LO2: Following shooting script/storyboard

Storyboard scene 1 

Here I am demonstrating how I have followed my planning documents, above is both shots from the finished product next to the storyboard. In this opening scene I wanted to introduce the location of the documentary by having a visual of the cityscape that is recognisable to people who are familiar with Sheffield. 

As you can see this had been planned in the storyboard and the final product is very similar to the planning stage, by continuing to stick to the planning documents throughout shooting the film looks more professional and has more continuity throughout. 

The storyboard demonstrates this scene from a closer shot however when filming we did realise that shooting it further away allowed contrast between heights of buildings making the shot more aesthetic and visually interesting for the viewers.

Storyboard scene 11 

In scene 11 you can see the visual introduction of the shop 'The Bare Alternative', the introduction of the shop was a scene that had been planned to be the opening of the interview section of the documentary, by shooting the outside of the shop it allowed the location of the shop and the environment surrounding it to be showcased to the viewers.

As you can see the storyboard once again demonstrates this shot once again from a closer angle however after shooting a close angle we decided that the location itself wasn't displayed enough and we ended up shooting from a establishing shot rather than a wide shot that was planned in the storyboard.

Storyboard scene 12

Here demonstrates one of the shots filmed from the inside of The Bare Alternative, as you can tell the storyboard planning and actual shot are nearly identical, in the shot we decided to pan across the canisters due to the range of ingredients stocked in the shop, the range of colours and shapes in the containers really contrasted and created a great effect as hoped in the planning process.
By shooting this scene from a medium close up shot it allowed us to include the huge range of ingredients and compose the shot to include other features of the shop.
