	'Force Recon', the ACADEMY video, has footage that I could get off on for ever ... ... just my cup-of-tea! But, as usual, the editing left me itching to trim it down to suit my own preferences - leaving only the bits that press my particular buttons. So, as an example of how a few 'stills' can tell a potent story ... and how you can select and reject to suit your own taste ... I hope the guys at The Academy won't object if I use 'frame grabs' from their footage to illustrate my point. 'Force Recon' contains what are, for me, some of the hottest sequences available from their catalogue. To find out more about the original movie, check out ... http://www.academymen.com/ The movie footage is, naturally, in full colour - and hot to watch. Frames grabbed from video leave a slightly blurred image - and I prefer black-and-white to build my own mental scenarios on. Personal storyboards can be as simple as you like; just something to focus the mind. Selecting a couple of faces - a position - a predicament ... then leave your imagination to join the dots and imagine what might happen next. Enjoy.
MY PERSONAL 'Force Recon' STORYBOARD A group of military men on exercise in woodland, a rival team lying in wait - ready to pounce
	A dawn raid on their camp starts with the sentry being taken down - then others are in for a rude awakening.

	From then on, the attack team are free to indulge themselves by demonstrating their power over prisoners. Separately, each is subjected to seriously uncomfortable 'softening up' before interrogation.
