Planning: Storyboard

Before we drew out storyboard I quickly wrote down an idea i had for a thriller. my group decided it would be a good idea to go with it and we added bits in, changed bits and got rid of parts. we added in the gunshot, the two people on the sofa we added in, initially it was us two in the car being chased, however we thought by doing this and reading the email it would make it easier for the audience to follow and understand.
