufficient return on their investment. Having the backing of a major studio or a well known director or star can greatly improve the chances of securing a good distribution deal. Independent filmmakers often use film festivals as an opportunity to get the attention of distributors. Once a distributor is interested in a film, the two parties arrive at a distribution agreement based on one of two financial models:
Leasing
Profit sharing
When a distributor has leased a movie, they will try to determine the best strategy for opening the movie. Opening refers to the official debut of a movie. There are several factors to consider:
Studio
Target Audience
Star power
Buzz
Season
While first run movies that have just been released are loss leaders, movies that have been out for a while can be profitable for the theaters that show them. Second run theaters often get very attractive leasing terms from the distributor. These theaters are facing increasing competition though, as first run theaters continue to show more movies past the traditional four to six week time frame.
We have been starting to look for music which might fit in nicely with our opening sequence when the girl and boy are getting ready and there is a inter-cutting between the two main characters. What would be ideal is something which creates a positive energy as it is an important aspect of most romantic or coming of age films in order to captivate the audience and make them feel intrigued to watch. For example, in Legally Blonde, the lyrics of the song at the beginning' Perfect Day' is a parallel match to what we actually see. The atmosphere looks pleasant, it's sunny, everyone is having a good time, smiles on their faces and so this all makes us feel the same way also. It is also quite upbeat and this is something we want to create in our opening sequence also. As the singer is also a female, this is why this would be ideal to be shown when the girl in our sequence is getting ready, however, when the boy is getting ready we were going to use music which appears more suited that a guy would listen- fulfilling the stereotypical characters. Overall, I think the sound used in Legally Blonde is effective because for the target audience of 15-25 year olds, who are mainly girls, this would satisfy them and make them feel in a position where they would be happy to want to know more. The music used also aids them to feel in a satisfied, jolly mood, which is something we would like to create with our opening sequence.
Before filming the actual footage for our opening sequence, we have created a storyboard which is part of our pre-production stage. Creating a storyboard helped us immensely when it came to filming because the first day of filming we were still have did not complete our storyboard so had trouble finding the right type of shots to film. This was also not ideal because it wasted a lot of time. SO we then created a storyboard and the weekend period of shooting the opening sequence (26-27th January) we had all the shots we needed, and dealing with so many people we were able to be more organized and confident in what we needed.
Here is the storyboard we had created: (although during the filming day we did add more shots we thought would be good at that time)
