Story Boarding & Film Making

Posted by janellep on April 15, 2009

Our class just watched a video titled Film School for Video Podcasts made by Matthew Needleman. He had many tips related to story boarding and film making.

An important thing i learned was the rule of thirds which is to not film somebody directly in the middle of your shot. you should have them a little to the left or the right of your screen.

We also learned about story boarding which is where you draw a visual image of each shot you want in your film. If you want somebody to move you draw their starting point, and draw an arrow of where you want them to go.
