Task Five (Blog Posting): Provide a brief account (1-2 paragraphs) on how the use of planning (storyboarding and scripting aided your groups short film.

Using the storyboard allowed our group to all work together to come up with a plan that showed each scene in our short film. This meant that all group members had a clear visual script that they could refer to and no scenes would be forgotten.

This aid applies well to the VARK learning theory. Visual, aural, reader/writer and kinaesthetic. It caters well for different learning needs within a group, Visual; see the plan of action, aural; discussion of each scene, reader/writer; room to make written notes, Kinaesthetic; acting out the scenes.

The storyboard allows all group members to be clear on the scene order which assists with good time management, clear roles and participation.
