This storyboard wanted Shockwave to turn and look at Soundwave during this shot. In the movie, he remains still.

The storyboard for this shot mentions that Earth should be shown on one of the monitors. In the movie, it looks like an image of Cybertron or one of the Moonbases is shown instead.

The storyboard has the correct angle and distance for this shot. In the movie, the shot of Laserbeak's POV is way too close to where Ironhide is.
