Pre Production (Storyboard)

Pre production is the most important step towards creating a sustainable film. It is the process of planning or designing elements of a film prior to its production. This means coming to a unanimous decision on what the film should be named, what the theme of the film should be, and the elements we can use to support the genre being developed.

The name of our film is "Caught Up". The film revolves around the main character Spence who is given an assignment to take care of a bag that was later found out to be wanted by the boss of the antagonist Berry Doncic. Berry catches Spence, knocks him out, and takes the bag and now Spence even though not knowing what is in the bag wants revenge and to get the bag back. To plan out how we would organize the opening scene of this type of film, my teammates and I created a storyboard. For each shot on our storyboard, it shows a depiction of what the scene will look like, a description of it, the camerawork used, and description of sound in the shot. Camerawork includes the shot size, framing, angle, movement, composition, and lighting in the shot we planned to create. The description of sound includes dialogue, sound effects, and music that will be used in the shot. This is all depicted below.
