Animatic Storyboard and Action Plan







Action Plan:
 
When filming my opening sequence, I need to consider an 'action plan'. Action planning is a process which will help you to focus your ideas and to decide what steps you need to take to achieve particular goals that you may have. The 'judging criteria' of this opening sequence is carried out by the moderator. The judging criteria is listed as followed:
 
  • Draws audience in/engaging storyline   X                                    
  • Variety of camera shots        X
  • Use of conventions (genre)       X
  • Continuity in editing        X
  • Mise-en-scene: Attention to/care     X
  • Use of sound. Is it effective?        X
  • Material appropriate for the target audience and task.
  • Using titles appropriately according to institutional conventions.     X
 
X - Used in the images/annotations above.
 
 
As shown above, almost all of the criteria meets the images and annotations in the video. I haven't included the material appropriate for the task and also the target audience. Because of this, I need to make an action plan. Preparing an action plan is a good way to help myself to reach my filming objectives. A 'romantic drama' and a '12 Film' can contain:
 
  • Mature themes
  • An engaging storyline relating to the idea of 'romance'.
  • Music, which matches the age range, such as orchestral music.
  • Scenes which can emotionally hit the audience.
  • Should contain features of which a 12 year old would be recommended to watch e.g. moderate strong language and sexual references.
 
 
 
The features should relate to the plot and genre of the film. I will construct that feature to it's extent, so when it is finished and released to the public, they can identify this efficiently.
