Screening

This is a photo from our screening that we did, we held it in the media room as Robert clack lower site, we showed this to some of our classmates, as shown above. You can see their comments on the audience feedback post.

Initial ideas

This is the picture of the initial ideas that we had at the beginning of planning what film we were going to make, Gone is in the middle and that was our main idea that we had, but we made other ideas to see if we could come up with any better ideas. 

Introducing our group

This is our group, in our group there are 4 members, Barbara, Ausrine, Ross and myself





Barbara is bottom left, Ausrine is top left, Ross is bottom right and I am top Right. 

First Draft


Ident Designing/Making

We wanted our ident to be interesting and look like a big bang. So we thought to do an explosion.

However, a still picture wasn't very good and typical ident's have explosions so we had to change our idea. We then thought of using a quick gif of a supernova. 




This was the gif we used as it didn't lag like the other gifs and it was simple. We had to give it a name (production company) so we thought of the 'NOVA PRODUCTIONS'. We also put low music over it as the music goes over the ident and the start of the film. This can be seen in the first draft.

To put the name of the production in Ross and Michael had to use Photoshop and add the text in.

With these steps they could set the colour, font and size of  the text.

Title sequence : Designing/Making

Designing/Making:Title Sequence

I was in charge of creating the title sequences. During this process, I learnt where to get the screen for the names and how to use them. As per usual, the title sequence had to follow the general order of names. 

After the IDENT use a FADE IN. The titles should then be in the following order:

(1) 'Your Production Company' Presents (NOVA PRODUCTIONS)
(2) A Film by 'One name - usually the director' (Ausrine Blazeviciute)
(3) Starring or With (Barbara)
(4) Male star (Ross)
(5) Female star or other way round (male-Michael)
(6) Title of film - or could be at the end (At end)
(7) Also starring - 2/3/names - each on separate title (-)
(8) Then 3/4/5 of the following - you choose - each on seperate title
-Editing (Michael)
-Music (Barbara)
-Cinematography or Director of Photography (Ausrine)
-Casting
-Set Designer
-Costume Designer
-Script (Ross)
(9) Then Producer(s) - can be more than one (Ross)
(10) Always finish with Director - one name, usually the same as A Film By ...(Ausrine)
(11) Could put title here (GONE)
(12) Finish with a fade out & fade music out

This is where the first flashback will be filmed.

This will be the area where will be filming the chase scene. It will have to be in an abandoned place where no one could arrive to save Michael. The alley was a great idea although it didn't really look as abandoned as this was but it still fit.

To fit in with the abandoned look we also had to film in an abandoned room. There was an abandoned looking room at the back of the drama studio which we used.
This wasn't the exact room. However, this kind of looked like it but it was darker. Also, we could've added more light and took some away as there were numerous switches that you could press.
