Re: Stuck at the thumbnailing processHey there Kaidonni, man I wish I heard of this site before now because I know exactly how you feel. When I was starting out I always over thought everything...to the point where I didn't know how to even start my shot. The scariest thing is facing a blank sheet of paper.
Here's a technique that I use when facing any shot. WOFAIM.....what the heck is that?, it is a technique of boiling down every shot to it's emotional content. Glenn K always says let the emotion drive the motion.
Wants?
Objectives?....long term, short term?
Feelings?
As-if (is character impersonating another character)?
Intentions?
Moment before (continuity)?
If you can answer these Character emotion questions for your scene, you will be a lot closer to getting a picture of your Shot in your head.
Hope this helps.....stick with it.
