Test Shots

These are our test shots of all the different actors we will be using:

TASHA PATEL
Playing the role of Rosie Harvey.
We choose Tasha to play this role as she is a drama student, who enjoys acting this meant that we would have a convincing actor who took the role seriously. Tasha is also a close friend meaning that we knew she would be reliable and not let us down.




MAX BRANDON
we choose to use max as he is a confident, bubbly character that is reliable and up for anything.




Risk Assessment



This is our risk assessment, this is a very important document as we need to be aware of anything that may go wrong, disrupt the shoot or harm the cast or crew.

Call Sheet




This is our call sheet, we will hand this out to our actors so that they know where to be and when, each member of our production team will also have this, so they know where they should be and the numbers are on there so each person can be contacted.

Shoot Schedule




This is our shoot schedule, this is our plan when shooting our short opening. This schedule includes, what time everyone has to be where and what shots will be taken and when.The importance of this is so that our team and actors know what they have to do and when, this will help us stay organised and on track.

Shot List



This is our shot list, this is the order that we will shoot each different shot. This list will help us make sure that we have filmed each shot and not missed any out, this will also help us shot all scene in the most efficient way.

Animatic


This is our animatic, this is a extremely basic idea of what our opening to the film may look like. Using a storyboard images we have created this video, we have placed the photos in order and placed the correct sound effects and music over them this has given us a idea of what the final piece may look like. This task was important as it has given us the go ahead with our idea, if this did not work or didn't look right we would of had to re think our idea.

Parity Remake


This is our parity re-make, in order to experiment a bit more with the cameras and practice all the skills we have learnt we re made another groups film openeing. This was an important task as it gave us one last practice with the cameras, it also helped us practice our editing skills. In order to get the interesting effects on parity we colour graded it and added a jumpy effect. overall this was a interesting opening to make and we hope ours will come out as good as this or even better!

Recces

Location shot of nighttime london
Another location shot of sunrise london


This part of london is very edgy, perfect for a thriller film, the couple will be shown to walk under the bridge.
We will film our couple form the bridge walking on the street , this will give a good vantage point as we will hopefully get some natural extras.


This is our 1st choice to film the phone-booth scene, it is outside One Aldwych Hotel in london, it is a quiet location perfect for filming.
