Story boards for short film for Marissa's Lesson. Faye Jackson, 23/11/15

In this lesson Me, Emma and Eden got together and thrown more ideas at each other about what we could do for our short film as we hadn't yet decided. We also found out that we will not be having Drew in our group so we had to also think around that. We all suggested ideas and we eventually got an idea in our heads to base our secret short film on transgender,to try give of a message that being different is ok. It took us around 20 minutes but when we decided what we was doing we all stuck to the idea and we got into it and even knew what our scenes where going to be like and what types of shots we could use.
We came up with the idea of Emma and myself walking out of college together and just for this scene we would be using 3 different angles of shot. The third angle would then include me leaving Emma and then it would then go up to a close up of Emma's facial expressions watching me walk off. The scene would then see Emma back into a wide shot and then would have Emma walking back into the college and then walking through a set of doors that would open into a toilet. In the toilet,Emma would come across a bag with boy ish clothing inside and then the shot would be capturing her looking into the mirror as a girl and then she would put her head down as in to wash her make up away and we would use a movement shot that would move downwards as she does to wash her face and then as the camera comes back up it would show Emma's reflection to be a male. Before this mirror scene it would cross edit into me walking back into college as I would have forgot my bag and then back to Emma where the mirror scene would start. After the mirror scene it would go back to me getting even closer to where Emma is. It would then cross back to Emma about to leave the toilets and would then cross back to me walking right near the door as we shoot Emma opening the door. The scenes would then clash and I would then find out Emma is a transgender and I would look shocked but then smile and the camera angle would then be shot from behind me and seeing Emma smile and we was then thinking of inputting a voice over saying 'Its ok to be different' to leave the short film ending in a positive way and leaving the short film closed and not opened so that the audience are wanting to know more information.
We had fully planned it out amongst us and we all feel very confident with our idea and we think it is going to work out amazing!
We decided on what props we would need and who Is responsible for it. We need a hoodie which is being brought in by me or Emma, A hat that is going to be borrowed of Ben.
Make up which is going to be brought in by either Emma or Eden maybe. Eden will be bringing in her SD Card. I think that's all we would need and ourself's in the group as it wouldn't work.
We filled out a production schedule and assigned each other jobs in the group. We are going to be doing a location REECE next week and I will need to take images of our locations during the week.
We planned out our scenes and made a story board of our scenes on the storyboard it website.
