This is the storyboard that we created as a rough idea of the shots we planned to incorporate into our film trailer. We plan to use a range of different shots to create an interesting and tension building trailer for our Thriller Film.
(Some of the locations shown within this storyboard are not accurate. This is due to the software used to create this storyboard having limited setting options.)
This storyboard is a rough idea of the shots we intend on capturing when filming for our film trailer. we chose to use a range of shots at different times within the trailer to show a range of shots which will help in creating tension within our trailer to fit in with the conventions of a thriller film. there are different reasons for why we chose specific shots to use within our trailer. For Example:
Split Screen Shot: we chose to use this technique within our trailer to identify the characters in one shot. rather than having the two girls within the same shot we felt that using two different shots and showing a split screen with them would be a good way to start of the trailer as well as being a good technique to identify the characters of our film.
Close Up Shots: We plan to use close up shots within out trailer on the main characters faces because we want to show emotion within the trailer. This will help in showing the story line of our film as well as building tension for the audience.
After completing the storyboard for our trailer we made some changes to the story line of our film. Because of this the storyboard was not accurate anymore. the parts that we planned on showing within the trailer were similar to those that were shown within this storyboard. A main change made was with the characters. Rather than having three characters within our trailer we cut down the three girls to two girls. One girls gets kidnapped and the other tries to find her.
Another change we made to this storyboard is that we plan not to have any Diegetic speech within our trailer. The only speech we would use would be the speech used within the voice over we plan to use within the trailer.


Looks fabulous. Make sure that you analyse some of the shots you have chosen and say why. One thing to consider - the dialogue needs to be loud enough to be clear. Make sure your deal with that when you are filming.
