Planning

 Storyboard

On this page it starts with a close up shot of a flame from a lighter. It then shows another close-up of the ned a lit cigarette. Following this, it shows a medium shot of a boy throwing a cigarette outside his window which is my character Oliver. It then goes to a medium shot of him throwing clothes into his bag and going downstairs for school. Then the camera shows a medium shots of Oliver and his mom in a car on the way to school and a long shot of the car stopped next to the library.

On this page it shows a long shot of Oliver stepping out of the car and a long shot showing the car driving off. Next, a medium shot is captured which shows Oliver initially walking towards the school then walking in the opposite direction.

This is the storyboard I have created so far. And after finishing it I have made some changes to the plot of the flm. Instead of the main character Oliver going all the way to the bathroom after getting dropped off, the opening will end as soon as Oliver begins walking off in the oppositie direction and the title car "Straight A's" will be shown.
