“Black-Eyed” Production Notes Post #1

September 18th, 2006

Production notes for MA613 Foundations of Image and Sound Production, Project #1: “Sequence of Digital Stills”:

After a failed start on Saturday afternoon with my “food project“, I decided to switch gears and go for a more “traditional” approach. Meaning a two character narrative with an introduction, conflict, and resolution. A Classical Hollywood approach but with a bummer ending.

So, I needed two recognizable faces for the story brewing. Who better than my a-list actors . . .

I storyboarded my project on Saturday evening. Here’s the second draft:

I don’t want to give anything away, so I’ll wait to tell you the story.

In terms of process: I was quite pleased with how much the storyboard helped me with the photoshoot. I decided that the location for the shoot would be a nearby public park. It’s very nice there and thought it would provide a nice backdrop for the story.

My second post will include a more critical analysis of my process today during the shoot. I have to start putting the photos together now. So, I’ll save more for later.
