CONTINUING YOUR FILM OPENING

Today Tuesday 18 December we continue with your thriller openings. 

You are all at different stages, so select your next steps from the following.

You do not all have to do the same thing within the group: divide up some tasks!

• research (with evidence) into fonts for the title sequence (use the Macs, with iMovie open, taking screenshots)
• storyboard of all shots
• call sheet for each shoot
• location shots
• images from the internet of how you see your characters
• 'To Do' lists of shopping, props or planning
• uploading images or scans of what you have done recently
• exact wording of your titles, in the order they will appear

AND FOR EACH STEP, A SEPARATE PRODUCTION LOG ENTRY!

FILMING YOUR THRILLER FILM OPENING

Today Group 2 sets off to the Mansion for our first shoot.

We have story-boarded the scene. We have already invested time in rehearsing the shoot: we have mocked up how we plan to set out all our props; we have done dummy runs with the camera mounted on its dolly and we have ensured that all three members of the group have had hands-on practice.

This will pay off today as we do the real shoot.
