Finished Movie - 'Lego' Movie

After we created the storyboard we created the final clip with a series of different camera shots with a character giving another character some bad news from the initial ideas from the storyboard.

In our movie we created we did a range of shots such as: 

• An establishing shot to set the scene of the clip, which is shown of the garden.
• Medium Shot- this highlighted that they were having a conversation and to show that they were sat opposite each other.
• Reverse Shot- A reverse shot was used on both of the characters to show tension and the emotions of their faces when the news was being given, this was also done by using the 180 degree rule.
• Extreme Close Up- this was mainly to focus on the mans shot of his face before and after the girl had told him the bad news that she is pregnant, this could show tension and a build up.
• High Angle- this angle was used to show the lack of power with the character.
• Wide shot- the wide shot showed the lego man slowly falling over with the environment behind him
• Birds Eye View- to show the lego man when he had fallen over to give a dramatic effect.
• Low Angle- this was used to show the lego woman looking over the man to show that she has a higher power over the man.
• Reverse Shot- this was of the two characters talking to each other, they were used to show the emotions on each of the characters faces and highlights who each character is talking to. Also, this was shown when the woman was walking away from the scene giving a eye level shot in the camera as she left.
• Long Shot- a long shot was used when the lego woman walked away from the scene which was also emphasised by a reverse shot.

This is the final edit of our lego film:

This created the affect that the man was scared and panicked that he got his friend pregnant, to emphasise his emotions. Also, when we were making the clip we decided to add extra shots, which included the wide shot/side view of the character within the environment, which wasn't originally on the storyboard. We also added a birds eye view of the lego woman looking over the lego male after her had passed out. 

Our storyboard gave us an overall idea on what to put into our film, so we decided to add these extra shots to make the scene run better and to make the story line more obvious.
