Putting our vision on paper

Hey-ooo! Today, we began actually physically planning out our vision for the opening by drawing a storyboard. It was decided that we do not want to begin the movie right away with the credits on the lab tools. Instead, we want the first scene to be less, well I don't know...creepy! We chose to have the beginning be of a mother driving with her child in the front seat. The camera angle will be a two-person shot,which is known to be used to showcase dialogue, from the backseat of the car where you can see both characters. The son will be complaining about the radio station and ask for it to be changed. The mom says okay, and then a cut to a close-up shot of the mom changing the nob of the radio will occur. The shot will be a close-up because it will draw attention to the changing of the station and will lead into the next scene.  Audio of the radio changing between stations will be inserted, and the camera will slowly zoom into the nob turning, eventually to the point where the screen is black. Then, the camera will slowly zoom out, yet the setting will be different; it will be of a radio sitting in the scary lab. As this transition is occurring the beginning of the news report will begin. I attempted to draw out this vision onto a story board, and here is what I have so far. Please do not judge, I clearly was not born to be a talented artist.
