Entry 7

When filming our shots, we did not film in the order that our storyboard was set out. This was due to the fact that when we had wanted to film the boys, they were not playing football that day so we focused on all the shots that included Isabel and available extras.

In doing this, that meant that when it came onto editing, we would have to cut and paste the shots in the order that we had intended on our storyboard.

We intend on using effects such as wipe-outs or dream clouds to create the humour needed for our teen comedy opening.

Entry 2

In order to prepare for our filimg, we had to get permission from the head of 6th form and those that we wanted to use as extra's for our film opening. In doing this, we were successful so filming was not a problem.
Alternatively, we were not to sure about the weather being reliable on the days that we wanted to film the boys playing football outside on the field.
As a group, we had decided, if the weather was not reliable, then we would have to film the boys playing football in the sports hall.
This would insure that we would get our filming done on time.

Entry 6

Just before the half term holiday, we had started to film different shots of our film opening for Isabel.
The shots that were sucessful were the establishing shots of the character Isabel. This consisted with a panning shot starting with the work up of Isabels shoes. The camera then gradually worked it way up to her face. This showed the type of character that Isabel was by her dress sense.
We then focused on the lockers and young people that were around who were observing Isabel. The way in which the camera focuses on the group of girls and the comments passed about Isabel, shows that these girls are popular.

This included, getting extra's form around the 6th form to help create a college environment. We had filmed all the shots from our storyboard apart from the boys playing football. This was because football had been cancelled on that day.

Entry 5

Our location is situated within our sixthform building St Martins, this was convinent for all of us as we all attend the same sixthform. We kept the main actors within the group so that we didn't have to rely on alot of people, but some of the boys from the sixthform will be taking part as we need them for the football scene. We won't need any props as the film doesn't require any, we've sorted out costume for the main characters and the extras can wear what ever they would wear to college on a normal day.

Enrty 3+4

Our first pitch was for Don't Believe The Hype but as it wasn't practical or viable for us to do, we change it back to our original idea which was Isabel. Due to the fact that we was going to work with people outside of college, we were unsure about their timetables and whether they were able to commit. Due to this we believed that working with people within our group would be more realistic with completing the work by our deadline, as we see each on a day to day basis.

As we presented our first idea in the form of a power point presentation, we were given positive criticism by miss and the class on how to we could improve our idea. Some of the criticisms were on different ranges of shots, the characters purpose within the scene, the purpose of the clothes the characters were going to wear and the credits of shared roles within the group.
