Storyboard

For the storyboard, instead of taking boring images and explaining them I have created animated pictures with Pivot animator to fully show the scene and the camera movement, position, etc. Furthermore, below every '.gif'' I will be describing the scene by naming all the different shot types and camera movements.

My first and second title

- I have chosen this particular font and animation because of the type of effect it gave me while watching films such as American gangster. From this film, I was inspired to have similar fonts and animations.

My first shot

-For this shot, I plan to have a close up, almost behind the shoulder shot of the bosses main man talking to the boss as we see the snitch walk towards him. For this, I hope to give the audience the feeling of the tension building while the snitch is almost being set up. 

My second shot

- For the second shot, I hope to capture the chasing of the snitch by the bosses main man. This will be a long shot and will show the snitch being captured just before their is a cut. From this, I hope to show the audience that from this opening, they should realize that nobody is safe and how easily a snitch can be caught. 

My third shot

- This shot will show a long shot of the bosses main man, the snitch and I hope to introduce the second henchmen from the little glance that was shown of him in the previous scene. The camera here will be still, henchmen 1's gun will be declared to the audience and just before he kills the snitch for his crimes towards the family, he gets a call from the boss were he is told to keep the snitch alive and to send him to 'the usual spot' for a private meeting with the boss. By the impression's of the two henchmen's being afraid of the boss and the snitch even more, the audience here should get the impression of this boss being bigger than they thought. 

My fourth shot

- This shot will fade into the snitches face from the last scene and will zoom out of his face, while at the same time showing some of the environment and surroundings. The scene here will be darker and later than the other scene showing the audience that time has progressed and that they have waited for the boss. 

My fifth shot

- My next shot will follow on from the previous by straight cutting to a long shot, completely revealing the surroundings and environment they are in. This will also uncover the situation their in and the camera here will be kept still. The boss here will have his two personal henchmen and the second henchmen here is replaced with another gangster but the bosses main man (henchmen 1) will be kept as the same person and as the person that captured the snitch. 

My sixth shot

- This shot will then fade in from the previous shot, with the camera being from the snitches point of view and first person (POV shot). The camera here will not move. Henchmen 1 here will ask what to do with the snitch and the boss here will pass a gun while giving the indication that he wants to talk to the snitch before he is executed. 

My seventh shot 

- While in the same shot type (POV shot of the snitch), the boss here will come and give the snitch a talk. 

My final shot

- The shot type will again stay the same and the snitch will be picked up by henchmen 1, and executed on the spot with a gun. 

My final and main title

- As the shot goes off, the shot will immediately cut to the main title "SOLO Business." The font here will be big and simple. This is because, after much research I had found that simple big fonts with caps were the most conventional for this genre. Example include: American gangster, The Godfather Part 1/2/3
