THE GUIDE
part 10a: storyboard
Clean up the Narrative!
At this point, you have successfully created a story about your church, enhanced it through a sensorial exploration, and written an actual visual and audio narrative. Now it's time to refine your narrative.
Recruit someone on your team to clean up the narrative you've written. They will trim excess details that do not feed into the overall story.
Refine the story to embody the energy, pace, values, practice, demographic, location, and theology of your community. Make sure every artistic choice pertains to the Church's message.
Remember that you're not listing a series of facts, you're showing and telling a story. Less is always more to a web-surfer.
Time for a Storyboard
What is a storyboard? Technically, it is a sequence of drawings, typically with some directions and dialogue, representing the planned shots and lines for a movie or television production.
It will be a visual outline that will help you organize, clarify, and prepare for you video. Even if you only have two to three scenes , it is still helpful to write it out and to get a pre-visual draft of your work.
A storyboard will inform visual organization. If you are shooting in multiple locations or have different camera angles, it will help you organize your shot selection and production needs.
