The Moving Image

Final Project

Now that you have completed some exercises, it is time to put that knowledge to good use in to make a short film.

In groups, script and storyboard a short film of between 2 and 5 minutes.
The story should be school based (to make locations easy) - however, this is not essential, if you think you can work around it!
You will have a few periods to prepare before filming. Spend your first period watching the short films below, to give you some ideas, then go back to the 'PRE-PRODUCTION' page to remind yourself about scripting and storyboarding.
No filming will take place without a script and storyboard!
