Whilst planning our final idea we looked at my original idea and questioned how well we would be able to pull off all of the ideas.
The main thing that we changed was the idea of the stalker drawing in the condensation on the window, and also the idea that the stalker comes inside to the swimming pool area. Instead of this we thought about deceiving the audience. By this, we meant that instead of the stalker coming in, another character enters the room. The audience will see his feet pacing up and down and assume that it is the stalker. When the girl comes up from swimming she screams before looking relieved to see her father standing over her.
After we had all agreed on a storyline that we were happy with, we decided to start on the script. The majority of the scene will not have dialogue until the end of the sequence when the swimmer exclaims "You scared me!" followed by "Supper's ready" spoken by the father and then "I'll be there in five". The rest of the scene will be the swimmer swimming up and down lengths of the pool with shots showing the stalker through the window.
Our idea of the storyline is therefore quite basic which means that we will be able to concentrate on getting interesting and different shots to what would normally be seen in an AS level project, for example the underwater shots of the girl swimming.
Once we had the script sorted, it was time to start storyboarding. This involved thinking of all the shots we wanted and adding in all the details needed for each shot. For example, the time each shot lasts, the lighting in each shot and any movement in each shot. Our first storyboard only showed our first ideas and did not need to be particularly neat. We continued to edit it until we reached our final storyboard.
Below is our final story board:
