STORYBOARD

The first shot will be a montage of the group of youths walking into the woods, we decided to use this establishing shot at the beginning to set the scene and genre. It will last aroun 3-5 seconds with a fade into the tagline of 'psychosis'. The camerashot used will stay as a long shot with no technicalities of angles.

The tagline faded in from the first shot will be of the name of the film- 'psychosis'. The font colour will be white on a cloudy blackish background to represent confusion and the unclear reality. The font used is 'american typewriter' with a medium size and a high percent blurred. This will again reflect the theme of confusion. The tagline will last around 2-3 seconds.

The third shot will be the second establishing shot of the friends round the camp. This again will set the scene and introduce characters. It will last for around 3 seconds and will switch from close ups to long shots from different view points and angles. This will represent the view of the 'stalker' and with the fast change of shots it will introduce the theme oh thriller.

The next shot will show a pan across the view point from one of the youths. It will show a blurred vision with an outline of an unidentified image. The shot will be a medium shot lasting around one second so minimum information is given to the audience.

The next tagline will be a definition of what 'psychosis' means as it is not a common word known. This will have the same font, colour and background as the original title but in a smaller size as there is more information. The words will fade in and out of eachother instead of it being boring all placed on one slide.

The next shot will be a view point of 'Emily'. It will change from close ups to medium shots lasting about 0.5 seconds and using wonky camera angles to reinforce panic, confusion and the pace of her running.

The picture above shows the shot of where 'Emily' has to choose the team of friends. The camera will pan from group to group and in final cut express the filter colour will be changed each time she moves to enhance the hallucinations and unclear mind focus. The shot will last about 5 secons with a fade on the focus after each change of shot.

The next tagline follows the continuity rule being the same font, colour and background and saying the slogan for the film. It will last around 2-3 seconds and this time be more bold for a summary of the film for the audience.

The last shot will be a view point from Emily. With fast changing shots again more intense than the ones shown before showing the after affect of the situation. There will be one final shot of a close up of 'Emily' showing her reaction leaving her vision to the imagination for the audience. This allows it to give limited information to the audience. The final shot will be around 1 second for the 'teaser' affect.
