Storyboard

Now we have our idea firmly in our mind and have the audience feedback to gauge what they are looking for, we have begun storyboarding the trailer. Obviously, a trailer shows all of the best shots in the film in order to lure the audience in, so we need to think carefully about what we want every shot to convey to give a fair picture of the film.

Based on our audience feedback, we amended the tone of the film somewhat. Comedy was cited as the most popular for boys and girls alike, so we have added several amsuing elements to the storyboard- slapstick comedy and sarcastic dialogue. The premise is exactly the same, but instead of our main characters being savvy and streetwise, they are socially inept and hapless, which is the main source of comedy. We intend to play up the angle of them being misfits and being the wrong people to be caught up in such a situation.

We like the genre of 'dramedy' for this genre, as British films tend to be incredibly serious and gritty. The light hearted feel of the film will hopefully encourage people in our traget audience to see it becauyse it features the things those surveyed said they wanted in a film.
