Students to work and stay in the room.
You need to complete your storyboards this morning. Remember they must include full references to camera angles, edits, dialogue, music, cameramovement. Once completed produce a shooting schedule detailing where you are going to shoot, when, equipment needed, people needed etc. and log this back to your shots so you know how long this process is going to take. The planning is what will make your production great so don't neglect this process! I would like to see all your storyboards before next Wednesday's lesson to approve them as you need to booking equipment out to begin filming. You cannot do this until you have pitched your ideas to me and had feedback.

Using the storyboards students are to continue planning their productions. For both groups I will be expecting to see a finalised storyboard sequence for the whole 2 minutes of the trailer (including title sequences etc) in the next lesson. Remember storyboards must include camera movement, edits, timing of shots, mise-en-scene, dialogue, sound effects etc.
