i chose it because it has a thrilling appeal to it so it fits with our opening and also it has a urban effect so it fits with ryans part as he will be outside the whole time.

Lesson work:

Now we are starting to look at different fronts. We will be testing the size and colour in this post.
We have been looking at 'font.com' to see all the different possible styles we could have. We have been looking at the hand written style of fronts and one that has appealed to us is the 'righty using left hand' and feel as a group that this is a possible choice. We feel this as it shows a psychotic sate as it is written in messy hand writing.

Lesson work:

So far our editing has gone very well. There has been no real problems with putting everything together- we're on task and working well as a group.

However one small problem was the section with ruth was too short compared to Ryan's filming. We had to balance the time out between the two so that we could have a split screen in sync and make it within the two minute time limit.

The sound is coming along nicely and no problems there.

thoughts on editing

in editing we will be using such things as spilt-screen to show what is happening to both the characters at the same time. Also it shows the two normal things happening like a phone call but each character acts differently. fast switch between shots may be used as it can build suspense which is needed in a thriller. as we edit we will come up with more ideas but for now this is what we have been thinking about.

Editing so far

so far in editing we have cut out the bits we don't want and split the rest into individual shots. we have also captured the film that is the voice over which is the soundtrack.

15 Film Certification

15 –
Suitable only for 15 years
and over
No one younger than 15 may
see a ‘15’ film in a cinema.
No one younger than 15 may
rent or buy a ‘15’ rated
video work.

Discrimination
The work as a whole must not endorse discriminatory
language or behaviour.

Drugs
Drug taking may be shown but the film as a whole must not
promote or encourage drug misuse. The misuse of easily
accessible and highly dangerous substances (for example,
aerosols or solvents) is unlikely to be acceptable.

Horror
Strong threat and menace are permitted unless sadistic
or sexualised.
Imitable behaviour
Dangerous behaviour (for example, hanging, suicide and
self-harming) should not dwell on detail which could be
copied. Easily accessible weapons should not be glamorised.

Language
There may be frequent use of strong language (for example,
‘fuck’). The strongest terms (for example, ‘cunt’) may be
acceptable if justified by the context. Aggressive or repeated
use of the strongest language is unlikely to be acceptable.

Nudity
Nudity may be allowed in a sexual context but without
strong detail. There are no constraints on nudity in a
non-sexual or educational context.

Sex
Sexual activity may be portrayed without strong detail.
There may be strong verbal references to sexual behaviour,
but the strongest references are unlikely to be acceptable
unless justified by context. Works whose primary purpose is
sexual arousal or stimulation are unlikely to be acceptable.
Theme
No theme is prohibited, provided the treatment is
appropriate for 15 year olds.

Violence
Violence may be strong but should not dwell on the infliction
of pain or injury. The strongest gory images are unlikely to
be acceptable. Strong sadistic or sexualised violence is also
unlikely to be acceptable.

There may be detailed verbal references to sexual violence
but any portrayal of sexual violence must be discreet and
have a strong contextual justification.

Micro Plainning

In our sequence we are thinking of using fragmented shots of certain features of our characters faces to leave questions and not to give anything anyway too soon.
At the start we have an idea to use non-diagetic sounds such as noises like birds, wind, footsteps then slowly switching into phone calls building up so eventually its a big layered sound track of calls which could all cut out and leave a single dialing tone. While this is happening the credit are rolling plus the logo of the production company will appear.
Some shots we thought could be interesting and effective are doing E.C.U of objects from each scene e.g close up of pencil pot. On the male character, your eye leads up the character starting from the foot panning up towards the rest of the body.

This is our mood-board that we made to show some of the ideas that we may use into our final story board. Some of the images we may not even incorporate into our story however the pictures are just some simple guide lines making this board a development piece rather than a final board. As one of our members of our group were not present we also didn't want to make any final plans.

Production Logo

This is our idea for a production logo and will be used in our opening sequence, this maybe animated in the later!

Production Logos

Bad Robot compared to other companies are of a less successful production team although they have helped to produce well known TV series such as Lost or in the blockbuster Star Trek. A memorable part of the logo is not the graphics of it but the voice over after it has appeared. Even though the voice is one of a child the films Bad Robot help to produce are aimed at an audience of a more mature age.
Interestingly after we had created our own logo we came across this one which is quite similar since its done in a vector style.













The Pixar logo represents there company by incorporating there animations into the title. When ever someone see's the animated lamp jumping across the screen everyone instantly know that it is Pixar! The lamp is not directly related to animation but maybe the Lamp is a prompt for the viewer the 'look at the piece in a different light'.

Memento Opening Evaluation

the whole sequence is shot in reverse and concentrates on a poloroid photo developing. Subject of the image is a blood stain wall. There are shots concentrating on a bullet and blood stain glasses.
