Comtumes and Props

Here are some images we are going to use as our props and costumes.
They are not going to be these exact ones but hopefully very similar!!
I got this photos from the internet.

 Dress for the dead girl.

Black eye make up for the dead girl.

Photo frame that shows the past.

                      A heart necklace for the dead girl to wear.

These are only a few props and costumes i have to look around and get some more.






Preparation For Filming

Today Jess and i (because Grace wasn't in)(she's ill) sorted out when we were free so we could see when and where we could start filming.
We have text Grace to see when she is also free and decided that we are going to start filming asap!!!
Unfortunately this is only until Thursday 26th March :( :(. 
Anyway we have to ask my friend Hayley Gooding when she is free hopefully on the same day, so we can get a move on with our filming.
We have to start filming the park scene first because we have to get a snap shot from it which later on fits into the picture frame.
Next we are planning on shooting the church scene which is located near Jess's house which is in Collier Row.
Before we start filming on Thursday 2nd April we need to buy the frame prop and also prosess a snap shot out of the park scene.
On the run up to our filming dates we are going to discuss the costumes that our "soon to be film stars" are going to wear.

Our Animatic

This is our storyboard, which places in order the shots we are going to use in our thriller project. We have roughly sketched out each shot and then on the right, made notes on the type of shot we plan to use, and the sound which will be included along with the shots.





Here is our animatic that we have produced.
Hope you enjoy!!!!!




This is our completed version on our animatic.
On Tuesday 17th March we uploaded the sketches of each individual shots from our storyboard.
We bluetoothed the pictures over from Grace's phone onto imovie.
Today we put together the individual shots in a moving sequence.
After this we posted it on youtube, then embedded it on here!!

Preliminary Task





We have now edited all of our camera shots and put it into order.
I think that it looks really good, well apart from my bad acting!!! HAHAHAHA!!!
We added some music to the opening and ending to give it a better effect, which i now see that it makes it more comical.
We have also uploaded it onto youtube but we are having a bit of difficulty putting it onto our blogs.  

Preliminary Task

Grace and i have been going through some ideas for our preliminary task and we first came up with an idea for two people to meet up and talk about a potential murder. The two talk about it but do not mention any detail so really you could relate it to anything, this giving it suspense which would draw the viewer in more.

This did not work as we ran of things to say without giving away what actually happened, so we changed the idea to a random discussion between Grace and i. We also wanted to add comedy to it so we did this in the opening.

4 down to 3

It is sad to see that one of our group members (Rebecca Saberton) has left sixthform and is not in our group anymore.
But do not worry there is still me, Grace and Jess ie; "The Three Amegos" :D
We have not yet decided on all the shots or location!

it starts off with a shot looking at the sky which then pans down to a killer either swinging on a swing or sitting on a bench in a park.(with church in view) Killer is looking down at a happy picture which happened in the past of them having fun and mucking around with friends.

Graphic match to when it actually happened and you see them having fun. Shot goes back to killer on the bench or swing then over over-shoulder shot to show picture still moving but then drops and cracks. As the frame drops maybe the motion will be slow. Close-up of cracked picture then mid-shot of killer on bench or swing we see a dead girl standing behind them. Killer gets up and turns to look behind them. See expression on both faces, different shots. Killer goes to run away.

Point-of-view shot to see girl has reappeared in front of killer. Close up of her eery smile. Same shot of killers horrified eyes. POV again of girl in front leaping at camera/killer.

Pitch black screen and all you can hear is the scream of the killer and then more screams and then up comes the title of the movie 'R3v3ng3'.

We have been discussing different shots and locations for this. We have yet to decide what they are going to be. We have got our main character (dead girl) and still deciding on other characters. Also we are thinking of using a birds eye view to look down at the killer and the dead girl just before we see the eyes and mouth.

Taaa daaa!!!

Here is the last scene from the blair witch project!
I find that it is the most effective part of the movie. This is because it shows terror of the two students and gives off a very eery atmosphere.
Hope you enjoy!!!!!!
