For my final revisions of the project, I focused on storyboarding, shot planning, and cleaning my script to make sure everything felt realistic and achievable. I spent a few hours carefully going through my script and refining certain moments, cutting out aspects that felt unnecessary or too difficult to execute with the resources I have. While some of the original ideas were exciting in theory, I realized that practicality is extremely important for a two-minute project with limited time and equipment. Making these revisions helped the story feel more focused and manageable.
One major change I made was deciding to no longer open the project at the beach. Although I liked the visual symbolism of that setting, it became difficult to schedule and would have required more coordination than I could realistically handle. Instead, I chose to stage the opening scene beside the pool in my backyard. I felt this could achieve a similar dreamy and reflective effect without the added complications of transportation and timing. This adjustment allows me to maintain the tone I envisioned while keeping the production process efficient and controlled.
Alongside revising the script, I refined my storyboard to match the updated scenes. I mapped out specific shots, camera angles, and transitions so that filming would feel organized rather than improvised. As mentioned in my previous post, I also collected cutaways and establishing shots to support these planned sequences. Having a clear storyboard and shot list makes me feel more confident moving forward, since I now have a structured visual plan that aligns closely with my finalized script.
