Before I made my pixilation I needed to story board what I wanted to do. Before story boarding I came up with a very rough idea for my pixilation, I then looked at good examples of pixilation to decide whether what I wanted to do could exploit the advantages of making a pixilation. Pixilation gives quite a jittery motion to a film but it does allow for some interesting effects without the use of post production software. I decided to use a box that could change into other things for my short as I thought it would be interesting to play with metamorphosis in my pixilation. After I decided what I wanted to do I wrote out the film describing how each scene would run. After writing it all out I made that into a story board thinking about all the shots/angles I could use that would enhance the film.
Once I'd finished my first storyboard I created a second one using A6 bits of card which was a neater version of the first with a few changes. I used separate pieces of paper for each shot as it allowed editing before I'd even begun to film. It meant I could swap around shots or even remove some completely and replace them with something better.
Once I was happy with my story boards I was ready to show them to anyone who would work on my pixilation and begin filming.
