Changes to the opening of our film

Whilst filming, we made several changes to our opening. Initially, our idea was to have the character run into the door to create a comic element in the film opening although when we tried to film this the shots that we had obtained were not very good and did not seem as realistic. We therefore changed the script to not include this part and have Ellie bump directly into the antagonist, Chloe and then have an altercation. After this a voice over will occur detailing Ellie's life and what she has been through.

Because we had made changes to the script we also had to make changes to the storyboard that we had planned. Another change in our storyboard was the beginning, we had decided to do 4 quarters which would each have a shot of what she would be doing that morning. However, we did not have time to create this and we did not know how to do it so we simply decided to leave it out. By changing parts of our storyboard and script, we ensured that the opening looked realistic as well as creating verisimilitude.
