Video Final Our title for our film was Chips and the tag line would be remember to restock the shelves or else.... We incorporated shots of the robber running in and having close ups and far away shots and even servalence  cameras as one of the shots where the robber is stealing the chips from the shelve and then the camera follows him out while running. Our process was first just coming up with an idea and then making those storyboards for the film and making sure we had everything planned out and put together nicely.
