MOVING PICTURES (STORYBOARDING) THE SIXTH SENSE



The purpose of storyboarding is so that we can show the audience what shot we would like to show at certain points during our horror film and also what's in the shots (characters, background, etc.). Storyboarding is pretty much planning what shots we're going to use and what we're going to include in each shot throughout the film.

How can you show lighting/camera angles and camera movement in your storyboards?
If you plan to use some camera movement at a certain point then the best thing to do to show this in a storyboard is to draw it out image by image. For example if your starting point of the camera movement is where you're looking straight at the character then your next few images could be where we begin to see the side of the character. As for camera angles and lighting they're much simpler. For camera angles you just have to draw the image in the way you plan to shoot the image when filming. Finally for lighting you can just shade in certain parts of the images to show where you plan the light to come from.
