Below is our first draft photographic storyboard for 'Flight'. By creating this rough storyboard we have gained a feel for the kind of production which we wanted to produce. Doing this exercise helped us envision the shots which would be included within our short film. This was particularly helpful in the scenes with the dance room mirrors, as we got to see where the camera would be positioned to avoid it being in shot.
Jack took the photos for the storyboard and below I put the photos together and turned them into an animatic, I also added annotations to the video explaining each shot.

We then showed a range of people to gather constructive criticism and opinions.
''After seeing your storyboard I am looking forward to seeing the final product. I'm really interested in your choice of music as I feel that having classical music all through and playing with the tempos/pitch and adding different sounds over the top will be really effective.''
- Alexander Cowan
''I really like that you are going to use animation within your production as I think this will put an interesting twist on the film and make your production more unique. However I think you should consider taking away the dialogue in the ballet scene as the dialogue seems very cliche. Also some of the shots seem a little obvious, such as the turning off the light switch, I don't think you need to show the audience that as they will understand without being shown.''
- Rachel Emery
''Looking at your first draft I really like the idea and the issue explored. Some of the shots (particularly the first one of the light and the corridor) are really effective and interesting. One thing I suggest though is developing the bedroom sequence as at the moment it seems very weak and unnecessary compared to the ballet and street scenes.''
