Short Film Production

The use of planning - story boarding and scripting aided our groups short film because it provided a plan of the end product. This could be referred to during production of the short film, with the scenes already planned, the production was more time efficient as everybody knew what needed to be done. The script also contained enough technical data that the director was able to create the visual picture that had been planned. The organization of the story boarding allowed progress to be easily checked and scenes could be added or discarded.
