self-evident, but surprisingly(or not), I didn't start out making lists, or even storyboards...it took about two years to get on board(yeah-yeah), with that one. I kept things simple, and in turn, made it more complicated. Now I do stick figure storyboards...Shot list, and a wardrobe/prop list. We re-shot the cemetery scene a year later(cast was gracious) (Matthew Hughes as DP), and by that-this point, at least we had a shooting diagram....No storyboard, but an additional loosely composed shot list...we deviated, but that's the point...you keep it loose, because you can.....save your brain for ideas, not remembering....
Opening Scene for "Year of the Dog"
The song playing is "some dark holler" performed by Nick Jones. (originally, I had something by Debussy playing)
