Planning meeting #8

Today we continued story-boarding and planning out the succession of our 1940s & 1950s scenes. We began drawing out all of our previous notes and manually story-boarding our planned shots and mes en scene from the other decades as well, in order to prepare for creating an accompanying animatic sequence. We sketched each shot onto post it notes, which meant that we could re-organize the angels & shot distances if needed, allowing a flexible structure in relation to both filming & the animatic - meaning we had the opportunity to alter decisions on set if creatively necessary. We then researched into suitable costumes  choices which we could perhaps purchase (for a small amount) from eBay or loan from a charity shot for a more authentic wardrobe. We felt that even though the acting style at times was hyperbolic and dramatized, that we still wanted to create a parallel to the past & display the extent of our research & detailed sourcing through our video.
