OK!
Today we will be carrying out our filming of the task that was set last week, to do with continuity.
The props have been brought in and the script has been learnt and so we are ready to film and hope that it goes well.

Another task that we have been set is to find out about the genre we our basing our clip off of which is the horror genre.
We have been asked to find out about the history, institutions, target audiences, sub genres, conventions, representation and examples of classic films such as Dracula and Frankenstein.

Our film went very well and took advantage of the setting in mind with camera usage taken from a security camera perspective. the group works very well together and seems to be able to communicate with increasing ease, which will make it easier to get a good scene for our completed work.

We also started our storyboards today.
This exercise consisted of us bringing together ideas for what do film and in what angles. we haven't got our timings yet but we have our mise en scene for about half of the scene we are doing, and so far we have got somebody to play the child, and our 6 teenagers for the main part of the scene. We each put together several ideas for what to do in our scene such as playing around with the different ways in which the child could be walking away from a party and eventually came to the conclusion of having the child walking away with a balloon in hand giving the viewer the implication that she had left a party. We also chose to have some asynchronous sounds of children playing to make it more believable while having a bright filter for filming to make it more eerie.
