3rd Time LUCKY ...

As our thriller was deleted we have had a re-think about our idea. The idea that we came up with was at the beginning we still have the shot of the door but it jumps forward bit by bit and the jumps right back to the beginning and jumps forward but with different angles.

Then we still use the old idea of going into the room when its dark and the going into my eye. Then coming out one of the lower school pupils eyes, then we are still using the piece when they play around but i think that we should change the death as it does not make sense.

Then we changed the end this also has the same effect as the beginning as it jumps forward but this time im moving forward, then the shot goes completely black and then there is a close up of my eyes.

O !

Our coursework has been deleted, we looked back through the tape in our camera but found out that we recorded over some of the clips that we needed for our thriller. We now need to re-film the middle part of our coursework again as we have been given longer for our film to be in.

Health & Safety :)

1- There should be no filming in inappropriate locations.
2- Should check safety of locations e.g. roads.
3- Minimise risk of theft if equipment (know where it is, keep it with you at all times).
4- When filming on location ensure that your teacher or a responsible adult knows where you are and had a telephone number if they need you to return.
5- You should all equipment is working before you go (when the equipment is returned and it is broken then you will be responsible for the damage even if it was like this state before you signed the equipment out)
6- Should ensure you have permission for filming if necessary.
7- You should also film with on other person.
8- You should ensure that you have permission from those that you are filming.

Idea Change !!!

To make our thriller better we came up with a new idea to add to the old idea we had. We will still walk down the corridor and through the door but when the door is pushed open we are going to see me crouching down on the floor. There's also going to be a piece of paper on the floor and you can see that my wrist has been cut. Then you can see on the piece of paper that i have been writing "IT WAS AN ACCIDENT" over and over again but its written in my blood. Then i will look up to the camera, using the old idea the camera will zoom into my eye and then zoom out from the lower school students. this will look like i'm having a flashback of what happened, it will play them playing around and then the death, after this they run towards the camera and split. then it will fade out and fade back to me, the camera will then run backwards and out down the corridor with me chasing it. Finally the door will shut and will leave me up against the door and will leave the hand print in blood on the door.

Second Day FILMING :)

We were now onto another part of the film. This part was the hardest as again we had different views on how to film this section. Also when we started filming we figured out that it was too dark to film, but we feel that this location is perfect for the atmosphere we need to create. The idea that we came out with to solve this problem is we could have a torch hanging from the ceiling so this would create a small light but would keep the darkness that we want.

First Day FILMING :)

We was out filming with the cameras for the first time. Our location was the lower school and it starred 3 pupils from the lower, but first we had to get permission from their parents. After this we started filming, we struggled for the first 10 minutes about an idea how to film it. Then our ideas came together and we are happy with the progress that we are making.
