The task we had to do was to watch a clip from Back to the future and analyse its story storyboard factors such as mise-en-scene, framing, shot types and information such as sound. We were told to do a storyboard as it was practice for the final children's film task so that we knew how to organise our thoughts on the paper. Once we had made notes we put them into the form of a storyboard, drawing the shot types and mise-en-scene, while writing underneath the sound and framing.
Connor looked at the mise-en-scene in which he noticed that the main props were household items such as clocks, a toaster, dog food and a television. The clothing was 1980's in fitting with the time period, and the setting was an old mans house which was full of junk, showing the modern life of the time of trying to find new ideas since the boom of television.
Adam Mulcahy looked at sound and diegetic sound throughout the first sequence of the scene where the house hold items such as the clocks were ticking, differed in pace to create suspense and confusion. This portrayed the confusion of the old mans character and when the young boy comes and finds that the man is not there, it adds to the mystery of this obscene character.
The main shot types which Mel looked at was a pan of a mid angle close up of the house hold items showing that on their own they created a simple scene but the pan then shows that the sheer amount of them compacted into the house just shows the complexity of the characters and the objects in the house. When the guitar goes off at the end of the scene, there is a fast tracking shot of the boy as he flies backwards from the blast of the amplifier.
Our storyboard of the film Back to the Future, which includes sound, framing, shot types and mise-en-scene.
