Re-shooting

I have just re-shot some scenes, and I couldn't get hold of my original characters, so I had an alternative, because I wasn't going got let that hold me back. I had to use my initiative and use somebody else to step in. I think it worked.

Filming

I had to re-shoot some of my scenes, so I did a few shots on Thursday 25th and I will do a few more today 28th November to bring it to an end. The reason I re-shot was because when I had feedback, I was told my scenes were too dark and that I should put a lot more light in the shots. I took this feedback and amended my opening sequence.

List of shots that I will take

Medium shots
Extreme close ups
Close ups
Birds eye view

Looking up different production company logo's



This production logo has been around for a very long time and I seem to see it a lot. I like the range of colours used and the background music, I think it is appropriate. I am sure they are a well respected in the industry and make a lot of money.


Universal has a great background music and it fit with the mise-on-scene. I like the lighting used and the camera angles are very effective.



I remember watching a Disney film when I was younger, and I liked this production company logo. I liked the lighting and the colours. This production company logo has been around for a long time.

I love this picture. This is the type of outfit that my character would wear.
Another evil and vindictive photo.
I think this facial expression shows evil and vindictive. The type of character I will try to create.
Great picture; I think this could be a thriller genre.
Wow!
I think red lipstick really brings the audience in. And this gives her a character that everyone can get.

Audience and Location

The location that I have decided to do my film opening in is my house. I think this would be suitable because I can use it when ever I please, and I can use it in which ever way I want. I also feel I would be most comfortable at home.

My film opening will be for 18 and overs because I feel like the storyline wouldn't be suitable for any age younger than that. So it will be appealing to older teenagers and those in their early 20's. I think this age group would find the film more entertaining than people of an older age, because the main character is a young women. People of a young age, I think would be the ones to watch horror films more.

My film opening will give off that the main character is the bad one and this may engage the audience to want to carry on watching. I think the gender that it would attract is both male and female, because both genders would be able to relate to this film, and hopefully find it interesting.

Character Profile

My character has a sexy image that attracts men to her. This is a main reason why she is able to do what she does. Men fall for her easily and always trust her.

She wears a distinctive red lipstick and black clothes, and she knows when she is on to something .
