Hai.Here I have posted the second shot from the script.Lighting forms the path for the man.Its to indicate the visual metaphor.Its a dutchtilt shot.I have used this shot to increase the suspense level.even now i have hidden the face of the man beneath the flap of his hat.to be precise,i could better say that the placement of the hat in frame hides his face.the camera angle supports it.Let me increase the suspense in the forth coming shots.And remember that this is a sample work for one of my friends script.
The man walks along the light.Naturally when we enter a room of dark,we would try to locate the inner with the available light.but here the light is directed through the door opening.Indeed the illumination is through the shape of the opening and the characterstic of the light is to travel in straight path as it can't bend.This direction of light in the shot helps us.but in what way?
Do you observe that that elements in the dark are hard to notice.yes,so our eye does not give importance in noticing the art direction in the dark.our eye concentrates only on bright areas,thus enables the audience to focus on the character where the audience do not have the chance of getting misinterpreted.If the unwanted things on frame gets noticed,the audience miss the journey with the plot.This may turn out to be a potential failure for the film,because the audience does not understand the story.
I don't say that they are not completely important,but the elements should be shown in subtle manner.on overall,they can add to the compostition(aesthetics) of the frame.can present you a visual treat to your eyes.

I will continue in the next post.

Storyboard - shot 5

In the previous post i explained that a prop. may get an importance linking 2 scenes at different sequence and may establish logic. On seeing the forthcoming scene ,the audience might feel wow or some undeciphered plot may come to be perceived well. So I have given this a close shot in order to show that it has got some importance in the narration and may come to unlock an important knot of the story. In the making the close shot of this key is shown in a lapse of time i.e,in few seconds and the shot cuts to next frame or scene.The shaky effect is to show the human nature as it is handled by human. This shaky camera frames is shown from the subject point of view.i.e, the character who is playing the rol

Storyboarding...An Unsung craft

                                                             official website view cinematics on  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGMc1YdNT_g Storyboard...As the name suggests,its putting the story in the form of visuals on paper or  computer drawing software before filming so that the film crew alone watch the movie without           ticket..Ha.Ha..It does not stop with that,the  main purpose of storyboarding is to pre visualize               the film to feed the idea to the film crew what is going to be shot and how it is going to be achieved.By doing so the whole team knows what they are  going to shoot.To make one final product(scene/film)the whole team works toward a particular goal having the same idea in mind,which eliminates the difference in opinion and confusion or mess on shoot.    The storyboard defines the type of shot,composition and movement of camera.This partly      gives the cinematographer/DOP how he/she is going to shoot,which dictates the equipm
