Roles Within The Group

In the group we have all been allocated 3 different responsibilities that we will have to make sure we do. Some responsibilities were easy to give to certain people (Grant as the Location Researcher as it was his idea to film on a cliff) but most of the others were just randomly given so we do not know how everyone will take to there roles in the group.

Shooting Schedule

Shooting Schedule

This is the shooting schedule for our film these include the different locations, date and the actors we will need. (Tom has been changed to Joe) Shooting schedules are useful as they give the actors notice of when we need them to act so they know when we need them so that they do not make any plans for them dates.

This is the animatic of our film. An animatic is a basic collection of pictures made into a film to see how long our final film will be. We can also add music to the animatic to see how it would work in our final film. This is useful as we can sort the music out before we have made the film and as music is one of the main conventions of thriller films it is important to sort it out as soon as possible.

StoryBoard

Finished Storyboard

This is the story board for our film. With this we can see the different camera shots that we need to use. Using both this and the script while we are filming, we can make the film as accurate to our idea as we can.

Props Research

For our film we will need some props mostly we need a camera and a scrap book that joe can use to put all of his photos.

Camera
For the camera, Joe can either have an old professional camera so it looks as if he wants to be a photographer when he is older.

He could have different kinds of lenses and flashes so it's as if he has puts lots of money into buying these specialist cameras but this camera would be hard to find unless we know somebody who has this type of camera.

Or we can have him using a normal type of camera that most family will have this cameras quite cheap so it would be easy to find a camera like this, as we can just borrow one off somebody's parents.

Notebook
Joe will need a photo album for him to be ripping out the photos. We could get a normal photo album but for Joe to rip apart the album that we have paid for then that might be a waste of money. So I thought that we could just buy a scrapbook, stick in the photos and decorate the cover. This won't cost as much as a proper album and it's will look just as good.

Costume Research

There is not a lot of costume research to be done for our film. It does not have any specific requirements as to what people would wear. In the majority of the scenes throughout the film, all 3 characters should just wear casual everyday clothing that they might go to work/sixth form in, or just walking around the streets with their friends in.

So for our film we are leaving the majority of the clothes to the actors discretion, however we are providing certain bits of clothing:

We will provide some of the actors with Jackets, as we are filming on different days, they may not necessarily wear the same clothes on each day. So to make the film work and make sure they are wearing the same clothes when they should be, we are providing them with jackets so they can wear it on each filming day.

The only proper costume requirement is a Hoodie for Joe, he needs to wear a hood to show his depression and give him more of a stalker look. We will just use a black Hoodie for this, as it is easy to obtain and represents the scenes perfectly. At the start Joe will be wearing more casual non hooded clothing to show his innocence, then when he evolves into this stalker persona he will be wearing a black Hoodie, the black to represent the evil side of him. A good example of the Hoodie we will be using is this one.

After deciding what costumes our characters are going to need, we are going to research some locations where to film the different scenes in our film.

Location Research

Location Research on Prezi

This is the research for our locations so that we can decide what our sets for the film will look like.

Script

Script

From our treatment we have wrote a script for our actors to have their lines. We wrote the script using Final Draft AV as this gives the script a professional look.
