Story boarding - Shots 10-20

My story board is well under way now. It's a very time consuming process but it's a vital part of creating a quality film. These shots are still, like the previous 9, set in the coffee shop location. They depict the male character looking round the cafe, at the woman and beginning to make assumptions about her leading on to the daydream.

They start with him bringing his book in front of his face and sneakily scanning the room from behind it. As this happens his inner monologue will appear as a non diegetic voice over, he will say something along the lines of "Just a quick scan of the room to see who's abo-hello. Who's that? I haven't seen her before." (although the script isn't written yet this is roughly what he will say).

Hiding behind his book he notices her hair (in a point of view shot) and comments that she is pretty, followed by her clothes and he comments she is stylish. He then see's her book, it's the same one he is reading, he takes this as a sign that they are meant to be together. The film cuts to a long shot of the female character, the guy comments how she is perfect for him. This prompts the daydream segment of the film.


He is behind his book...

... and hides when he thinks she is looking at him. 


The next part of my short film to storyboard is the daydream segment.
