Storyboards and Shot List for 'The Hook Man'

Over this weekend I worked on my storyboards as we were approaching our shoot date for 'The Hook Man'. I began the same way I usually do when making my storyboards, with the script. These storyboards were at lot easier to visualise compared to 'The Babysitter'. I tried to keep the shots very steady for the begin of the piece to represent Jacks character at the begin of the piece.

Once Jack leaves the car and leaves Jamie, I thought to shoot these shots on the shoulder rig to create that sense of unease that Jacks character brings. The exchange between Jack and Jamie in the car with be very stable with just a simple back and forth cut.


For this part I chose shots with the edit very much in mind. I wanted the sequence where Jamie tries to start the car to be really uncomfortable, and I felt this could be achieved with a series of quick cuts back and forth between the killer approaching and Jamie in the car. 


After I completed these, I moved on to my Shot List. I just took it upon myself to create my own since Abby didn't seemed bothered about having one, which was fine but I like to have one on set.
