Choice In Actors


Our Choice In Actors

Our original ideas were that all the group would be in the film. Me and Jay were going to be the two friends that distracts the older brother. Ashley was going to be someone in the background which might be link to the brothers disapearence. The main two characters were Harry and his brother which would be the older brother Jack (Harry) and the younger brother (Harry's brother).
But becasue we have changed most of the shots and some parts of the script. We now only have two characters in our opening sequence which is Harry and his younger brother. We did this becasue it would make more sense with the story to just include these two characters. We also chose those characters becasue it was convenient. We also chose to have a small amount a characters in the opening sequence because it would be easier to film and their will be a less chance of continuity errors.

Final Planning Stage


Final Planning Stage


We all got together and decided to discuss our opening sequence. We then decided to change some of the ideas we had in the opening sequence. We changed the idea of the distraction. The distraction in our original idea was two of 'Jacks' friend meet him in the park and distract him. But we have now decided that there will be a phone call which will distract the character.
We also changed some of the different types of shots. We added more close ups in the opening because we needed to give it a more thriller like theme. We also decided to change parts of the dialogue. This change in our story will mean that we need to change our script, storyboard and shot list.
We will also re film most of the shots in our opening sequence. After that we went through each scene and planned it all out again.

Third Day Of Filming

 Third Day Of Filming 

On the third day of filming we had to finish the rest of the outside shots. We started where we left off, and check the surrounding areas to make sure there wasn't any continuity errors. We went on this day because it was similar weather to when we last went out. We made sure that both main characters were in the same costumes as before to avoid continuity errors.
We found that we were a bit more rushed with this day in filming because Jay forgot to charge the camera meaning we had limited time to film. So we couldn't play anything back and couldn't check the shots we just did.
In this time we finished most of the shots in the ending of our opening sequence. But we still had a few small shots to finish.
