R&P Story board
Shot 1: This shot will show an establishing shot of the main character in desolate area where everything has been destroyed (hopefully we will be able to use Wisley airfield for this) The camera will pan around the character and the shot will be a medium shot, the shot will then zoom out into a long shot. There will be no dialogue in this shot however there will be the ambient noise from the scene and some music playing
Shot 2: This shot will be for the title credits which show the producer and director of the film. The music will still be playing and the text will fade in and out.
Shot 3: This shot will show two characters talking before the event that the film is based around takes place. This will help to give the audience a better understanding of the background of the protagonist. The camera will do a shot reverse shot of a close up of the two characters and maybe a few over the shoulder shots mixed in.
Shot 4: This is another credits shot but this time it will show more institutional information rather than credits
Shot 5: These shots will be based after the event has happened. The main character will be looking for food and supplies and will be scavenging through houses and building. This sequence will have varied shot types that will include close up and extreme close up shots of the character as well as some of the props. Once again the music will be playing, but this shot will start a voice over monologue from the main character.
Shot 6: This shot will also show the character scavenging for supplies but this shot will focus on the character rather than the objects they are handling, Once again the music will be playing ad the monologue will continue
Shot 7: This shot will be the first encounter that the main character has with other survivors. The camera will swap between the characters focusing on their faces using shot reverse shot as well as over the shoulder shots. At this shot the monologue will subside and the diagetic sound will be the only audible sound apart from the music that is playing in the background.
Shot 8: This shot will be a plain black screen and the monologue will return for a few seconds, then the the next shot will be shown. The music starts to quieten down in this shot and fades to almost silent.
Shot 9: This will be a sequence of fight scenes that the main character has with other survivors. This sequence will be a series of fast cuts and the music will start again. The shot will mostly consist of close up shots and medium shots to help make the sequence faster.
Shot 10: This shot will be a follow on from the previous and will feature fast moving scenes with the music playing and some dialogue.
Shot 11: This shot will be a scene where the main character is meeting the other groups of survivors and the sequence will include some arguments with the other survivors and disputes between the main character and the other characters.
