Scaling API-first – The story of a global engineering organization
Story board Evaluation
1.
2. Well, a storyboard is a graphical
representation of the camera
shots you would use in your film
sequence that are then put
together and then connected to
make a ‘narrative flow’.
3.
4. The reason why we do this is to
give the director, cameraman,
lighting experts etc. an idea on
how the film will look before
budgets are summed up and
producers start producing.
5. The creation of this storyboard
has really helped me understand
on how certain shot types and
lighting techniques would work in
specific environments as well
visualizing what shots would and
wouldn’t work.
6. Within our storyboard we then
started to construct costume
ideas. We came to the conclusion
that the band member would wear
surgeon outfits. This being rather
alternative and ‘indie’ which
relates to the our band image.
8. I feel that the creating of our
storyboard has really helped us
visualize what our video will look
like and it helped us change ideas
within our video making our ideas
more realistic.
9. I feel putting annotations on our
storyboard was vital as it gives a
viewer/reader that extra bit of
information that can’t be
described within the picture that
has been drawn.
10. Annotations therefore leads into
technical notes which again are
vital as a set director, the
individual setting up the set for
your video, can therefore relate to
these notes and can then prepare
for the video.
11. I feel that the best part of the
process of storyboarding was
getting the timings of each shots
exactly in time to our selected
song which made the finishing it
much easier.
12. I feel that our time management
as a group was pretty poor when
attempting to complete it but also
our skill within drawing. Although
drawing isn’t a paramount aspect
within storyboarding our standard
of drawing made it a lot harder.
13. When our storyboards were
finished we as a group decided to
create an animatic, a digital video
of our storyboard cut together with
the music to see if our ideas work
or not.
14. Overall, I feel the animatic was
very successful as they shots we
would use look very good
together and feel this was a great
exercise to do as it has really
prepared us for the creation of our
video.
