PRELIMINARY EXERCISE

Final film

Treatment posts

1. Is your idea practically possible to film?

My group have ensured that the content of the film is realistic and will be possible to film. We have also decided to add some sort of simplicity to the scenes avoiding an influence to punch above our belts and not reach towards a realistic goal.

2. Will it shows off the strengths of every member of your group?

In order for the production of out film to be a success my myself and group members will be taking on different roles with responsibilities, these will involve editing , filming , acting and directing. We will ensure that each group member will partake in the construction of our film reflecting their strengths and abilities and most importantly improve on their weak areas.
3. Can it be story boarded?

The story line we have created can be story boarded and will display each separate scene to help us with our organization and timing whilst filming.

4. Is it something you can reasonable shoot and edit in the time available? (two weeks shooting, six months editing)

Yes the time given to us to is reasonable and hopefully we will be able to accomplish the completion of our film before the deadline. Hopefully there will not be any disturbances to distract us.

5. can you get access/ permission to shoot in your chosen location?

The location we have decided to film in is a public area enabling us to film freely with no permission and this is a great advantage for the group.

6. Would lighting/ sound be an issue on location?

As we will be working in a considerably busy area near a train station and main road , there will be some noises in the background but hopefully we will able to edit the sound.
The area we are filming will be dark and we will be filming at night time , the area also has poor lighting however this is what we want for a dark and scary environment.

7. Are you going to include dialogue?

No, by doing this it will allow the viewer to concentrate more on the on the scenes.

8. Who will be your characters on the screen? are the reliable? will continuity be an issue?

The characters involved in the filming will be two of my group members and my sister and their punctuation will hopefully be reliable in order to include the important feature of continuity.

9. Have you thought of style of credits/ soundtrack?

Yes, the credits will be written in an impact font in the colour on a black background and the films title will be in the colour red signifying its importance .

Evaluation

Overall producing my own film was a very interesting and insightful experience. Helping me to understand the film making industry by practicing it first hand and using the latest technological equipment to develop it.

Problem 2

The area around Turkey street train where we have decided to shoot our film has been temporarily closed and out of bounds to the public because of an incident involving a fatal stabbing :| (*gulp*).


Hopefully it will be open soon in order for us to continue the process of filming.

This has given my group an experience of having an unexpected external problem that can affect the production of a film, all we can try do is overcome it and continue as normal.

Group Discussion 3

My group have made the decision that i will be the camera man , this job entails Directing , learning how to use camera equipment and ensuring that i use a wide range of camera movements, angles and shots.


Corrine and Vicky have accepted to play the roles of the two female victims, this job entails dressing appropriately to fit the mise-en-scene, following instructions from the director and basic acting skills.

A friend of Corrine's had accepted our invitation to be involved with the production of our film and has agreed to play the male villain in our film.

Seven opening credits 2

I found the opening credits of seven very interesting and it introduced the film in a very captivating way.

The credits display a mixture of scenes of the criminal at work , with the credits shown in a wired type of font flashing and shaking possible reflecting the instability and awkwardness of the siutation that the film is about.


I would like to use the technique of showing a mixture of scenes using fast paced shot cuts to show a variety of scenes that could summarize the content of my film without giving away too much to viewer i would like to think of it as preparing the viewer for what they are about too watch.
