PLANNING SHOTS

    I have found all the locations where I want to film. The first location is at my house, I will use my room and my front door. The ceiling in my room is very high, so I would like to bring a ladder into my room and film a top-down shot of the main character waking up. I want to have natural lighting come from my window. I would have to shoot the shot in the morning because light usually lights up my room. If the light isn't bright enough or too bright I can block the light or use my LED lights. The other shot I'm planning on shooting is when the main character is leaving their house and then looking at the camera looking tired and taking a deep breath.

                     

    It's not a location but I want to film a few shots in the car. I want to try to film the main character driving. I will film some mid shots in the car from the backseat and I want to try to film the main character driving. Another shot I had in mind is when the main character gets into the car slams the door and stares at the camera lifelessly. Overall I'm happy with my rough plan, but I have to finish my script and then start my storyboard. Writing the script has been quite a challenge for me. I'm not very good at writing so, coming up with what I want the characters to say has been difficult.
