Storyboarding has begun!

We finally began the storyboarding process. With our principal shoot rapidly approaching next Saturday, we are going to use the week to gather any necessary materials so we are ready to film on schedule. Due to this, we have to complete the storyboard by Friday at the latest so we have time to revise it and compare it with the script. What you see below is the storyboard right up until the climax. I will be using the weekend to work ahead and storyboard up until right before the resolution.

Taylor and I have never written a full length short film with dialogue from beginning to end so we were kind of lost on how to start the script, after all, writing is one of the most difficult part of the process. What we figured to do was start storyboarding so we would have a general idea of what In the Back of Beyond would look like and go from there. We knew that once we had a visualization that we would be able to start writing the dialogue.

Of course, we will be adding A LOT more to this storyboard, since it is only the foundation, and be inserting different shots here and there. Now that we have a visualization we are going to begin the script, write the dialogue, and finish the storyboard next week.
