The Jelly Baby Challenge- Ghost Film Opening Storyboard

As a group, we decided to choose the Ghost Story for our jelly baby film opening storyboard. We chose this because after researching horror films, we believed that we all had sufficient knowledge of this genre that would allow us to make a successful storyboard. We used 5 shots to get our idea across. If we were to actually make our plot into a video, we would use camera shots such as close ups, whip pan and handheld shots within our scenes.

Plot

4 friends (the jelly babies) go camping in a field by some woods. In the night, one of the characters hears a noise and goes to investigate, only to be murdered by an evil ghost spirit. This is the opening of the film, and would later lead into a more developed plot where similar events happen to other people.

I think that we planned our task well and put a lot of effort into props and scenery of our jelly baby film opening. Our group worked well together and there were no disagreements. We all contributed to the planning and production of our film opening storyboard, and I think that making backgrounds for our film really made it stand out.

I think that our film would have been better if we kept more within the guidelines of a PG film, as we were supposed to. I also think that we took too long to create our shots, and that they were inconsistent (the surface is different in the last photo).

The end of our opening scene allows room for the story to continue and develop as the evil ghost is still on the loose, and nobody knows that it exists
