THE BOX - Storyboards - Section One.

Before we get into the storyboards, let me give you a quick synopsis of what's happened in the story prior to this moment in the script. A new Chemist, David Thomas, is at his first day on the job at a high-level government lab. He is being shown his responsibilities by his boss, Dr. Adrian Gee (pronounced like Gee Whiz). Thomas will be working with a genetically engineered virus called Lucifer, which kills almost immediately upon exposure. A group of Thugs enter the facility with the intent of stealing Lucifer. They enter the lab where a struggle with the Chemists ensues. A lone vial of Lucifer sits on a table and is tossed across the table-top during the stuggle. It's during this fight where we enter the first section of this scene:

Section One

Pretty simple, right? In words, yes. And, in this first section, the visuals are right in line with the text.





The Camera dollies with the vial
of contagion as it travels down the table
The shot matches the Story Board

The vial heads toward the end of the table.

Gee sees the vial nearing the end of the table
and says Line 1 of this scene
"Oh my God!".
The shot almost matches the Story Board
