Starting from where we left off on the last blog post. I was trying to decide and plan out how long each of my scenes were going to be to make sure I stay within the time limit. So I looked at my storyboard and thought out how long I felt each scene needed to be to make the time limit.
As you can see from the storyboard, I decided to make my opening scene with all the credits 30 seconds. This is so I can include all the credits needed as well as create a sense of mystery with all the different shots and camera angles of the murder scene.
For the next scene, I decided to make it 10 seconds to reinforce that feeling of mystery as the phone is answered with not much dialogue.
The third scene I decided would be 20 seconds for this would allow the characters to discuss all the specifics of the crime as well as allow the audience to get acquainted with them before they reach the murder victim.
For the final scene before the title is shown, I decided to give them 30 seconds to examine parts of the body and discuss specifics before discovering the distinguishing marking on the victim's body that links the victims to the killer and sets up the rest of the movie.
The title scene will then play for 10 seconds before the actual final scene which will play for another 10 seconds so the victim can be established and set up what will happen next in the movie.
In total this is around a minute and fifty seconds which I feel is a good basis going forward. I feel I'm now ready to start production and am satisfied with what I have planned.
