Photo Storyboard

Camerawork: Photo Storyboard


Your photo storyboard needs to include the following ten shots and angles:

Camera shots recap:
  • Wide shot / establishing shot (WS/ES)
  • Long shot (LS)
  • Medium shot (MS)
  • Medium close up (MCU)
  • Over-the-shoulder shot (OTS)
  • Close up (CU)
  • Big close up / Extreme close up (BCU/XCU)

Camera angle:
  • High angle: makes subject look small and weak.
  • Low angle: makes subject look big and powerful.
  • Unusual perspective: can be used to surprise the audience or show danger (e.g. looking down off a cliff)

To get an example of what your photo storyboard should look like, have a look at this example from last year or this one - both very good.

Remember - you need to include all ten shots/angles and write ananalysis to go with each shot to explain what it communicates to the audience.

Finish this for homework if you don't complete it in the lesson - due for your double lesson next week.

Good luck!
