New Storyboard...

During last Fridays lesson when me and Alex were in exams, Rachel and Mercedes designed a new storyboard for our new teaser trailer. We don't need to redo our animatic but we wanted to re-do a new storyboard so that when we go to film we will have a more organised plan and structure to follow, which will help us to get the filming done in a organised and quick manner. This was a problem we had with the filming we had previously done for our other story, in which we didn't have a structure to follow and therefore got of task quickly. The new storyboard shows that there will still be the 3 production companies at the beginning which is still jellyfish productions, Wolff productions and universal. We are still keeping these companies as in many teaser trailers, there are more than one production company shown at the beginning but as not to take up too much time, they are only played for a maximum of 3-4seconds. This will follow with the first scene which is the reporter (Lewis) who is waiting to interview a famous actress which turns out to Mercedes.  This scene will consist of a quick shot of him waiting and then her walking in. A caption will be shown here to illustrate this.We then wanted to zoom into him eyes or use a dissolve which will show he is looking back into his past. Turning out to show how he used to be the geeky, clumsy boy who wasn't good enough for this girl who had an attitude and was a popular girl in the school. We didn't want to give too much away so we are going to use 3 quick clips of him being clumsy and a geek, while showing her ignoring him and almost sniggering at him. A caption will be shown her as if to suggest she wasn't interested in him. These will cut back to his face and then her face, we want her to have a effective expression on her face or maybe sorting out her hair to suggest that now the tables have turned and she likes him instead. This is challenging normal conventions as the boy is normally chasing the girl, as we kept this at the beginning we wanted to give the storyline a slight twist and challenge the conventions with the girl liking the boy instead. We also want to include a soundtrack throughout as this is typically used in rom-com teaser trailers, with not much speech. We wanted a tune which is up beat to hook in the audience but something that suggest love and romance.
