Task 1 - A significant moment in my life
Here is the mood board I used to show my story, I haven't applied any specific style like you can see in the mood boards samples above.
Script Writing/ Screenplay Writing Trial (PG 3)
Key things I have noticed about screenplays.
- EXT. (Means exterior) INT.(Interior) - Inside or outside
- Next to EXT. "Is written the name of the place where the scene is taking place"
- Next to the name of the place where the scene is taking place is written the time (Dusk, Evening, Night, Morning, etc.)
- The description of an action or place is aligned with EXT.
- Character's name is placed right before dialogue, in the middle of the screenplay's page.
Task 3 - A Ghost girl story
For the characters > The daughter could be a teenager around 16 years old and the young girl, hitch-hiking, could be around maybe 9 or 10 years old.
(the reason why the age difference is so big between the two girls is because in real life, girls the same age are more likely to interact with each other, befriend each other very easily, but since in the story it sows that there is no interaction between the two girls, we thought it would make sense to make one way older than the other.)
My moodboard for the script
I always pictured the Ghost girl loves red, Environment:
wearing a flannelled but this time around Bumpy road, scary
top with a piercing on she was wearing a red dark trees, dark grey sky,
her face. scarf on a grey dress dark clouds.

Task 4- Swapping screenplays with another group > Storyboarding
Just looking at different storyboards
The 2nd storyboard is a black and white one, few arrows used as well. The background is a water colour one, the main focus was on the character, so it seems. Not much movement indications, the text below each frame does the talking.

Task 4- Swapping screenplays with another group > Storyboarding PG 3
I don't like the way the movements are indicated on theses
storyboards, because it's difficult to make the difference
between a character's movement and a camera movement.
Every movement (Both character and camera)
is indicated by arrows with informations
My own storyboard Practice > Just a draft
>Mixing and applying my favourite style to it.
Apparently some of my frames had too many arrows indicating too many movements, (Frame 2> the bag moving up and down on the ground, the guy running at the back and the bag's handle swinging).

My own storyboard draft for the swapped screenplay - PG 1
Now I will try to apply that style to my own storyboard for the swapped script, then using my ideas and the groups' ideas, we will finalize it.
My own storyboard draft for the swapped screenplay - PG 2
-This is not the final storyboard
- This is just like a draft or more like some experimentation on colours and drawings styles.
- This is what I intend to present to my group, in order to combine our different ideas and come up with a final storyboard.
- I personally like the style though I think the colours might be too bright, too rich. And also on one of the frames, the father's head is too big for the body, this needs fixing.
- another mistake I need to rectify for the final storyboard, is the position of the driver's seat, instead of being on right on the first page of the storyboard, it should be on the right like on the left (Like instructed on the script).
