FIlming


 These are photos from our filming sessions, we filmed 3 scenes. We filmed them in the G block changing a room to look like a office.  We had to re do it a few times to get it right but in the end we got there.

Jobs to do/ Health and Safety

 This is what we have in our orange booklets which we will take out with us when we go out filming. It has a smaller version of out story board in it. our script and then other information such as.  The proposal/ treatment. Target audience and our roles. The equipment we will be needing. Our location breakdown sheet and the Health and Safety, risk assessment - hazards. As well as the equipment booking form.



Story Board

These are our  story boards, they show our story in small detail, they also show the shot types and directions that we will be using when it comes to filming.
With out them it would make filming a lot harder as we wouldn't know what we were doing.



initial ideas

These are our initial ideas which then lead to our final idea. We had a lot of ideas to begin with, and it took us a while to decide what we wanted to do.  We wanted to make sure it kept in the 15 classification so we had a few problems with some of our ideas.



We had to make sure we kept in the BBFC classifications. This made it harder to finalize our ideas.



roles.


Director: Bea
Camera: Alice
Editor: Tenda
Production Designer/Sound: Luke

These are our roles of what we have all decided on doing. Each one of us will work mainly on our section of the film. Even though we each have our own jobs we will be able to help each other out. Me being the director i will be in charge of writing the script and making sure everything is organized, i will also be telling the actors and camera operator what to do. Alice being the camera operator is in charge of drawing the story board and filming the film. Tenda being the the editor will be in charge of editing the film and making sure it all makes sense. Luke will have to record the sound trake and add any effects to the film.

Key Frames

This is our Key Frame Grid, this shows the main scenes and what are the key things which happen in the film. We were then able to make a story board and script from this. This helped us a lot.

mood board

This is my mood board for the project Hunted. This helped with getting ideas for what our film could be about. From the mood board you can see that we will be focusing on a story of someone running away and death. There is also other ideas on the mood board.

This is a test i did, to see what type of person i am. The test told me i am a 'principled independent' with a 'dark side'. I found that this test was wired and it didn't ask relevant question. I don't agree with what it has said i'm like.
ACTION SEQUENCE
This is the action sequence for the bomb sequence, this shows Alice running as she is looking for the bomb. We used different angles to film this as well as different editing tools. I filmed this while Alice acted then i edited it. Before shooting i made a story board so it was easy to see what we were and needed to film.

This is the Horror stills task. We had to make a story board of different shots we could use when making the horror still. We used 10 different shot types. We then made a video using the story board. We used Final cut to do this. we used different effects to do so. Luke and Tenda did the acting in the film while me and Alice filmed and directed. We then each edited out own version on them. I used fades and different types of editing to do this.
New York Training
This video of New York was made using final cut. It was training so that i was able to use final cut. It helped a lot. This task involved making a video out of different stills of of New York and put them together as well as adding as music. I used different effects and tools. This helped when it came to making more videos in the future.

Final Video
This is my final video, it has all the sequences together. To do this i made a master and then dragged each one in to the master. I also added my ident at the beginning so people know its mine. In the master i added Music to the the action sequence of alice. This made it more professional. I also used the same music for my title card and credits. This meant it had a persistent piece of music throughout and you are able to recognize it. I also added effects so it looked like the college was blowing up. I used visual effects and sound effects.  When making the master you have to watch out for black gaps, these happen a lot when you haven't put the different sequences together enough. It took a few attempts to get the final video perfect as there was a few hidden mistakes.

This is a test that i did to find out what sort of person i am. My results tell me that i am a 'principled independent' with a 'dark side'. This test was weird and the question were relevant. I don't think that the result they gave me is what i'm like or how i am.
Finding The Bomb
This task was to film two agents (me and Alice) finding the bomb and then trying to disarm it. There was 3 different locations for this task; the control room, out side/corridor and the room in which Alice finds the bomb in. The props we used were a bomb, a phone and a computer. While me and Alice did the acting Tenda and Luke filmed and directed. There was 17 shots in the fining the bomb task. We used shot types such as; long shot, normal shot, mid shot, close up and point of view. To make sure we did it all right we made story boards and mud maps.
The Meeting
This task was to film a conversation between the two actors. The conversation  involved Tenda telling Luke what he had to do and how he would have do it. The meeting took place in  a class room. We used props such as; a bomb, laptop, chair and a desk. The performers were Luke and Tenda. The part of the film has 12 different shots, as well as different shot types; match on action shot, medium close up, long shot, over the shoulder and close up.
During the session we learnt the rule of 180 when filming speech between two people. We then used it when it came to filming.
Phone Call
This task was the beginning of the bomb sequence. It involved 18  different shots. We used 3 different locations. Location 1 was in a building. Location 2 was outside and then there was location 3 which took place in the corridor of the G block. Tenda and Luke were our actors while me and Alice filmed and directed.
We used different shot types to add effect to the film. We used shot types such as; establishing shot, medium shot, close up, extreme close up and          long shots. The film showed a phone which was between two people (Tenda and Luke) who were planting a bomb in the college.

Target Audience
This  exercise was so that we and other people would know what sort of brands they could use to promote films and other media.
'Audience' is the people who watch, read, buy, listen to, or use a media product.
In advertising and media, a 'target audience' is the main group of people that the media product is aimed at appealing.
