The difference between shot list from orginal to adjusted is very significant. After a revision of ideas, we came to the conclusion that we would need to include more narrative, otherwise performance elements could become boring. We also took out all establishing shots as we though they were unneccessary. Other parts of our original shot list were un realistic, the dolly of joanna walking down the road didn't work due to alot of traffic and no dolly method that would result in a stable image throughout. We over came this by filming Joanna on the beach and using the zoom function on the video camera.
Deviations between original storyboard and final storyboard
This original storyboard (on left) shows Joanna coming into contact with the Boy (James) and aggresively defending herself. After futher thoughts we thought the video would be more effective if Joanna didn't confront him, instead keep her distance, to show that she can't confront him and just imagines everything to be perfect. So instead we used the idea of a cafe scene, with her sitting next to the booth the boy and girl were in, showing the boy never notices her which links with the lyrics.
We completely changed the ending to the video. Originally we were going to use the paper lanterns however after experimenting (shown in earlier post) we found that we would have to have perfect weather conditions for it to be successful. With time running out to film we couldn't be fussy with the days we filmed. Therefore I thought it would be better to have Joanna walking on the beach with the boy (as her imagination) and then using an effect to fade this scene out and merge it into just her walking off into the distance.
Disparity between storyboard and final cut
We couldn't film on the pier as it was crowded so had to think of another scene where Joanna would be following the couple. We used the idea we had previously to fit in here, (Joanna destroying the names that James wrote on the beach.)
Whist editing we found the shots became boring because they all lasted for over 4 seconds. We therefore inserted quick shots of previous scenes near the end (lasting less than 2 seconds) which changed the order of shots in the last third.
