'P' is for Psycho Storyboard HW

What is happening in the opening sequence of the film?
- Introducing the genre with implications of gore and violence
- Lots of different angles and framing to intensify the shot
- Switches from MS to CU to intensify
- Lots of straight cuts to build the tension
- Introduces the main character and implies that he shoots a kid

How is the narrative flow established?
- Switches from main character to setting and location #
- Shows his routine - first gets the bandage, then puts it on then gets gun
- Includes dialogue from main character to victim
- Last shot fades to black

What aspects of the storyboard would you change?
- More SFX in shots 2-4
- At beginning of sequence, use more fade instead of cut for transitions
