ANIMATIC STORYBOARD FEEDBACK Through the animatic storyboard feedback we hope to find ways to improve our actual AS Media

Coursework opening titles. These improvements will mainly involve the way titles are integrated and the timing of them, if the genre was conveyed efficiently and the way the coursework will be filmed. 1) Did the genre of the coursework come across in the animatic storyboard? Yes No Why: 2) Were the titles integrated well? Yes No Why: 3) Was the main storyline portrayed well? Yes No Why: 4) Was there a sufficient range of shot types? Yes No Why: 5) Was it made clear that the main character suffered from OCD? Yes No Why: 6) Any other suggestions to improve:

Animatic Storyboard Feedback - Results

Yes Question 1 0 No |||| Why - Sound was not incorporated in the animatic and therefore the genre was not conveyed through this. - It was not made clear that a murder was going to happen, a thriller genre not conveyed - There was no dark lighting to suggest a thriller. - They were integrated well but they need to be more regular as there were only a few titles shown in the animatic. - They were discretely integrated into the props. - Integrated into the surroundings well. - There needs to be more titles shown.

Question 6

- The storyline was not given away at all in the opening scene (animatic). There shouldnt be a lot shown in this scene but there needs to be more to hint at a thriller and that a murder is soon to happen. - Nothing happened in the animatic storyboard to convey any of the storyline. - Only the preparation of the dinner was shown. - There were too many close ups and extreme close ups especially as it is only a short sequence. - They ranged from long shots to extreme close ups. - A lot of different camera shot types and angles were shown in the animatic storyboard. - Yes, however the washing of the hands could be shown more regular to emphasise what he is doing to draw the viewers attention on this action. - No, washing hands is an obvious action carried out when preparing and cooking dinner so the action carried out does not necessarily make the viewer think he suffers from OCD. - No, only washed his hands once so does not stress what and why he is actually doing. - The genre and plot could be conveyed more if there was more of an emphasis on the knife that is shown in the animatic storyboard. - The genre and OCD needs to be defined in our coursework, as it is not clear at the moment. - Genre needs to be shown. - The drawings were clear however; the lighting and sound now need to be incorporated.
