Final Project
Continuity Scene

Storyboard due: Lab 10
Filming: Lab 11
Editing: Labs 12 and 13
Completed video due: end of Lab 13

Create a scene with a clear beginning, middle and end, using one actor. Your storyboard
will have no more than 6-8 panels. Remember, each panel equals one shot only.

You MUST include a change of direction. You can fit a POV in the
sequence, it's optional. You will base this on the shooting and editing principles
you have learned for continuity editing.

There will be no dialogue. You may add music or sound effects in Premiere.

You will work with a partner, each person will submit his/her own idea. You will
storyboard, shoot and edit your own video. Your partner will act in your scene. Both
you and your partner will shoot both your videos in the same location on the Hunter
campus, during one lab period. The editing will be completed in one lab session, and
uploaded to vimeo or youtube.

Before shooting, you will workshop your storyboard with your lab instructor the week
before.

If you wish to shoot in the library, you’ll need clearance beforehand.

You’ll use the school’s video cameras and editing stations. Using outside equipment is
not permitted.
