   To create an interesting film for your audience to thoroughly enjoy, one must  choose specific camera angles and transitions between these angles that help best tell the story. I feel that how one tells a story is infinitely more important than what that actual story is. Although it's the overall story that makes a story good it is the directors way of showing the information that makes the film great.
   Although we've chosen a variety of angles in our storyboard we've constructed, the point of view angle is clearly something we would like to incorporate in this film. The point of view angle is personal and intimate and allows to viewer to immerse themselves in the film. We'd like a point of view angle to be the opening shot, with a black vignette symbolizing blinking. This will immediately put the viewer in the head of the character and It also establishes the location of a waiting room.
      Transitions between the waiting room and the hallucinations in the forest and other settings are also very important. We would like to be creative in these cuts and maybe even cut from his eye in the waiting room to his eye in the forest or something in the shape of his eye like in the bathtub scene in the movie "Psycho"  starting at the 2:50 mark.
