The Book OF Eli

We were given the Book Of Eli Script without seeing the film beforehand and had to re-create one scene. We were in groups of around 6 and each had a task to do e.g. editing, acting, filming, doing the storyboard etc. I found it a very useful task as it gave us an idea on how to interpret the script and be creative with very little. We also got to see the scene from the movie afterwards to compare ours with, which also helped us see the script interpreted slightly differently and the bits that we managed to do very similarly.
This is our finished scene from the Book Of Eli:

My Animatic



Animatic Feedback From The Class:
  • Love the title at the end, really effective. Great animatic.
  • Spelt starring wrong, the music with the sound effects are good and flow nicely. As it gets more dramatic you change to suddenly between tracks I think.
  • Music was very good, made you feel sad, sound effects were clear as to what was going to happen. The mixture of sound effects and piano was good! Pictures were clear so I was able to see what was happening, title was a bit too random, didn't fit.
  • Sad music in the background with images of a small child and then the music drops to a drone and an image of an older woman who could be the mum appears to see that something has happened, as you hear her scream, good shot of the location with the police tape and the news appearing of the child's death.
  • I like the transition between the shots I really like the different music, but maybe you could turn down the nice music and turn up the other music to give it a more eerie feel.
  • The sound effects are good but the music over powers it at times. The titles are also very clear to read.
