By the end off this week 22nd of friday all the footage should be done and starting to get edited with the title sequences

New filming in school

Last week we filmed every free period we all had and this allowed us to get a range of different footage to edit which is good as we are not constantly filming every time after edits.

The filming is nearly done but me and priyanka will be filming one shot off me walking straight head on to the camera and also Luke is adding a motorbike scene to allow better opening and draws the audiences tension more.

Footage of mine and Lukes scene uploading soon

Problems with filming in uxbridge

On the 4th of march weekend me luke and priyanka went to uxbridge but realised they wouldn't let us film on the train station we did improvise and film outside the train station but then got told we were causing an obstruction and wasn't allowed to film there again. We then realised we needed a new idea for mine and Lukes scene so made a quick plan of what our new plan was and started to film in school.

The 2nd shot which is the one below was better than the first as you do notice the camera shaking like the first one, but when we looked again in detail me and Priyanka noticed it does the slightest movement, so we did need to reshoot it but then changed the idea completely to make our opening better so did not need to reshoot.

Priyanka tried the pan shot of me coming out off the train station but did not go expected as best as we would of hoped due to not being in the middle of the camera as supposed to be for a perfect clear pan. we did keep trying and got some good ones but none that were perfect.


(Footage uploading soon)

Shot List

This is our shot list (will upload clearer version soon) this will help us with filming the scenes and what angles to use and which ones work best. it will also keep us organised so we can get filming done fast and posible 

Final Typography

These titles need to be made into gif's so they are able to move on and off the screen and also stay on the screen for the same amount of time for all of the titles. Rather than putting all of the titles at the end, we are going to cut them into the clip. This is because we do not want the audience to get drawn into the opening and be excited to watch the rest of the 'film' but they then become bored after staring at titles for around 20/30 seconds - the last thing we want to do as a group is to lose the audience.

The titles will appear in white background with black writing as this will create a bold meaning and the audience will be able to clearly to see this. we have looked at more thrillers and decided to change ours to fit the other thrillers to draw audiences that have seen these different films, we have researched the times and how they come onto the screen and go off the screen. Will upload the times soon

Typography

This is what the title sequences are going to look like (as in white writing on a black background) however Luke has not yet changed the font to out 'harting' choice of font and has not yet placed the text  in the correct place and made them into gif's and edited how they will enter and exit the screen.

We are hoping that these titles will be finished by the end of the week as we need to see how they will fall into place with the footage that we have. It has been a struggle to try and get the title sequence done as Luke is also playing one of the characters in our opening sequence to he is making time for filming. 

(done by chelsea)

progress so far:
 
As chelsea couldn't film the ally way scene as the lighting was too much on the camera as the ally way was wide, so priyanka went on the weekend as her ally way is thinner and not much light and filmed there. 

We have finished my scene of walking outside of the school and watching luke smoke, but today 17th march priyanka is going to reshoot the motorbike scene of Luke as it needs more shots.

Tomorrow 18th of march me and priyanka will add in a front view shot of me walking out to make that part better.
