storyboard
The task given was to create a 30-35 shot storyboard for our trailer 'Unspoken'. This storyboard focuses on the main structure for our trailer before we go and actually shoot it. With the addition of camera angles and a specific timeline for the duration of those shots helps us precisely figure out how our trailer will be.

Storyboard Draft ideas
the story boards located down below are the draft stages of the final story board as we tired different avenues for our teaser trailers to look as realistic as possible.

Animatic
The animatic for our trailer was created by Final Cut Pro and involved the storyboard shots being placed in a video format with a backing track involved and other sound effects. With the storyboard made into a animatic We see how the actual trailer would pan out, plus the use of text slides enables us to view them as they would be in our full trailer.
Animatic with no sound
The animatic has been produced by using different softwares to help me create a video. The various different applications such as final cut pro and youtube have all benefited me in creating this video as they allow me to visually develop and edit my storyboard into the form of a video. Next would involve the sound design team to create a soundtrack for the video allowing our audience to view the trailer as it would be with a complete storyboard and soundtrack.
animatic with sound
The animatic with sound was also created with the same software, but this time there was an addition of logic pro being used to help create the sound track and final cut pro used to join the two together.
applications that were used:
horror film inspirations
the use of these films have allowed me to collectively take information about the key aspects of a slasher sub genre film and portray it into my own storyboard and animatic as it allowed my idea of a horror film to become more identical.
