Account of the processes of the preliminary task

I came up with my idea in my group. My group consists of myself, Nikki Frost and Steff Snook.
Our idea was to do a scene of one person walking through a door, entering the room and sitting down next to someone else, watching television and exchanging conversation.
The first thing that we did was to create a storyboard of our idea. The storyboard consisted of one character walking through a living room door, walking across the room and sitting down on the coach next to another character. They then exchange about 2 minutes of conversation and then the camera shows the film that they are watching before turning back again to show them watching the film and eating popcorn. We then decided what props we needed and made a props list. After that we made a shooting list of when we would shoot each part of the scene and decided when we would shoot and where.
Once we had decided this information, we created a script of the conversation between to two characters and decided who would play the characters in the scene.
Once this was all done we began to shoot. We decided to shoot our scene at Steff's house and used Stephen and Jack to be in it. Once we finished shooting our scene we could begin to edit it.
The editing didn't take very long because the scene was already well filmed and all we had trouble with was making the television sound playing as the scene showed Stephen and Jack as we filmed the TV at a different time to when we filmed Stephen and Jack.
