Planning My Alternate Version of Black-eyed Susan (ADD PICS)

 I need to make some revisions to the production portfolio for my version of Black-eyed Susan. Starting with the script, I opened with the phone ringing. I feel like this gives more emphasis on why the phone call is so important. Then the conversation between Adira and her mother will happen and Chantal gets kidnapped. The deal that Chantal talks about will relate later in the story as to why she was kidnapped. After the flower is shown on the ground, the 'ClickClock' will play showing the media giving attention to the kidnapping of a Caucasian woman. 

Script version 4

For the storyboard, I did a quick sketch of each scene then cut it out and rearranged it. 3 of the shots I didn't know exactly what order they should be in so I marked them with a star to remember that those specific ones were optional. Everything else regarding cinematography I was going off of what the cinematographer already written down. 

Location wise, my mom said that a good place would be at a relatives condo around 15 minutes away. It was a nice building and it had automatic doors to recreate that one shot of Chantal walking out of the hotel.  

I was the only one from my group in class on Thursday which meant that I carried home all our necessary equipment. I tried to contact my group to see when we were filming or at least if I could drop off the equipment but they were unavailable. I looked at the canon camera but I had never used a camera like that to film and I didn't want to risk messing up anything. I will stick with my Galaxy S9 phone which I know how to operate. I can adjust settings to my liking and it comes with a setting of the rule of thirds grid. 

The actors were now my mom as Chantal and myself as Adira.
