LB: Storyboard Shots

Storyboard Shots.


  • The first shot is from the Let Me In trailer, It is a long shot using a rule of thirds with the smoke in the centre of the background.
  • The scene is very dark and is very film noire like, the use of shadows and darkness ads to the tension of the scene.
  • The clip features the convention "Help Me" scene in a horror film.


  • The second storyboard is from Texas Chainsaw Massacre,  Its is positioned behind a stair post, as if we are looking through, a point of view long shot.
  • Similar to other horrors, it is very dark and the use of silhouettes sets the mood of the scene.

  • In the clip from Sinister it shows the juxtaposition of light and dark between the two shots.
  • The first clip is a vintage, bright  high saturated scene of a family having fun, the next dark, scary scene of the same family being hung.
  • The use of rule of thirds, positions the characters in the scene. The family have changed sides, the clip is filmed with a handi-cam to make It look like a private video tape.

  1. Excellent Liam - now start thinking about particular shots you would like to use to distinguish your film.
