The first step we made in planning our opening before the animatic or any storyboards was to create a film timeline. The advantages of this were that we were able to stick to the 2 minute time allowance accurately and were able then to plan the sequence of events chronologically. This ensured that we had an accurate idea of which order the shots would be in and how long they would last, in turn this made the making of our storyboard much easier as all we were required to do was vissualise and draw the shots, we did not have to worry about the order and we did also have a good idea of the shots as a result of the timeline as well.
The timeline was made up of a beginning, middle and end. This meant we could easily split our sequence into sections and better focus on each section as a result. We also better plan the soundtrack for each section and thing about how we might vary the volume of it when there was and wasn't dialogue.
