Exciting Update!

Hey there! Today, my group met at a coffee shop to finish the main aspects of our preproduction. We completed our storyboard, our production logo, and figured out some of the props we need to get before we begin filming. 

                                                 

I haven’t shared much about our storyboard but it is finally complete!

                                                

After numerous hours spent thinking of how we want to demonstrate our story, we are happy with the decisions we made.

Just to walk you through our storyboard, it starts off with an event happening in the future of the film. A person is being thrown into a garage. This character suffers from OCD, therefore multiple small aspects within the garage tend to drive this person insane. The setting of the garage will be messy to help indicate the character’s personality through this disorder. As the main character goes to fix the objects that they are bothered by, they notice a line of screwdrivers on a table. The main character moves one screwdriver to make it symmetrical and as they move the screwdriver, the title will appear as a 90 degree angle is formed and will fade to black. After, it will go to the actual beginning of the film and would show the main character’s daily routine to demonstrate the character’s disorder affecting their daily life. The setting of the bedroom will be clean and everything will be symmetrical in order to develop the character. Throughout this opening, the credits will be shown as well, following a similar font to the title.

                    

My group and I wanted to create a production logo, but we weren’t really sure what we wanted. I jokingly started randomizing the order of the first letter of each of our names, as shown above, and we ended up really liking one of them. 

                                              

GEER is the production company we came up with. We pronounce it as “gear”, just made out of the first letter of each of our names. Since we decided to pronounce it that way, we thought of literally incorporating a gear! Clever, am I right? We plan on creating this within Adobe Photoshop and incorporating it within our film opening.

Overall, we worked really well together and were really productive today. I can’t wait to see our final product as we get closer! If you have any suggestions on how to improve our story, be sure to leave them in the comments below!
