Film idea presentation
On this you can see everything that we have planned for our film opening, although a lot is repeated. It shows our main ideas and themes, these ideas were based around leahs film opening idea .It shows everything that we have arranged and planned for the story line.
Mood board
This is a mood board of our film inspirations. Looking from the film posters you can see they all are mysterious and have the same genre of mystery/crime. These films all have murders or some type of criminal case, which links to our film idea, of a girl being murdered and then no one knowing who has done it.

5/11/16-We edited our film and made some improvements
On this day we were put into our groups, in my group was
Leah and Beth. We had to write down a few film opening ideas to do with the
story line and genre. Here are my ideas that I presented as a mind map.
1)cliff hanger/twist at the end
2)internet-cyber bullying/online stalker
3)missing peoples case
I’ve realised that all these are similar ideas to do with mystery,
like the internet idea leaves you thinking who is behind the computer screen,
and a missing persons case it is like where is the person? Was this person
taken?
08/11/16-Tuesday
On this day we had to come up with our ideas and make
something good to present them on to for the rest of our groups.
09/11/16-Wednesday
On this day we presented our film ideas to each other and
picked the best film opening idea that we agreed on. We picked Leahs idea
because it was very successful in the plot, and we also thought it would be easier to film. We had also started planning and adding things on to the story
plot.

the class gave us some ideas that we could develop or ask. These are some feedback we got:- a lot of enigma code through out(makes the reader want to watch more)
- very clear genre/themes
- might be to hard to imitate a funeral
- the ex boyfriend is the most interesting character because people want to know how the is involved.

We have looked at some other students film openings and we have seen what looks good and what does not work and then marked them out of 60. I have briefly pointed out a few points that have worked well and not.
Michael
In this film opening there is some very good shots altogether like the way the camera is still and does not shake, especially when it pans across the room. It looks very professional, in the way it is presented like the text in it matched with the story line and the font was simple. Overall the storyline was a bit boring and could have some better acting, to make it more realistic. Overall I gave this a mark of 41/60.
A schools nightmare
In this you can see that's the editing really made this film opening stand out. The whole scene was darkened and made more spooky when the boy is hit, it really sets the stage. There is so many good shots and it looks very professional. I gave this a mark of 45/60.
Luna
I think the sound used in this is amazing, the text matches the whole film idea, and is standing out, like the story line which was very good and made sense. Overall I would give this film opening 47/60 marks. I liked the way this film opening was very similar to other films so you could see where some of the inspiration came from.

Prelim task
The fright before Christmas
our preliminary evaluation I done on a slideshare.
This is our final draft for the prelim
Monday, 3 October 2016
Juno
This is our story board list for the film opening of Juno. Here we have included the timings of each shot and what is happening.
Props: Our props that we need is a red jumper, a milk carton.
Location: Our main location is outside the school near the bushes, outside the shops because of the fence and the shop corner. We are also going to places near trees so we can have a leafy pavement. Most of it will be shot on Duffield Road.
The clip:
The filming of my task was done quite well, it was hard to keep up with the certain timings,thats why our story boards helped us. The filming is very similar to this juno clip. The filming is shook sometimes that's why we should of used a tripod because just us holding the camera wasn't steady enough.
Our story board was accurate but it didn't include certain bits like camera slides and flips, that's why near the end of the clip I included it as an effect. In our story board it has basic drawings but gives a lot of detail and an idea. Also the timings were the main help here because we needed to know when to end the clip and when to do certain movements. Through out the whole thing we used the story board and watched the video frequently so we could match the scenes up.
In our group we had strengths in working as a team and coming up with ideas and planning things out. Although our weaknesses was not using the tripod, and getting the camera angles of some shots during this short clip.
I got all the footage that I needed to complete the film as good as possible ,but I had a few clips that could of been improved like the end part outside the building-there was a front and side view of the shop as juno in the film walks down the side, but we done it just as a front view. We also could of used a guitar and other good props but that's what I will improve on next time.
Being able to edit allows me to correct some mistakes, by making clips longer by slowing it down. On adobe I learnt how to slow and reverse clips and well as flip the camera shot. Like in one of the shots we had to flip the clip because we filmed it the wrong way, but it looks good still. Overall I have learnt how to do most things on adobe to help with further productions.

In the next production I will still use the story boards a lot and plan out the timings as well as a good use of available props. I learnt how to use adobe and edit clips very good and how to create certain effects like zoom and slide along etc. and these being used allows certain effect to be given to the watcher. I like how the timings of the clips are in sync like when the camera moves up, it moves at exactly the same time in most places.
