References for future storyboarding and new shot list for a scene

 It was liberating to continue sketching and bringing through, maybe small steps, but nonetheless, bringing closer the creation to the actual videos. I am started to feel anxious but in a excited way, not necessarily in a manic way, the usual state that i go through when i have assignments that are coming in. I been having many different ideas to how to explore the story, many times inspired by things going around me, which is probably very unexpected, since in the beginning I had some difficulty coming to terms with the creating, but now seems to be pouring over, the day now not having enough time for me. In any case, I been able to continue progressing, in the way of programming my shooting in the net couple of weeks, more resources to be available.

In an advice within a video about storyboarding, I heard how the proportions could be skew and therefore making the storyboard not successful at portraying something that could actually be shot in location. Though I am aware not all of my shots will come out looking exactly the same, as well as not being able to portray 3d objects and human bodies realistically due to my art skills, I still wanted to make sure to eliminate any other determining factors. For that, I saw appropriate to start taking pictures of the different settings that my movie opining will take place in, starting with the one with the most screen time, the kitchen. 

In the table, where i plan to have Mariposa take her meals and other important elements of the story, therefore it was the first location to see references to. In its current state, it is against a wall, may be moved for me to be able to take shots from that angle and direction, will try to do it without compromising the realness or organization of the room. There is not much space to move around it, as seen in both pictures, will need to position enough space for me and my camera to appear without being in the shot or too close to the character that is uncomfortable for the both of us.                                                           The various objects still in the table, in exception of those who i think show the environment where Mariposa lives, will be moved away, will need to consult my Dad to know the location for them in the day of the shooting and not have any misunderstandings. Knowing the location and approximate space, i can actually refine some of my sketches to fit into what actual space i have. It is good that i been able to have these saved on the cloud, if not, I would into a surprise when shooting day comes and i find myself without space.

I completed another shot list, scene 2, the one that is in the grocery store. I have my other shot lists organized by scene, which is only for the time being, since i plan to organize them by how i plan to organize my shooting. I thought this scene would be more complicated, but in reality i found it to be interesting and fun to visualize in my mind. This would be the most important to have a coherent shooting, since I do not unlimited time to shot, having both Mariposa and a location, still debating between the different grocery stores that are around my house, that is not my own. I will need to optimize my time there, also due to avoiding crowds, so the shot lost will be very helpful. I will try to finish the shot list for those scenes that i find more difficult and try seeing other types of shot to include.
