Photo boards
Here are some initial photoboards to reference framing and my approach to coverage of our different scripts.
Important here to use some imagination, as there is no art and minimal propping in the frames. What I hope this provides is an idea of scale of the product, propping, and talent within the scripts.
We did take some video boards on the day to show you the match cut, but I would say most are self explanitory from the photoboards.
In terms of camera movement, we are split between sticks, slider, dolly, and handheld.
We can talk about all this tomorrow once you land in beautiful Vancouver!
BIKE 15
That would be playing the beginning of the 15 as a clean oner...
A nice and clean shot of all our wonderful art direction, extras, and our hero having a great night out with friends.
dollying in from our wide all the way into our can on the bar— holding static for a second before the match cut
Straight to the water bottle lifting out of frame— then dollying back into our biking wide with our hero riding away.
PICNIC 6
This one is pretty maliable, very easy to go closer— but if you’re anticipating it being wider or angled lower than this, let me know so I can alert our art team to bring in more for the backyard party.
JOG 6
It should make sense when looking at the gifs, but I want to make sure we are cool with the way everything is framed up.
We also have a couple different options for backdrops in our neighbourhood area— I leaned into one I liked best and sold the vibe, but it’s easy to switch.
BIKE 6
The main differences are that we are using an alt opening shot with the 3 cans and we will tighten up timing on our bike shot. We will have him lift the water bottle out of the frame while he’s already riding to get to our wide framing quicker!
