Storyboarding (finally)

 Hi Blogger! Although I have been slightly holding this off, it is time to make a storyboard in order to outline and make a plan of how I want to approach the production itself of my portfolio project. Even though I had showed a draft on an outline of the structure of the excerpt, it was very brief and I need to make a shot by shot of my episodic documentary to be more secure/prepared for when I start to film. 

Now that I am planning on making my excerpt begin towards the end, I have a feeling that I will have a better understanding of how I want to structure the order of what I am implementing. I ultimately decided to come to this decision that way I can focus more on the resolution and positive affirmations within insecurities rather than being negative, having self doubt, and sulking about something that makes you upset. 

I always wanted to incorporate lights to show representation of the mood. For instance, I have a vision to use a colored light, either blue or purple, to show the innocence that people with these insecurities have with a playful mood to also adhere to the target audience. Another incorporation that I included within my storyboard is having the interview shots start at a medium shot and end in a close up in order to gain more engagement and become more comfortable as the excerpt progresses. 

Above is my storyboard draft and a good idea of what I will be producing within my portfolio project. I am pretty set on this idea and am super excited to make it come to life. Although I am slightly stuck shifting between interview shots, B-roll, and the getting "un-ready" portion, I am attempting to create a structure that will flow, not be too rushed, and that will keep my young target audience engaged within my project. Even though I still have a way to go, I am satisfied with my progression throughout this production. Until next time!
