Depict! Production Diary

October 4th 2012

Today we have decided on what idea we are going to be doing for our 90 second film, we are finalising our idea on a tramp who gets ignored by a business man and then wins the lottery. We are going for a simple idea and we are going to keep the props and locations at a minimum. Next lesson we are going to finalise our idea and start talking about locations and our title for our story.

We have finalised what our idea will be and we have come to a conclusion on what customes we are going to need for our 90 second film, we are going to call our film 'Swapping Shoes'. The general story line is a business man doesnt give a begging tramp money, the business man then loses all his money and a mysterious man gives the tramp 10 million pounds and they are now eachother as the businessman is now begging and the tramp is a multi millionnaire. We have also decided where abouts our location is going to be, next lesson we will be discussing shot types, props, charcacters and how we are going to film it the actual movie.

Today we made a 'shot list' for our 90 second film and we finalised exactly what was going to happen in our film, how its going to be filmed and what camera angles we are going to use. We also started to fill in the storyboard sheets for our film.

Today unfortunatly I wasn't able to help with the work my group was doing as I have hurt my ankle and wasn't able to walk to our filming location, so I stayed behind and updated my blogs.

I had a double lesson today so my group had 2 hours to get some filming done, however we are using actors so we couldnt as they didnt want to do it on a monday morning. After some discussions ma and my group decided to do it outselves and act in the 90 second film as its easier and we all know exactly what we need to do. So today we restared filming our 90 second film with Alex and Louis being the tramp and the business man instead of the two actors we had.

We have finshed our editing and we have also added all the fade in's and fade outs so we have basically finished our 90 second film the last thing we need to do it pick/make some music. I started to fiddle around with garage band and we will make a soundtrack next lesson.

Today we decided we wanted to add a colour effect to our film so we all edited it and gave our opinions we are still trying to make our film as best it can be so we are still playing around with effects however our main focus next lesson is the music for the film.
