Walking Through a Scene

Here we are at an early stage in our planning and we are walking through some early ideas for our opening two minutes. We hoped that by getting up and blocking the scene we would have an idea of whether we were on the right lines or not. We all find storyboarding challenging as it is new to us and we are often corrected for not breaking down the shots enough - for example, we tend to draw a picture of someone getting out of a chair and not two pictures showing a match on action of this action, even though we know that we will be filming it from different angles. Walking through sections makes us think more closely abot exactly where the camera will be and how many separate shots we need to create one smooth action / sequence.
