Storyboard
We've cateogrised our storyboard into three parts:
The Pink post it notes represent the bedroom scene
The Orange post it notes represent the Shopping/Town scene
Finally, The blue represents the forest scene.
Since planning/drawing our moodboard in the photo above, We've added more post-it notes, this time in light green to represent the house scene towards the end of our video. This is where the climax occurs as the best friend sees the torn up photo. Because this was added in later, it's not included in our animatic
