as a consequence i will keep this blog brief but informative as always
Monday week 3
on the Monday lesson we came together to try and create an action plan , allocating jobs and starting to to come up with ideas for a genre. However doing these thing took a lot longer than expected and i believe this is due to the fact that when working in a time we all have different view on how a portray something we deem as entertaining. we talks about may idea for names for the company :
However we still couldn't decide so we set our self homework for Wednesdays lesson , this was to come up with a logo and logo design each as well as annotate a opening to a film that most embodied our ideas and vision for our opening , mine is shown in the post prior to this one. I annotated the godfather opening using voice thread-which I found to be a very interesting way of presenting an idea. it was fairly easy to use although I cannot say I am a pro at it quite yet. I hope to do some more voice thread annotations of openings to get a hang of using it and also to get a better experience in knowing how to use shots effectively in film-i then made a possible name for the company and a design; I called it salamado production and used a picture of a salamander on it. the reason I did this was because I though of the connotations of a lizard . a lizard is stealthy , is a hunter and can be scary cold and ominous which i believe to be the themes of thriller / deceive films (which where the gene we al decided on ).
week 3 Wednesday
we came together to show what we had made, however we did not come up with a definitive name nor design, although that was a dilemma we did get the ball rolling on the story line. due to the fact we decided on a detective theme/genre we all looked at similar genre opening therefore when it came to talking about it we knew in which direction we where heading, we talked about different character and ideas of how to start the opening this included thinning about time lapses different theorist and codes and sub plots however no definitive story board came out of it but we did as i said get the ball rolling.
we also decided on who is doing what job and what meetings we would have in the holidays:
Script: Charlie
Casting: Fehinti
Locations:Everyone and then pick best location
Sound: Adam
Editing: all of us hope to participate
Admin : Charlie
(when looking for location we said that three things where vital :lighting, sound and space. Due to the fact that when we did out preliminary exercise this is what we found to be the main factor that took away from the professional quallity of our video and many other as media videos as illustrated on youtube. sound must not echo , there must be enough space to you the 180 degree rule effectively and the lighting cannot be to dark nor to bright as this will effect the picture.)
Charlie had written up a risk assessment for use to fill in when finding locations to ensure Safety
