We uploaded all of our footage today and began sorting out the order of the sequences . By uploading this footage we sson realised we were missing a key clip of showing us the location , we remembered we had a good clip in our prelim task , so we used that when moving locations from our characters homes to school.

planning part 4

After school i shot our final parts with Jack , Our main character . This filming did not take very long as everything went smoothly , however some shots were too dark but i added extra light to this footage making the sequence easier to see.

planning part 3

We have shot our first part of the sequence with Nicky , our main character . We have added extra shots and change some around , we added an extreme close up of her lips rather than her eyes .

planning part 2

Today we have shot our last part of the sequence . This took place on school grounds . We noted down the outfits of the characters to make sure when we film earlier footage we can re create the scene. We realised having an over the shoulder shot when one of our main characters was running was not very stable to we had to re shoot this and make the shot a lot shorter .

planning

Today we began planning who , when and where we could film. Some shots involved both characters however other shots involved only one actor/actress , so we had to organise which days we could film and where we could film.

Own initial ideas.

Our first initial ideas consisted of a similar storyboard and idea, however this was changed due to many problems and not being able to get certain props, for example our first plan involved our main character ‘ Nathan’ travelling to school in a car , we hoped we would be able to provide this but due to our age and circumstances we did not have access of a car so we changed this to a tracking shot of ‘Nathan’ walking to school with a friend. Our first ideas were still in the same genre, ‘rom-com’ as we only changed some shots, or storyline still was the same. Overall I found that it is hard to capture key narrative features and iconography for when creating a  ‘ rom-com’ film, as you need many iconic parts to make the film come across as this genre, I feel we captured this well with the music, shots and miss en scene.  The music we chose at the beginning gave a pop, feel good beat to get the audience involved an feel happy and intrigued into watching this while we used a light soft track for the moment the two characters meet to show a ‘spark’ and make this moment significant to the audience as well as being for the characters.

Planning

This is one of our fist plans when coming up with the idea of a 'Rom-Com' and coming up with the characters.

this is a basic plan we started to create for our character profiles.

this is a plan for our camera shots , it helped us plan which shot had which actor/actress so we could organise to film with them .
