How the use of planning (storyboarding and scripting)
aided our short film

Storyboarding
The purposes a storyboard is to create a series of drawings of the film as how you think it will appear on the screen. This plays and important part in the film production as it is a plan of the end product and can referred to during production.

It is important that every scene in your film is planned carefully so everybody knows what has to be done and no time is wasted during production.

Scripting
The script is one of the most important parts in film production. “The script is the vehicle by which the thoughts and ideas of the author are transmitted to the audience” (PIO 1, 2010, pg. 4). The main things that are good script should include are:’

• Moods and expressions
• Facial expressions
• Vocal expressions
• Movement
• Interaction with other characters
• Special effects
• Sound track instructions
• Lighting
• Camera Angles and types of shot
• Background sound and setting
• On screen graphics and titles

For the director to create the visual and audio picture he wants, the script should include enough technical information to make this happen
