For this assignment, we had to create a storyboard for an instructional video using software program Celtx, which allows you to sketch out the positions of cameras and equipment for each shot. After trying to decide what to do for it, I got inspired when I was away for the weekend in Devon and decided to do a step by step storyboard of how to get from a sheep to a household rug, showing the complete DIY process. My fiance's mother is a weaving extraordinaire and does this on a regular basis, so happily enough she agreed to model each step for the photos.
Below is a Google Docs presentation of the finished CeltX storyboard presentation.
I found that there are many advantages to using CeltX, as it provides a way of being able to visualise and lay out exactly how the process of filming will take place. It makes planning much easier and the process itself is simplified, since the shots are already completely laid out and all that's left to do is follow the story board on the day of actual shooting.
