plimenery task


final film







script done by callum west
filming done by charlie hudson, callum west and nathan denny
editing done by charlie hudson

filming and editing process

The first day of filming and editing was very productive. We got a real feel for how everything works on set and what we need to do to prepare. After the first day the rest of the filming process went rather smoothly as we was prepared for what we had to do.
For the rest of the filming process we shot each part at least twice at different camera angles to find the best shot for the scene.















Once we had done filming the scene, i then moved on to edit the different shots together to make it all flow. once we have edited it we save it all to my desktop.



Once we had edited all of our film i then edited every scene together to make up our film, as well as adding the music and title sequences prepared my Callum.












What have you learnt about the technologies form the process of constructing this product?


(this post was done by nathan denny as we had split up the evaluation questions)

In what way does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?




(this question was answered by nathan denny as we split up the evaluation questions)

How did you attract/ address your target audience

How did you attract/ address your target audience.

I feel that we have attracted and addressed our target audience in many different ways. Some of them include the types of shots that we have used in our film as they relate to other films that our audiences would be into. Also, through the way our film is set out, with it starting in the future then going back to the past (non-liner story line).

story board


















This is the story board for our film. It outlines the basic plot of our film and allows you to know what will be happening in our film. this, along with other things such as 25 word pitch, could be put up on 'Kick start' so that people can see what to expect from our film and see if it would be something that they would be interested in and if so, they would be able to help fund it so that Eagle Eye can produce the film.




Who is your main target audience for your product?

Who is your main target audience for your product?

The main target audience of out film would be 25 years old and over, both male and female due to the conflicts in the film.however, it is for more of a mature person due to our non-liner story line and the complex story.


film company


This is our company logo that we have made called Eagle Eye. it is an independent film company that takes its funding from 'kick start' (this is a way to raise money for films that you are making from the money that audiences give you if they like the concept, trailer or idea for your film). 


the upcoming film 'Eagle Eye' is producing is called 'Omnishambles'. it is about a word that had been destroyed due to crossed lovers and a science experiment gone wrong. yet one man wont let go and try s to change what has happened to the life that he used to live. 

props

the props for our film mainly consist of clothing that we use in the film. some of the clothing includes a suit and lab coats (depending on what the scene includes).
















Also in our film we use science equipment (for the lab scene) and an old rusted radio for the first scene.





audience research


This is a question air that we did to find out what sort of films people like. We asked  110 people and our results are shown in the chart.













As you can see mystery, comedy and drama scored the best results out of the question air. out of these 3 mystery scored the best of who our target audience is. This was a good find for us as our film is mainly a mystery/drama genre which means we are on track for hitting our target audiences.


music

Kevin Mcleod is a musician that makes copyright free music and post them on you tube because it was copyright free it was an obvious choice to use some of his music in our film.

This is an example of some of his music:

 

film script


Script
Scene 1 setup
The room is a large office. The table is round. There are two chairs. The lighting is bright. Both characters are seated. There is little to no background noise.

Morgan: so will you be continuing your relationship with Mrs. Natalie?

The camera then zooms in close to Leo’s eye and a tunnel effect transition plays displaying that we are in fact going deep into the inner most thoughts of Leo.

Scene 2 setup:
The scene displays a large empty wasteland. The air is damp. Rubble is littered all over. There are large mounds of mud. A radio is playing. A can is lying on the floor.

Morgan: (walks over to radio and turns it off) (turns as if addressing the can) The world that we knew, we believed it so secure, so concrete. Little did we know that life is far more fragile than any of us could ever have conceived… I remember how it all began.

Scene 3 setup: a girl is seated in a coffee shop. The lighting is bright and welcoming. There are few other customers. The background noise is quite.

Natalie: (walks in door) (bends over and kisses Jade) (sits down and looks at Jade romantically)
Jade: I’m so glad we finally managed to meet up I’ve just been so swamped at work recently I hardly ever get to see you even when we’re at home
Natalie: (disgruntled but not overtly annoyed) Yeah maybe you should take some time off so we can spend a bit more time together.
Jade: I would love to but we’re so close! I mean like a couple of weeks and the cure will be finalized… Forever!
Natalie: I know that but maybe just a day or two off?
Jade: I’ll see…
(Jade’s phone rings)
Jade: right now?
Jade: I’ll see what I can do.
Jade: I’m really sorry, I have to go (genuinely sympathetic) I’ll make it up to you as soon as possible I promise. (Gets up kisses Natalie and leaves)
(Leo bumps Natalie on her way out and comes in to sit next to Natalie)
Leo: Is it ok if I sit here?

Scene 4 setup: The camera is focused on a table. The table has a few scratches and looks well used. Then super imposed images of newspapers about Jade’s upcoming success start traveling across the screen. As each image travels past a newspaper is added to a pile on the table.

Scene 5 set up: Jade and Natalie are in a park. They are walking together hand in hand. There is a bright natural light. Bird song can be heard in the background. The sounds of children playing can also be heard.

Jade: (gets down on one knee) I know we haven’t been on best terms recently what with me being so busy and you taking writing lessons but… well… I was wondering… (looks up smiling) will you marry me? (close up of Natalies shock ridden face)
Natalie: I can’t… I just can’t
(Natalie runs of crying)

Scene 6 setup: The room is a large lab with several tables. There are two other scientists in the background. There is an array of scientific books and equipment scattered around the room. The lighting is dark.

Jade: (working with chemicals)
Morgan: I just came in to let you know that I am very pleased with your progress
Jade: Thank you sir.
Morgan: (exits)
Natalie: (goes over to the window) (camera shows Leo and Natalie together laughing and enjoying themselves) (walks back over to chemicals furious)
Jade: I’m ready to begin the process
Assistant (hands over chemicals)
Jade: (pours in chemicals) I can’t do this (runs out jogging the assistant) (camera shows the concoction fizzing)

The End

(written by Callum west)

Even though we had a script, you can still notice some deviation to this and the actual film. This is because when it came to shooting and editing the film, there where some parts that didn't fit, therefore we had to change bits to make it fit.







shooting schedule


To make sure that we did not fall behind whilst filming our film, we made a filming schedule to follow. It shows who is in the scene, what scene we are filming and where the film is being shot. 




locations

We used many different locations in the shooting of our film. Some of them included Petts Wood FC's football ground, Mr. Weaver's science lab at our school and a cafe called "Krusty corner". We had permission to film on all the sites that we used and we will mention them in the final film so that they get recognition for there help in producing the film.
