NEARLY READY TO FILM

Just a small update for you :)
All that's left to do is our storyboard now, and then our planning is finished, and we're ready to film the product :)

Our Preliminary Task




For the preliminary task, we had to produce a short video demonstrating that we are able to show someone simply opening a door, walking into a room, and sitting down having a conversation with someone. I found the filming part of the task, managable to cope with. But the editing was more of a challenge, as i wasn't very familiar with how to do it, and neither was Katie. But none the less, we had a good try, and managed to do it. Although it took a fair bit longer than the filming itself.

I am pleased with the outcome of the preliminary task, the editing isn't brilliant on it, and there are a few jumpy moments in it, but it was still a good effort for our first attempt.

Further Developed Ideas For The Plot

I thought of the idea of old home videos of both teenagers being played at the beginning of the film when they were little kids. And then flicking to the scene of them sleeping rough. And then making transitions between the home videos, and the present shots of the teenagers. I thought this would be a good idea, as it shows the difference between them as innocent children and then young runaways.

Possible Soundtracks For The Opening




Sweet Disposition seems like a good soundtrack to have played at the beginning of the film because, it helps to set the mood of the film. As it starts of slow, then speeds up, which compliments what's happening in the film, as the teenagers are first shown sleeping rough then running away.

LOCATION HUNTING!! (2)










This location will be used as the old derilict building that the teenagers are running from.

LOCATION HUNTING!!

I've found one of the locations for our film to place in, our ideas of locations were, an old derilict building, a deserted park/forest area, and a dual carriageway.







This will be used as a deserted forested area.

I picked Titanic as my final similar film product, because it also portrays forbidden love.
