Following shooting scripts/ storyboards

Below is evidence of the final shoot for our short film, The White Room, matching a piece os planning that we produced in pre-production before the film. It matches some parts of the storyboard. The storyboard shows Aaron following Christopher and grabbing him at the end. This is also shown in the film screenshot below and is evidence that our shooting matched the storyboard. I thought that a cut to black before the kidnapping really got started would leave the audience interested and wanting more as they would want to know what has happened to Christopher. I thought suspense would be a good technique to use for a crime thriller as it makes the audience feel nervous and excited which is what we would want our film to make them feel.

Although the storyboard was made before the films production and sometimes people don't stick to it, our group has stuck to it well and our final film shows it multiple times.

Below is another example. Although every shot doesn't match, a lot of them are used in our film. These include a close up of Matt (Aaron) opening the door to leave his house. and a shot of each character tying their shoes. Although the shot of Matt (Aaron) getting the balaclava out of his draw is slightly different, as is the shot of Aaron coming his hair, it still takes inspiration from the storyboard, as do most of the shots we used in the first section of the film. The shot of Aaron combing his hair actually features Joe (Christopher) in the final film. The shot of Joe (Chistopher) putting on his shoes starts blurred and out of focus and then fades in to focus. Although this is nto mentioned in the storyboard, it was added for effect but still tooka lot of insperation from the storyboard.
