Times Up Planning: Storyboards and Assigning Roles

One of the first and most important parts of planning our trailer was to assign the roles that each of us were to carry out for the remainder of the project. This would make the planning much more simple, as each of us knew exactly what jobs we had to undertake, as well as what responsibilities we had. We devised 8 roles, so that each member of the group could have an equal amount of responsibilities. The roles that each of us were assigned were:

Director: Rhiannon
Producer: Tom
Editing: Rachel
Camerawork: Elizabeth
Storyboard: Rhiannon
Music: Tom
Costume: Rachel
Script: Elizabeth

Although these roles are assigned, all of the team has a say in every aspect of creating the trailer.For example, even though Rhiannon's job was to storyboard the trailer, we all had an input and gave ideas as to what should be included, Rhiannon simply put the ideas together.

Here are our first drafts of the storyboards:
 

We then created a full, more detailed storyboard:

We will use these when it comes to filming and editing our trailer, as it enables us to envision exactly what we wish it to look like. This gives us a simple framework, to which we can then add effects and more clips if they are needed.
