Initially, for our storyboard we chose to roughly sketch out the general narrative structure of the video. Our video was based around 4-6 key shots and scenes with bridging and linking shots between them and so we felt that to precisely plan every shot at this stage would not benefit us. Instead we sketched a variety of key shots and aspects that convey the key narrative of our music video.
We then created a second storyboard of the 'filler' or bridging shots that we needed. These are not strictly planned shots instead they are footage we can cut to and from in post production and editing and will help the overall flow of the video.
Finally we created a much more detailed and strict stroyboard including tehcnical details such as shot type, descirption of the action, camera movements and transitions. This is the storyboard we took when shooting to take reference from.
I like your approach, although it may be useful to include a little more technical detail in order to help the shoot run more smoothly. Are you including lip syncing?
