Provide a brief account (1-2 paragraphs) on how the use of planning storyboarding and scripting aided your groups short film.

Writing a story board is helpful for when you go to film the material. It gives you the opportunity to collate the groups ideas into the one project and think of what resources you have and what you need to obtain. You need to create a story or plot for the film and make sure everything links together.

When you go filming you can look to your story board and see what needs to be done. It can keep you on track and on topic, but you still have the freedom play around different ways of expressing the idea. For example we choose to have a leaf falling sceen but it was difficult to film just one left, so we try heaps of leaves and in the end we choose to have people throwing up leaves to have the best effect.
