Starting the Storyboard

               On Tuesday, my group started our storyboard. I am relieved that we started storyboarding this week so that we can film next week, and have a few weeks to edit. We are going to start filming on Monday March 11th and if we can't get all of the shots we need on Monday, we will finish filming on Tuesday, so that we can begin editing as soon as possible. We would not be able to film during Spring break because Kylie will be out of town so the sooner we can film, the better.   

                We are starting the short film with Amber eating at a restaurant alone to establish early on, that she is lonely. I suggested that we use Panera as our restaurant, so that is the establishing setting of our film. One of the most important shots that we will get in Panera, is a shot of Amber sitting alone quietly whilst being surrounded by people conversing with their friends, family, peers, etc.

               The rest of the shots will be filmed at Kylie's house. We decided to have Amber's mother leave her a voicemail basically saying that she is sad that Amber was not able to attend Amber's sisters' college tour with the family due to an obligation that she can not get out off. We will make it clear that Amber is lying and simply wants the house to herself, because she is the black sheep of the family and does not have a strong connection to them due to her own issues.
