Nicola, Chloe and I have began to create a Animatics of our story board which is still in process. This will allow us to practise our editing skills, as well as creating a visual and colourful understanding of how we want our filming to be produced.
What we have done so far?
We have began using the editing software 'pixlr.com' to colour in the shots. So far, we have coloured in all the screen shots, so next lesson we will put it together to make a short movie animatic. Although, at first, as a group we did have some difficulty working the various different tools, however, we manage to enable the tools we needed to use
How have/will we do this? - so far, we have done everything listed in italic:- After Nicola created the drawn story board, we scanned it onto the imac computers, then saved them onto our accounts.
- We then print-screened each shot to make it a single image and rotated them clockwise
- Then using 'www.pixlr.com' to add colour and text, experimenting with the 'Paint Tool,' changing the opacity of the colour and depth of the brush size. This allowed us to create shadowed areas within the image.
- When finished, we used an editing software called 'Final Cut' which allow us to create and put together our animated version of our story board - we will do this next lesson.
Here are some photos below of our editing in process:

In conclusion, this animated version of our story board did take some time to create, however, it was extremely useful and feel we have created it successfully so far. In result, it allowed us to see our story board visually moving and enabled the audience to get a better understanding of what our aim is going to be when filming the opening. In addition, doing this activity did allow me to gain more skills using pixlr for when we edit the final piece and I am looking forward to using the editing software 'Final Cut'.
