<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">We decided to use a news report instead of music because it meant that we were able to subliminally add messages into the opening sequence in a short amount of time. Although the audience doesn't know anyway in which the criminal and the girl in our sequence are linked, the enigma caused by his mention suggests that she is in danger. </span></span></div>Latymer Media 2010http://www.blogger.com/profile/12158812812118861790noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-512052492545600867.post-43943372366566664602011-03-25T03:30:00.000-07:002011-03-25T03:30:18.299-07:00Shot list and Shot log<div style="text-align: left;"></div><div style="text-align: left;">This is a rough shot list we made when planning our shoot before writing it up onto an organised shot list.

<br />
We have a primary audience of teens/young adults (16-24), both male and female. We attract them to our film as our protagonists are teen aged and are presented in a positive light - they are strong and independant. As the thriller genre typically attracts more of a male audience, we felt that we needed to have strong female characters. So our hero's sidekick Charlotte, a girl, is strong-minded, brave, helpful and reliable.<br />
<br />
Our secondary audience consists of adults who are fans of the thriller genre, and who are familiar with similar films such as Taken or The Dark Knight.Latymer Media 2010http://www.blogger.com/profile/12158812812118861790noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-512052492545600867.post-64118198072861750612011-03-23T10:44:00.000-07:002011-03-23T10:44:49.922-07:00Narrative Theory<strong>How is our plot line effective?</strong><br />
<br />
<u>Todorov's theory</u><br />
<br />
Our narrative begins with an equilibrium - Dani is safe, at home, leading a normal life with her boyfriend.<br />
There is a sudden diruption - she is kidnapped during a short blackout<br />
Problems are solved throughout the film - Josh and Charlotte fight to save Dani<br />
Equilibrium is restored - Josh dies, the baddies leave Charotte and Dani when they escape, and they return to normal (although altered) life.<br />
<br />
<u>Propp's character theory</u><br />
<br />
The 8 character roles:<br />
<br />
<strong>THE VILLAINS -</strong> The corrupt businessmen<br />
<br />
<strong>THE HERO - </strong>Josh<br />
<br />
<strong>THE DONOR -</strong> The escaped prisoner who leaves clues to Dani's wherabouts<br />
<br />
<strong>THE HELPER - </strong>Charlotte<br />
<br />
<strong>THE PRINCESS / VICTIM - </strong>Dani<br />
<br />
<strong>HER FATHER - </strong>Dani's dad<br />
<br />
<strong>THE DISPATCHER - </strong>Josh's father, who causes the dispute between the businessmen and Josh<br />
<br />
<strong>THE FALSE HERO -</strong> We do not have a false hero in our story<br />
<br />
<u>Levi-Struass's Theory of Opposites</u><br />
<br />
Some binary opposites in our narrative:<br />
<br />
Good/ Bad<br />
Josh / Corrupt businessmen<br />
Innocent girl (Dani)/ Corrupt men<br />
Teens/ AdultsLatymer Media 2010http://www.blogger.com/profile/12158812812118861790noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-512052492545600867.post-58082921570278082192011-03-23T03:18:00.000-07:002011-04-06T09:45:06.629-07:00Theory - Barthe's Codes<strong><u>Barthes Five Codes</u></strong><br />
<br />
<u>ENIGMA CODE:</u><br />
<br />
Our opening contained a kidnapping, which played on Barthes enigma code, as it occurred during a blackout, which leaves the audience uninformed. It provides a mystery that draws the audience in and poses questions, causing the audience to become intruiged.<br />
<br />
<u>ACTION CODE:</u><br />
<br />
In our opening, the boyfriend arriving at the location of the kidnapping could be considered to follow Barthes action code, as the audience has to wait to see what he will do. We don't get to see anything beyond the room. The suspense is created by the action, rather than the audiences desire to have mysteries explained.<br />
<br />
<u>SEMIOTIC CODE:</u><br />
<br />
Within our opening, there aren't many signifier's for this code but we have an establishing shot of the road outside which shows a very British, average household, which suggests the film will have a realistic, gritty feel to it, and could represent a serious, dramatic theme due to the conventions of films set in the streets of London.<br />
<br />
<u>CULTURAL CODE & SYMBOLIC CODE:</u><br />
<u><br />
</u><br />
The only place where the cultural code appears in our opening, is when Dani carries the bottles of WKD alcohol down the stairs before putting it into the fridge. The alcohol is a cultural substance, depending on age/location. We also use the symbolic code as we only hear Dani on the phone to her Dad, and with no sign of the mother the audience is left wondering if the Mother in the family has left/gotten a divorce/died? The voiceover can also be a symbolic code as the audience doesn't know the relevance the prison escapee has to the storyline.Latymer Media 2010http://www.blogger.com/profile/12158812812118861790noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-512052492545600867.post-90951000445910549982011-03-23T03:17:00.001-07:002011-04-04T10:27:23.253-07:00Theory - Semiotics in our opening sceneIn order to hint at what is to come, we used visual and auditory signs:<br />
<br />
- We used clear, bright lighting at the beginning of our sequence to symbolise lightheartedness and safety.<br />
- However, after the black out and kidnap, the scene becomes darker to symbolise the forthcoming danger.<br />
- Dani wears light clothes to symbolise her innocence<br />
- Josh wears dark clothes to suggests that he is tougher<br />
- The news report that we hear mentions an escaped prisoner, which links to the kidnap<br />
- The low bass music that we hear at the end of the sequence suggests danger and doomLatymer Media 2010http://www.blogger.com/profile/12158812812118861790noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-512052492545600867.post-39329770230665241342011-03-12T04:07:00.000-08:002011-04-06T23:38:39.801-07:00Sound<span style="font-family: inherit;">We decided we wanted a song playing from a radio in our opening, and the themes we wanted it to connote were:</span><br />
<ul><li><span style="font-family: inherit;">Romance</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">Rebellion</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">Horror</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">Disturbance</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">Sex</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">Mainstream</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">Familiarity with the audience</span></li>
</ul><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"> After searching on the internet we managed to come up with a few suggestions for the song:</span><br />
<ul><li><span style="font-family: inherit;">Paramore - Playing God</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">Mystery Jets - Half in Love With Elizabeth</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">The Script - We Cry</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">The Fray - You Found Me</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">Nickelback - Hero</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: inherit;">The Macabees - Toothpaste Kisses</span></li>
</ul><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/8SJmWSWQgdM" title="YouTube video player" width="520"></iframe><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Eventually we decided to use Toothpaste Kisses in the middle section of our opening, whilst the radio was on, but we used a score from <em>Soundtrack Pro</em> to create a spooky atmosphere in the beginning and ending of the opening. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><strong>However, after testing the song out in our opening, we realised it didn't fit the theme and we changed the middle song to a voiceover. We recorded the voiceover on a Mac computer, using Final Cut. </strong></span><br />
<br />
<u>The news report:</u><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">"Earlier today it was reported that Keith Roberts, recently convicted of murdering Sarah Walsh in his north <city w:st="on">London</city> home, has escaped while being transferred from Coldingley prison in <place w:st="on">Surrey</place> to Castington in Northumberland. He was last sighted boarding a train heading for <city w:st="on"><place w:st="on">London</place></city> on the 16<sup>th</sup> of March. If you think you have any information regarding Roberts’ whereabouts call the <city w:st="on"><place w:st="on">London</place></city> crime stoppers hotline on 0800 555….."</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">We decided to use a news report instead of music because it meant that we were able to subliminally add messages into the opening sequence in a short amount of time. Although the audience doesn't know any way in which the criminal and the girl in our sequence are linked, the enigma caused by his mention suggests that she is in danger. </span></div>Latymer Media 2010http://www.blogger.com/profile/12158812812118861790noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-512052492545600867.post-33589265360658715412011-03-12T04:01:00.000-08:002011-04-04T10:36:23.423-07:00Costumes<strong>When planning our opening sequence and character profiles, we decided on costumes:</strong><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><u>Dannie's costume</u></div><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Dannie is a laid back 17 year old girl. She is staying at home on, however is waiting for her boyfriend, Josh, to arrive. Therefore, her costume needs to be relaxed and casual, however still neat and slightly dressed up in order to impress Josh. So, we went with jeans and a plain top. Her flower necklace and pinned pack hair reflects her girly personality. She is wearly some make-up, which is for costume purposes, as well as to ensure that her skin appears smooth and attractive on screen in the harsh lighting. She is not wearing shoes, as we have established that she is staying at home in the opening. Her blonde hair is typical of a 'girlie' girl in a film: although we do not want her to appear weak and stereotypically girly like cheerleaders in American high school films, who only care about their appearance, the blonde hair is typical of a damsel in distress character, such as Dianna Agron's character in I Am Number Four.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: left;">Josh wears dark clothes in the opening scene, which portray him as tough.

