Evidence Of Filming

During the filming we left the camera running so there was evidence that we was filming and creating our opening. 

This shot shows Ryan and Craig discussing about how he should act in the next clip.












This is evidence of all of our raw footage to show that it was us who filmed it. Also that it was all our original ideas. During the video you can see Ryan and Craig and ben discussing how to approach the next shot and if it matches up with out plan.

Evidence Of Editing

the first screen shot shows our first edit of the opening.





we had to adjust the continuity as it was not correct because he was standing still when he should have been walking.




This screen shot shows me erasing part of the clip that we didn’t need anymore.






The continuity wasn’t correct in this shot so we took out this clip and replaced this with a title.





We cut the start of this clip as the continuity as it wasn’t following from the previous clip.





We had to re-order some of the shots so the match on action was correct. we moved the two clips of Billy at the book so they was following on from each other instead of them being at the start and the end of the clip, as there was no way from him to get back to the book.





We added a title showing the directors name. This is the most important name of the film.






We changed the length of the titles from 5 seconds to 3 seconds because they were too long and it increased the time over our target for the film opening.







We moved the titles for the main character from the middle to the top left.






Then we added the name of the second actor which we also moved but this time to the bottom right.






We then added another title named music and the name of the composer of the music, however the music was in a smaller font than the name so the nam stands out to the audience.






This screenshot shows what the title will look like during our film opening.






This shows that we have exported our clip however is it without sound at the moment.

Evidence Of Creating Titles

We stared off by looking at looking at different fonts and different sizes of the titles. This is a very important part of the opening because it shows the people who contributed to the film but may not be on screen. Also it can create an atmosphere in the opening as some fonts would not suit the genre of the film. We tested all sizes, small and bigger fonts to see what ones we thought would create the best atmosphere. We also tested different fonts itself, so different styles of the text. We also had the decision on where on the screen we were going to places the titles. We also looked at what colour would be best suited for our opening and will go well with the background colour.

This is the editing of us adding in sound.



This is some screenshots of us finding a sound effects and music to use in our opening.







This is us adding in the sound effect.




This is after the sound has been adding in. We are then using the colour balance effect to change the colour of the image to a red.


This is then what it looks like with the red effect.

Evidence: Our First Rough Edit

This is the rough edit of ‘The Revenge’. It is currently 2 minutes 6 seconds long, the finish product needs to be 2 minutes but when we’ve made the final edited sharper it should drop to about 1 minute 50 seconds and with the extra seconds we can add titles.

Evidence Of Our RAW Footage

This is all of the footage that we took whilst filming the opening 2 minutes of our horror film. There is also footage in here of us in the classroom practising with he camera, and learning how the camera works.

Construction :Film Schedule

A filming schedule is a plan of what dates/times and locations your cast and crew will be doing the filming part of the production in addition to how many scenes or shots you're aiming to shoot in the time frame you have set. It is also important to make note of what cast member are needed for different scenes and what crew is required for each day which ensures that everybody knows when they are needed. This will make the filming process a lot easier for us as we will have set an organised plan.

Construction : Producing A Shot List

The reason for shot listing is because you need to have an idea of what is going to happen within your opening and the order in which the shots happens. Shot listing allows you as a group to make choices about what is going to be done and when it is going to be filmed, so it can be effective for our target audience which is teenagers. 

Construction : Considering Mise-en-scene - Costume And Props

Mise-en-scene is literally the 'what is in the shot' and it is everything that appears on the screen in a single frame. The advantage of this is to help the audience decode what is going on in the specific scene.

The following image is from the film 'The Woman in Black':

The 'Mise-en-scene" in this scene would be the dull, shadowy lighting, the old fashioned children toys in the dark corners in the room, as if they were exiled from the scene and the lack of colour.

When decoded by the audience, they get an impression that the nursery is a lonely room and, judging by the spider webs on the window, has not been occupied in a very long time. This is an excellent scene for a horror film because it brings tension as to the thought of a haunted house, bearing in mind it was locked from the inside.

For our scene we will be using a range of props including some small, workshop tools, a piece of paper with writing on, pictures of the old bullies in his life and a board with the proposed plan of action on it. The tools will give the realisation to members of a middle or even lower-class society that anyone is capable of inflicting danger to others. The plans on the board will show that this was planned and the sheers size and detail will give little doubt to the result of this act of terror.

The costume Billy (the main character) will wear consists of all black, hoodie, gloves, tracksuit bottoms and black trainers. The all black image will give the main character a mysterious and creepy look adding to the suspense the opening brings to the viewers. We will film our opening in daylight.



Costume
Craig (Billy) will be wearing these type of clothes. Skinny tracksuit bottoms and a all black hoodie. These clothing are suitable for our film as we don’t want any of the clothing to stand out, we just want to plain so they can focus more on what's going on not what he’s wearing.

   

The props 
In the opening to our film we will use some props such as this note pad to create the effect that Billy is creating a plan and that it makes sense to the audience who watch the clip. We also used a hammer and two petrol cans. They are essential for our opening as we are trying to set a feeling of fear this props will create this feeling.
