STORYBOARD shots 1,2,3,4
The shots presented here are the first 4 shots we drew out, deciding to start our film with Drew, the main protagonist walking towards the camera in a dark alleyway. As you can see, the first shot shows Drew walking toward the camera from a distance, in the centre of the screen, surrounded on either side by fencing, closing him off from the rest of the world and making the whole scene look more atmospheric in the sense of having nowhere to run. The scene was to start after the opening sequence, starting just as the last image faded and the film title appeared.
The seconds shot below shows the scene where the protagonist meets the drunken character, the 'villain', if you will, of the story. The scene here was showing the first encounter, the appearance of the drunkard, with the audience noticing him before Drew has. As he comes closer to the camera with the shot, you see more of the character, being able to see his appearance. The audience can easily see that the man is drunk and possibly homeless, straight away setting off alarm signals that he is trouble.

The third shot displayed above shows a mid length shot of the drunken man coming up closer to Drew, our main character. The mid shot provides the audience with a much more closer representation of what the man looks like, his clothing and general appearance. The beanie hat and the jacket he is wearing are notably old and worn out, giving more of the impression that this man has had it rough recently and is most likely unemployed. As he carried on moving closer to the camera, his facial hair and stance is more noticeable. The idea here was to show just how threatening the man looks and how intimidating he is to Drew. To say the least, he has imminence power over the weaker main character. As the next shot progresses to an over the shoulder shot of the drunken man, now we can see Drew's reaction to the new character. His shoulders are meant to be tense and rigid, suggesting discomfort and fear brought on by the intimidating drunkard.
The over the shoulder shot once again provides the audience with a more clear picture of the character, showing more detail; their facial expressions and body language/posture. By now the audience should be able to tell that the man Drew has just came across is very drunk and is about to cause some sort of issue.
