Production meeting 3

In this production meeting we filmed put the rough copy. we also talked about different ideas for our final idea. Due to this we was able to film we some of our idea.

During this meeting we took pictures to show what we were doing.

Final idea for thriller

As our final idea we chose to go with the idea where there are two best friends that go to school and one of the friends has turned to the use of drugs and the girl's friend is trying all the ways she can think of to her help her but in the end it doesn't take a good ending. This is because one of the friends ends up owning money to the drug dealer and can not pay him back. 

We decided to go with this idea because its more to do with a thriller and we all agreed on this in our second production.

Production meeting 2

This me and my team's second production meeting where we talked about what to add unto our shot. We discussed how to create more suspense and tension in this thriller as it has to do with secrets and the person finding out about it goes missing, it becomes a mystery. 

Audience Research On Three Initial Ideas

On this idea this audience thought that it was a good idea but doesn't meet the brief and the task that we had to do.  We should also try to make it more with a plot and to show that its a thriller. -Stefan Sarkodie

 

This is a good idea you should combine this idea with the third idea to make it a really good thriller and it looks like it will have tense moments that will create a good atmosphere to the audience. Dennis Vandi 

Three initial ideas for thriller

FIRST IDEA

Our first idea was to have a drug scene where two of our actors. This climax for this story would be that two friends need money and they are not having any luck getting jobs and their parents are not financial  stable. So because of this reason they decided  to turn to the use of drugs. They met a girl that gave them a free sample and it made them hooked on the drugs so they know starting selling drugs to make money for themselves.

SECOND IDEA

Our second idea would be that two friends were best friends then one of the girls got herself caught up in mess that she couldn't get out off and she owed people money. So for her to get out of this she started doing drugs and then she her friend found out what she was doing and didn't approve of it so she thought she would speak to someone about it instead she found out what she was doing they had a big fight and it doesn't end so well. 

THIRD IDEA 

Our third idea would be that one of the girls was secretly crazy and she didn't want anyone to be close to her best friend so every time that someone would get close she would go on a mad rage and kill them. The best friend finds out what she is doing and is scared that she is going to be next so she tries everything to get away from her , but she keeps coming back. 

Production meeting 1

Preliminary Task & Evaluation

In this course work thriller we told a story about how a girl who owes money to a woman is being chased down by her because she isn't able to pay her back which resulted in her death.



This gif here shows the match on match action with her opening the door on the outside and shows her going inside

This gif here shows the shot/ reverse shot which is used for conversations or arguments between two characters and is very effective as it shows the emotions of both characters as they both talk.

This gif here shows the 180 degree rule bring intact and not being broken. We see both characters on the same sides of the character not being moved from their previous position therefore the audience do not get confused. 

This gif shows the eye line match. Where it shows the message on the phone then cuts to her looking at the message on the phone.



I think that we used and followed all the techniques that we could and i do not see anything wrong with the work.

The positives about this is that we were able to include all the editing techniques that were told to which is the main priority of this coursework. 

However what we could have done to improve this course work is the camera work that was done, other than that I think we did a good work seen as this is the first time

Film Noir

Film Noir

Film Noir is the term given by French film critics to a group of films made in Hollywood from 1941 to 1958.


These characterized their pessimistic, dark themes that show the darker side of human nature.

They are filmed using low key lighting to give the film hard, sharp look with strong areas of contrast between light and dark.

Lightning is used to create atmosphere in these extracts:

This is an extract from Farewell my lovely
The lightning used here is low-key lightning and we can see shadows on the wall and silhouettes.

This is an extract from The Big Combo 
The lightning used here is very low so they used low key lighting in this scene. since this was a low budget they didn't have enough money to get what they wanted so instead of an airport they used a car park and instead of an airplane they used an off screen sound of an airplane and flashing lights to cause the illusion that there was an actual plane in the scene when there wasn't. So lightning is a very powerful tool in the film industry and can be used for a lot of things.

The Art Of The Title

I used this because it is a very creative and unique way of opening a film which no other films have done or even if it has been done before, at least no to this standard. I like the way this is edited with Deadpool beating up the criminals whilst they are frozen in time. He seems to be having the time of his life, even through the debris and blood splashing around him, what makes it even more interesting is the fact that Deadpool has the time to communicate with the audience whilst in a brutal fight. He says funny things which makes it more engaging for the audience. This is certainly a thought out opening sequence of a film.

Title Sequences

The production company of panic room is Columbia, owned by Sony Pictures Entertainment. The title ident became popular as Columbia( Sony Pictures is a part of the big six in Hollywood Studios)





The production team of the girl with the dragon tattoo was also produced by Sony but they used an ident not recognised by the audience as this was the first film Sony had produced.







The production team of this film was Newline Cinema, which is owned by Time Warner which is also popular as it counts as one of the big six studios. We see the title through a short footage which is the first thing shown in the trailer. The title "panic room" gives viewers an idea of the genre that the film will portray because panicking is a negative emotion.

THE PURPOSE OF STUDIO IDENTS

 Ident is designed to identify a particular studio. It is the the logo. it needs to be memorable and easy for the audience to recognise.

The purpose of it is that it is designed to give you some form of announcement as to watch program or channel you are on 

Re branding so the channel can keep up to date.

An indent is a moving image so it makes it visually stimulating so you can identify what the narrator is talking about.
