On the 13th October, me and my partner had a meeting regarding our first film date. We have arranged that we will film the hardest shot first as it may be more time consuming. This is because it takes a lot more preparation as we need to ask for pupils and teachers permission.
Our idea for this shot is to arrange our sixth form into 3 groups. Each group would walk through the sixth form common room leaving by different exits. We plan for our main actor, Jazz, to stand in the middle of the room on her own. We chose this shot because due to lots of people walking past her, it emphasises her loneliness and how she is isolated at school.
We aim to have three different cameras. One camera we would like to be a high angle looking down on everybody walking past the main actor. This would help clearly show her vulnerability. Another camera we would also like to be a high angle but from a different direction. We will then use a different camera to film a low angle of everybody's feet walking, this would help show how many people there are in contrast to the main actor on her own.
As a team we have discussed that it is vital that this shot is done effectively. This is because we may not be able to get the time for sixth-formers to leave lessons again to help us be involved in our filming. Also, this shot can only be effective if it is done correctly. This is why we will film everything whilst we are setting up and take time to film.
For this shot we believe it is very important to plan it out effectively. In order to do this we have made a shot list of all the shots we would like in that specific scene. Below is our shot list we have made:
We also believe it is a good idea to do a trial run. This is because on the day we know we will have the correct amount of people. this is because if we have too many people it may look too overcrowded and people may focus on the main character in the middle less. However, we also need to ensure we have enough people to emphasise her loneliness.
