storyboards

As a group we sat and made thumbnail sketches to storyboard how the action should take place, plus the look of the settings. We had done our research, so it was easier to visualise this with the references at hand.

INTRODUCTION
  • We start off in a mountainous valley surrounded by forests. 
  • The valley points to a shack in the middle. 
  • We see a close up of the shack then fading down to black before revealing the lift shaft. 
  • Follow this down to the bottom where we see the scientist on his radio
  • We then see a close up of the scientist/ view of the lab 
  • Through the door in front of him we can the second scientist chiselling at a block of ice
  • He hears a noise and puts his ear to the ice
  • Eyes open inside the ice/ cracks appear



(OPTIONAL INTRODUCTORY SCENES) 
  • Zoom into the shack
  • Zoom in through the hole in the roof to reveal the lift from above
  • Fade to black down lift then switch views of the lift shaft



YETI ESCAPES
  • We see the scientists from the view of the ice block
  • Yeti breaks free from the ice
  • Scientists look up in horror
  • Screen goes blank and noises of a scuffle and running can be heard
  • The lab is empty, trashed and emergency alarms are going off.
  • The lift doors open and the scientists run out
  • The yeti's hands appear at the top of the lift shaft
  • The scientists feet show they are running


(OPTIONAL) Live camera scene showing the sky as running through the trees (using a hand held camera).

  • The scientists are shown from behind, running
  • The come to an abrupt halt
  • More yetis stand in their way
  • They turn around to look behind them
  • The Yeti chasing them finally appears
  • They look up horrified
  • Yeti bashes the scientists out the way
  • Yeti hugs his wife and family
  • Scientists look dazed and confused
  • The yetis walk off into their forest home
