Filming

Today we started filming for the first time , it was quite exciting to finally put our ideas of the storyboard into action with the camera. Due to not having the right equitment for our thriller, we started filming from the end of the thriller to the beggining which was quite challenging but we are getting through it quite well. We started filming the Scene where the girl is held hostage and Emma was tied up in ropes and had her mouth taped up which looked really believable.
The 'task is going well soo far.

The Props , The Location , The Costumes/Dress Code

Props...

When thinking about what props to use we thought very carefully in terms of how we could do shots with props we wanted to use and how we could use them to draw the viewers attention in. we also thought about the sort of things that are appropriate and could work with what we wanted to do and clues we could give the viewers without given away to much information.

Photos

Necklace

Rope

Costumes...
When talking about the sort of costumes we want to put our characters into we thought about the professional look and the sort of clothes people would expect to see a photographer in and also the sort of clothes you would normally see a teenage girl in.

We came up with:

Man: Casually Dressed, Black trousers,, Black Jacket, Casual Black Shoes.

Locations..
When we discussed where we wanted to film our shots we decided it will be more exciting to film it around an old run down garage dinstead of a posh studio where you would expect it. By having a location like this will make the audience ask more questions and feel uneasy. We also planned to film down an alley where the two characters meet, as it is an unusual place to meet someone for the very first time.

Shooting Scheldue

This is like a plan of how we are going to film , this in orders us to be prepared and organise when it comes down to filming and also keeps us on track of what we have to do .

This is our shot list which we put together:

Extreme close up
Close up of equipment

Pan of wall x 2
Close up of feet
Crain of body (slow)
Mid shot, zoom into
Close up of his feet
Close up of her feet
Close up of necklace and him looking at it
Mid shot of them walking away (showing costume)

Continued StoryBoard -

The story board that we had to create came straight from our individual minds and we had to put it together in order of how we are going to film it. It was quite hard to draw the storyboard due to the fact that we had to be quite precise in each shot, we had to draw each storyboard so that if we gave it to another person they would know excactly how to film it ( thats how accurate and precise we had to be ).
We had to add colour and also how long the shot is going to be , what shot tytpe its going to be i.e panning , close up etc.

It was also a good experience .

StoryBoards -

The synopis

We deceided to go with a typical thriller film by making the beginning of the film start with the middle so that the audience already us thinking from the start. Our thriller is about a man who goes around taking the role of fake photographer when realy a perverted pedophile. His charming and believable atitde towards his fake occupation allows him to convince innocent girls who want to be a model that he is a photograpther and persuades and convinces them that they are going to get career. The pedophile then comes across a girl who is in a higher level than all his other victims and makes her his next target.

He carrys on his professional ways towards her for a few weeks so that she actually beleives what hes saying is real , untill he shows his real occupation and starts to abuse her and take photos to satisfy himself.
Everyoones asking . . .

WILL HE GET CAUGHT ?

- Planning Ideas -

As we got into groups, we had to plan and get an idead of what our fil was going to conatain and be about. We wanted to stick and relate to the thriller genre so we came up with ideas like :

*--Memory Loss
*--Newspaper headlines
*--Flash backs of the Past
*--Wall of photos of dirty women
*--Girls looking pretty and nice

These are to make the audience think and wonder which is what thrilles intend to do.

We also expanded our thoughts and talked about the equitement we should use. We thought of using Whips , Chains , handcuffs , Costumes and jewerlery that signifies a certain character.

- The Task Set -

For my task , i have to participate in make an opening scence which is set to last 2 minutes.

I will also be participating in this task alongside Emma Martin and Paige Arnold. At first , we will be planning our short film - this will consist of storyboards etc. - we will then be doing pre-recording about what we will be doing , and then filming as a group all together . As we are filming as a group , we will then edit our own sequence each individually so that we have a chance to show how we will want ours to be .
