Using your script to guide you, let’s put together a quick
storyboard. A storyboard is a series of rough drawings of
the shots you want to use. Making a storyboard is a good
option because it helps guide you as you shoot and edit
your video.
Sketch your shots next to the lines from your script.
You don’t need to be too detailed. Just draw stick figures
or write enough to show the types of shots or camera
moves you want to use. If making a storyboard isn’t for
you, you can just write a list of camera shots you want to
use to record your video. It can be as simple as:
1.
Wide shot of the exterior of the bed and breakfast.
2.
Medium shot of Maya introducing the bed and breakfast.
3.
Medium shot of a bedroom.
Step 4: Make a Storyboard
TIP:
Understanding some basic camera shots—like wide,
medium, and close-up—before you start to storyboard will
help you think up creative ways to tell your story. If this seems
too complicated, create a simple video where you sit in front of
the camera and share your story with your customers.
