The final number of shots that I used in the storyboard was 33 which seems a short amount for a two minute opening sequence but I decided to elongate certain shots to add to the film style that I was going for. To hopefully draw an audience and then surprise them with something. This is most noticeable in the 7 second long shot of someone running through a wooded forest, from a Point of View shot it allows the use of a long length of shot and to then shorten shots afterwards to get the contrast.
Scripting: Day 2, further developed my ideas for the storyboard, however it also involved me editing shots 3 and 4 on the storyboard. Originally the idea was to see the women packing, however still opening with the shot of a radio and static coming from the radio I then cut to a wide shot of the bedroom to give a sense of location in the opening sequence. However it also creates an enigma code for it makes the audience question why there is a room in darkness and a radio with static.
The introduction of the two extra characters of 'Rob' and 'Christian' allowed me to take the story into the wood but it doesn't explain what they are running from, which is what I wanted to achieve.
My final shot of the entire opening sequence was going to be one of just the directors name (as pictured below).
