Preliminary Exercise // Conversation Storyboard

This is the layout that I will use while producing storyboards for the different videos that I will create throughout my project. It consists of a large box to draw a simple version of the camera shot, a box to write the shot number, length and duration, and a box to write the camera angle used and a brief description of what happens in the shot. I will use one of these layout templates for each shot of the videos that I produce in order to properly plan the rise en scene and camera shots/movements prior to filming; this ensures that the time used for filming is used in the most efficient way as none of it is wasted on planning what to do.

This is a storyboard that shows and explains the camera shots in my short conversation preliminary video that I pitched to my group. Although we did not decide to use this storyboard for our video, drawing it helped me to understand how to produce storyboards that can be used for planning videos.
