All Filming Is Done...

We have finished all our filming and have recently started editing. The first draft should be ready soon!

Final Storyboard

Here is the PDF of the final storyboard.

Film Poster Ideas...

I have had a few ideas for creating my film poster. I am planning for it to be simple and attention grabbing. These are some of the ideas I am hoping to emulate:

I have decided that I would like to make a film poster in a silhouette format as this conveys a lot of ideologies about the short film and an audience can denote the images and text to realise the dominant/preferred meaning of my text.

Rough Storyboard...

This is the back bones of the storyboard that we created before half term to line the story. I then write it up adding some flesh to the writing. We are now doing the more professional and detailed scripts for our film.

Pinny Grylls

After looking at many short films I have found this one most inspiring, I especially admire Pinny Grylls work because it is not a typical short film. The ideas are very unique and induvidual, they also communicate meaning.

Pinny Grylls is a award-winning british film maker, she co-founded Invisible Films and the following year founded the Bird Eye View Film Festival which has shown films of emerging female filmmakers throughout the country. Peter and Ben was her second short film documentry.

Shooting Film..

Over the past term we have been filming the school scenes in lunch times as this was they only time our actors could do. Our last set shoot day is tomorrow lunch time where we plan to shoot the transformation scene. Then it is on to the editing. Exciting!!

Shot List

Over the past few lessons I have been creating a shot list, I've done this in addition to the script and storyboards as from past experience I have found a shot list a clear and consise way of mapping what I need to shoot when on location. Here it is:



To make the production easier and more conveniant for my actors I have seperated the shots and scenes so that we call the actor to set when needed, and have seperated them so we only need the actors (excluding the lead) for a couple of days.
