back to school

Just a quick message to say that lucy and i made loads of progress in yesterdays media lesson!
Firstly we have drawn out our draft storyboard which currently lucy is transferring onto the real thing...well done u! We also conducted the props list and character profiles and now if they agree (fingers crossed) have the actors/actresses to act in the thriller and decided on all of the locations needed to film our production.
So now all we need to do is fill out the shots sheet n then we're ready to start filming! yay!

willow


This is my baby 'willow' hu as u can c is so gona help us get an A :) hehe n will kick arse in the acting skills!

Catch up

Hey every1! havnt posted anything 4 a lil while so thort i'd fill u in on the l8test happenings of our production.
1. We've produced a questionnaire to hand out for our research to find out more about the target audience and the best things to include in our film. these are currently being filled out n we will post the results as as soon as we hav them all bk.
2. Finally decided on our final idea; combining some of the previous ideas of the woman walking the dog and being watched but she picks up an object tht gives her flashbacks into a dark room, pan of the room to see lots of sharp, dangerous objects. unknown person (adds mystery) taking pictures of her, noises fit with editing n then bk to present time when she hears a picture being taken and rustling of the bushes....
Only rough outline as emma or lucy have the actual details tht we wrote out.

Havnt got any finalised ideas for actors yet but i was thinkin of my friend from out of skool so then ppl wont b familiar with her, knowin she jus an actor to make it more realistic, she can also drive which will hope with travel plans to the locations.
Altho we do hav one definite actor....my gawjus baby tht is my dog! willow, the star obviously!
