On the initial storyboard, i chose to base it off the final draft shot list. Of course this was a difficult task because you can't show a moving camera on a normal sheet of paper. With this information, i had to improvise, and try and present the scenes in such an order and fashion that it chronologically made sense. This is to be considered as to what we initially wanted to film. After feedback, we decided that we needed more scenes within our film opening. All of the missing scenes from the draft storyboard will be featured on the photographic storyboard, as that will be easier to present, and will also add colour, and more chronological order to the storyboard.
