Reflection of childrens film

3 things we did well:
 good use of music and sound affect.
 the camera work was sturdy
 shos were well framed

3 things we need to improve on:
the film needs to be longer
the editing needs to be more fluid
the script needs to be better written 

Script for our piece

first scene; monologue:

Victim: Wh...wh...where am I? How did i get here? What's going on? The last thing I remember was walking through the woods...... then i felt an immense pain on the back of my head, like something.... or someone hit me there...... I remember a feeling of fear as I was struck... and now i'm alone... No.. I.. I can't be alone, no one to talk to, no one to listen to.... I CAN'T BE ALONE!!!!

health and safety concerns when filming

Area; fields, lots of rocks and trees. We would need to take care of where we step or if we decide to film from up a tree we would have to take lots of care not to fall from the tree.

Filming: we have to make sure that if we film outside, the camera does not get wet as we could get an electric shock from it.

 

Cast & Crew

Matt - Camera
Odin - Sound/Victim
Ali - Editing/Murderer

Everyone will make their own way down to Odin's house, where we shall shoot our opening sequence.  The props will be simple household objects that will be in the house anyway, and the costumes will be provided by whoever is playing that particular character.

Initial Ideas For Classification

 15 - We chose this film classification because it will give us more freedom to explore the areas we want to, and it will not restrict our audience as much as an '18' rating would.

Initial Ideas For Filming

Location
Arrington (near Royston)
Record when it is dark.

 The house that we will record in.

The woods that we shall record in.

Initial Ideas

Thriller opening based on a phobia.

Atelophobia - Fear of imperfection 
A murderer that wants to rid the world of imperfect people


Isolophobia - Fear of being alone
Someone in a coma, but still acknowledges that they are alone.  They can only see black but can still think and hear things around them.  The story could slowly progress backwards to reveal how the person was put into a coma.

Preliminary task

Description/Evaluation of Task
  This is our preliminary task for the thriller opening that we shall be creating.  We used simple yet effective shots and transitions.
