Changes to our storyboard

Our storyboard had to go through a number of changes during the production of our film. The main problem we had to overcome, in regard to the storyboard, was that we didn't find a location that allowed us to film Fleur having a nose bleed into the sink and then walk out of her house onto the beach. In response to this problem we decided to get rid of her walking out of the house and just use a fade to black to show that she walked towards the beach. This idea then changed again after our first screening so in the final opening the nosebleed scene is part of the montage. 

We also decided to keep the beach scenes as we believed that these were key in highlighting her reflective nature. In addition to this the beach shots would add to the stylistic cinematography of the film. The beach scenes stayed at the end of the film as they were planned to in our story board but weren't attached to the nosebleed scene at all we achieved this by putting the beach completely at the end of the montage (we only decided this was the best option after our first screening).



The final shot from the storyboard has also changed this is because on the day we couldn't get the desired shot with the technologies we had; not having a tripod that would give us a shot high enough for it to look effective. In addition to this we couldn't get the right angle of the shot without casting a shadow on our actress.
