How the storyboard has changed?

Our original idea for The Executioner was an establishing shot of the church with short sharp flashbacks to the executioners childhood making the opening scene very mysterious and giving the audience some information about the past and who this character is. In our actual opening with editing we started to film a story but still sticking to parts like the establishing shot of the church. 

For this 2nd part of the script we kept things the same in most of the shots. Shot 4 is clearly shown at the very start of the opening but we had chosen to have multiple of these shots leading closer to the executioner creating the effect of suspense for the audience and the shot worked really well due to it being a windy day and the brush was moving in a style that you would associate with horror. We have kept shot 6 however we have moved it later on in the opening so we can focus more on the main storyline.

When we were originally filming we had shot 8 with the weapons but we had lighting difficulties but still added it to our first cut, however when filming and editing for the 2nd cut we thought we would stick to the main storyline and cut this shot out completely. As we decided to focus on 1 character in the main storyline we don't have the hooded and bound characters that we would of had but we have the main victim who gets followed, chased and captured by the executioner.

In the end of The Executioner opening we were going to have the victims walk inside the church and the door would slam however due to focusing on 1 victim we decided we wanted to kill him and show his dead body of a rocking chair and have the executioner's hand go over the camera going to black. With shot 10 we decided to have the flashes at the start with the establishing shot to clearly show some of the main storyline of the film.

When filming with the clapper board and a log of all our shooting days we did

This is my clapper board, which we decided to use during filming. I used this as I thought it looks professional and that it would help us keep count of all the shots we have filmed. For every shot I would hold it up to the camera and then snap it and say action, this was useful as it told the actors and camerman to start filming. It was also useful as during the editing process we knew which shots we used and which shots we didn't.

These are log papers of all the shots that we filmed. Every time we would film, I would write down the shot, how many takes we did, a description of the shot and then put no or yes (N/Y) depending on if we used it in the final cut. This was useful as it helped us keep track of all the shots we filmed and how many takes we did for each shot.
