As I walked among the groups, I overheard and helped to facilitate conversations that not only clarified the meaning of terms and where to put them on the storyboard, but also conversations that probed deeper. Many groups were discussing the pros and cons of one type of shot over another, the mood of the music they wanted to present, and/or the image they wanted the graphic to present. While these decisions are limited given that all groups are presenting a short news segment, it is important that students begin to give these decisions consideration for later projects. In the spring, when students revisit these skills to create a short movie, they will need to discuss the mood they want to present and which camera angle, shot, movement, music, dialogue and sound effects will best reach that objective.
