Digital Story Board

Joe Haddow - Director


Shot 1: ELS of street outside protagonist's house. Establishing shot of location allows the audience an insight to where the characters preside and what environment they are part of. The darkness indicates the time (early hours of the morning) which sets the scene. The un-focused style of the shot gives a 'sleepy' feel to the scene.


Shot 2: High angle shot of parents bedroom. The camera tracks through the room into the hallway where a source of light is indicated. It tracks slowly to create suspense and build up to the introduction of the the first character.


Shot 3: High angle shot of a shadow being projected onto the hallway floor. The shadow is the centre piece of the shot grabbing the viewer's attention. The camera continues to track along the floor as it slowly tilts up.


Shot 4: Camera begins to tilt upwards and the lower half of a figure is revealed. The shadow adds depth to the frame and allows the viewer to distinguish the character to an extent. Builds tension.


Shot 5: Camera continues to tilt and more of the character is revealed. The low angle shot suggests that the character is powerful. This accompanied with the dark, tense music adds to the comedic element of the scene. Which becomes clear when the character is fully revealed.



Shot 6: Over the shoulder shot establishing a new location (the characters bedroom). A second character is introduced (Reece) who is playing video games in a rather obsessive manor. The camera follows Georgie in and then cuts to Reece's perspective.



Shot 7: MLS of both the characters playing the game. They are completely focused on the TV and have such energy. This despite the time, They are really enthusiastic about winning. This however alerts the parents that they are awake when they shouldn't be. Georgie's dad then proceeds to shout through the wall at them. The camera cuts to the clock to show the audience the time. and Then the boys to show their reaction.


Shot 8: The boys clamber into bed and collapse (sleep).


Shot 9: Close up of the alarm going off on a phone. This wakes both of the characters, and they panic as they are late for School. This is the beginning of a short montage of clips that takes the viewer through the process of the characters getting ready. The pace of the editing will grab the audiences attention.


Shot 10, 11, 12: MCU of Reece as he brushes his teeth and then puts his toothbrush into the mirrored cabinet. He then shuts it and is startled by Georgie, Forcing him to gasp in a rather strange manor.