However, as the scene is set in a home, we kept some kitchen objects such as food and pots on display to keep a relaxed, homely and unstaged feel.

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">When planning for our shoot, we decided a floor plan would be really helpful as two out of the three of our group had never seen the location, and we wanted to make sure the shots we needed were possible. </div>We lettered the positions on the floor plan from A-G with a shot for M (master) as well, so that we could easily remember which position was where without difficulty.<br />
<br />
This helped a lot with planning our shot list. We now know exactly where each camera is, and what it needs to film. This way, we will not miss any shots or get any shots that are at the wrong angle or defy the 180 degree rule.<br />

We also wanted to introduce another character so that the narrative structure would be clearer to the audience. It also gives the audience some clue as to what has happened in the kitchen, as the actual kidnapping happened in darkness.<br />

<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">We also decided to add to the script because there was an issue with the actress, so were unable to reshoot the blackout scene. This meant that if we had left it there would have been an even longer portion of the sequence in total blackout. We talked to the media teachers and they agreed that something else needed to be added instead, so the appearance of the boyfriend was introduced. This worked out for the better actually, because it meant that the protagonist appeared at the beginning of the film so the audience was familiar with him and the circumstances before the film had properly started. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">We also changed our character's name from Lou to Dannie in order make the script feel more natural to the actors.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />

<br />
We used tables and chairs to set teh classroom otu as if it was the kitchen at Eva's house. We made ti the same size to see what sort of shots we could get. While filming, we used a floorplan to note where we positioned the cameras to make compiling our shotlist easier.<br />
<br />
Here is our rough edit of the footage:<br />
