Explanation
It has been a while since we talked about the story board, so we decided to revisit it and update it based on what we have now (this might NOT be the last update). So you may be wondering why we decided to change things, well I mentioned in the "Unexpected Challenges" blog that we made adjustments to the script and storyline in order to suit what we could actually do while filming. I am now going to explain those changes as we did not know at the time of planning the initial story board how things were going to play out, but now after filming, we do.
As you can see from the first frame, we did NOT change anything except for adding more details. However, from the second onwards, there is a drastic change. Not in terms of story but in terms of the framing, scenery, and positioning. These adjustments ARE reflected in the story board, and the reason for the changes is simply while filming we figured it would be better to do it in a living room/sitting room location rather than a bedroom as bedrooms are rather personal and harder to film due to space issues.
Furthermore, there are changes in how things play out visually such as in the 5th and 6th frames rather than having a separate shot for Ivy texting and then a close-up of what is happening plus a split frame of the reactions. We chose to replace it with a split frame of the over-the-shoulder shot and the phone screen while the reaction would still happen but just through text in the next frame. While the story and the effect of the initial scenes are still there, it was just more convenient for us to film and edit it this way to make sure there is NO confusion about what is going on.
Overall, these are just some of the minor adjustments we have made, but ALL the reasons behind them are practically the same whether it was just easier to film/edit the scene this way or made more sense for events to progress this way. In the end, this reflects our current product far more than the initial story board we had from BEFORE we filmed!
