Animatic



This is the animatic to our opening sequence showing the type of shots and places we may like to shoot. This gives us a rough idea of what we hope to finish with at the end of the project although it may not be identical depending on what shots we can get while shooting; we may have some that are not in our animatic and not have some that are.

We have decided to use a variety of shots including panorama's, tracking shots, long shots, mid shots and although it has not been shown in our animatic we hope to also include close up shots. We want to use a wide range of shots to add interest to the sequence for our audience and also allow us to create different feelings in whats been shot. We want to use panorama's of Cambridge shot from a height above most rooftops to show the expanse of the city and give a sense of almost being lost while also being on top of the world shown using the height level. Mid and long shots allow us to include the environment with more detail than may be achieved with a panorama and tracking shot. The main use of the tracking shot is to show the expanse of the colleges in Cambridge along King's Parade including to a certain extent detail of the buildings and almost the kind of people that would be found there. The shots showing the evening or 'night life' will most probably be shot with less detail or stability than those during the day appearing more mixed up to the audience giving a sense of what is being seen through the main characters eyes although she is not shown in the opening sequence.

The places we aim to shoot should show contrast to each other and some should be shot both during the day and at night showing how areas change as the sun goes down. This will hopefully give an idea to the audience the contrast that can be found in and around Cambridge.

We have used upbeat music to give a happier feel to our animatic and give an idea of what we would like to use in our final sequence. The choice of this kind of music gives a light-hearted feel to what could possibly be seen as a not so happy sequence. This is because although the film shows two contrasting sides of Cambridge one appearing to be happier than the other both are equally appealing to different people.
