Storyboards

The story boards for our short film contains 55 different shots over an estimated 4 minutes, from the seconds of each shot which we calculated.

What is key for these scenes is the split-screens, however, we have considered that if these don't work that we would either use quick cross cuts between the different shots, to achieve the same effect. we got inspiration for this solution from "Malcolm in the middle" in which quick cross cuts are used to a comedic effect. something to consider for that is a possibility sound effect, like a swipe whenever something like this takes place.

For this scene we are going to attempt to shoot the same actor on the same screen using a split-screen, merging the two shots together to give the illusion that they are on the same screen without the layering technology that funded films would typically have.

If this fails we have decided to use shot reverse shots to accomplish this illusion, but without using an over the shoulder shot due to the impracticality of getting someone with similar head shape.








In the following scenes we have implemented split-screens again in order to show the possible futures of Mark at the same time. The software on Imovie should be able to accomplish this for us and if not then there is always the possibility of using quick cross cuts to achieve this effect.

This final shot we decided to add at the end of the film after scripting to add more comedy. The shot reveals mark appearing to be working but then reveals that he is reading the nuts magazine again. It almost mimics most comedies in which a character makes a revelation but doesn't leave a lasting change in the character.

For the full effect we decided to put this scene at the end of the credits, taking influence from many Marvel Industries films, that have started to do this in recent history.
