I’ll dedicate this entry to science.
But; while I’m here, Rob has posted up a pretty good rundown of our whole intention of, it’s basically the finalized storyboard. I’m posting it two days later because I’m slow like that,
Ripped straight from his blog, so credit goes to Rob for actually writing this:
- Fade in from black…camera moves down alleyway (establishing shots of 1st character), camera rotates around him and stops on cellphone - displaying title of film Mobile Fusion.
- Character 1 sends txt message to character 2…camera takes off down alleyway (representing travel of ‘message’), travel continues up staircase and along balcony (searching for it’s destination). Camera pans upwards to sky.
- Camera pans back down from sky…travels down ‘driveway’ and zooms in on a dark basement window.
- Camera (still representing message in motion) travels in window *light comes on…camera establishes 2nd character at computer.
- Character 2 receives message and becomes engulfed in ‘communicative energies’ (photoshop effects - green tint), then becomes a virtual representation of himself as he is swallowed.
Fade to black…fade continues into next sequence.
- Character 1 becomes ‘connected’ to character 2 and is also engulfed with ‘communicative energies’ (photoshop effects - blue tint), once swallowed he becomes a virtual representation of himself.
- Stickmen sequence…both character are now ‘virtual’ and start their journey towards each other.
- Characters become united….? (Still thinking about best way to achieve this effect).
At this stage the Fade at the end is to a white screen. This could work on it’s own. Additional words could be cheesy (NOKIA ADD MUCH?), while images could be too bus, and take up valuable seconds. This thing looks like it’s gonna run right to the 40 second mark.
