Clothing

The clothing we chose to use in our production seems contuary to popular stereotypes. however our choice in clothing was representative of the true story past the introduction stage of the film, however, in the opening it does seem to be contuary to colour stereotypes used in media productions, as the victim is wearing black and the killer is wearing light colours. this contrasts as white is represented as innocent and black is represented with bad and evil.

our progress so far with editing

so far in our film creating process we have got our film edited with all the video queued up, have inserted all our titles for the title sequence, and are putting together our new sound track with the video. however having looked at the video and music we have decided to edit the music slightly to give more impact and therefore more shock factor towards the last scenes, hopefully this will create more of a contrast and set our group apart.

once completed we will finish fine tuning the levels and from there we will be able to move on. for our film we have been careful to line up or queue the music to the video to give the opening impact.

we have finished filming and have began editing, ordering and putting titles together. after putting the footage of the mac we had to got back and re film a few parts to better the continuity. to make the titles we used live type and used a font to correspond with the genre of the film.

we have uploaded the footage and seen changes that need to be made from fridays filming. we have began editing and also presented our powerpoint presentations to the class.

filming

On Friday 30th our group our group filmed for the day. We started at 9 and filmed until 3.45 to discuss what we had done so far, and what was left to do. We managed to film most of the opening but we need to film and re-film a few bits for example another attempt of the running over scene, alices car driving and establishing shot of alices car and darrel running into shot.  

changes to idea for storyline

we are going to start off at Darrells house with him putting his gun n his pocket to how he is bad. also, we have decided to do point of view shots to  show someone is watching him and create suspense. 

our work so far

we have decided on a name for the production company which is ' MKSS action productions'. we chose it as it is a merge of all our initials and it also stated the genre of our opening title sequence. we have also story boarded our the sequence of events in the film so we can visualize the order of events. also we can see what the final production might look like. From story boarding we have noticed some changes, to make the film have better continuity. we have started to make our own soundtrack on FL studios to make it more personal and original. the powerpoint we have made states all the things we have decided so far such as the age rating for the film and locations etc. ordering our thoughts makes deciding on details of the film easier and more organised. we have also looked trough previous action sequences to gain ideas on how to film our crash sequence and make it dramatic without being dangerous.
