Job roles Breakdown




Assigned job Roles- 


Overall narrative planning-

This was a job that could be assigned to all of the group as all members are encouraged to contribute their ideas for the film. All members had the responsibility of coming up with ideas and this was done very well. 


Storyboard- 

Joe was assigned with this job because we as a group decided that Joe was the best interpreting our idea by drawing it. With his skills the drawings are very good at showing what will happen in our film. 


Production schedule-

This is a constant log of what will need to be done within each week and we will log when we do it. Each week will have a certain to do list that will enable us to keep on track with what we are supposed to be doing so that we will get everything done in time. Me, Jade and Callum were doing this because Joe was busy doing the storyboard. 


List of characters and character analysis-

 I was assigned this job. In this task i have to write down all of the characters that are in the film as well as their back ground. 

List of props and costumes and Location Recce-

Jade was assigned this job as well as the location recce. We thought jades house would be the best option for our filming as it is right in the middle of all of our houses therefore everyone is able t get to it easily, it is also very near the school therefore if we have any problems with our camera we will be able to go back to school and ask.


Screenplay and Script- 

This is when Joe and Callum decide what types of editing, throughout the film, will be taking place. This is important because us as a group need to know when we are going to include things like blank screens, how long the shots ar actually going to be as well as the amount of time, for example, a character may walk from one end of the room to the other, which will need to be cut to a certain time period. 


Outtakes-

Callum is assigned to this task and this is because of how experienced he is with editing and how he has the knowledge with outtakes. Choosing what will be used and what will not is very important therefor we believe Callum is the best for this job. Outtakes means what is not going to be used in our opening horror film. 


Account of any Re-filming- 

This is going to be assigned to the whole group because we will need to decide if we need to re film as well as when everyone can re-film. 



Sound-

For this task we will look up different types of sound that suit the horror theme. We will use Youtube to carry out this task and will gather different sources for our sound research. The whole group will carry out this task as everyone's ideas are very important.

List of characters and character analysis- And Update-

 

There are going to be chnages in the people thatare going to be the dead bodies due to one person who is unable to attend the film session therefor we are changing Aaron Zurita to Thomas Larke.


UPDATE


Due to the changes being made in our film idea, after we filmed this version of our film we decided to come up with a different plot which involved different characters. The characters that will be involved in our film will be a voice over for a new reporter, which will be played by Joe Deighton. And there will be a male character that is played by Joe Deighton and a female character which will be played by Ruby Tyler. The antagonist in the film is played by a male named Luke Scrivener, who also auditioned to be the news reporter, but sadly didn't get the part, therefore we gave him the antagonist. The interviews that took place for the new reporter part will be embedded below.

Plan- Recce pictures

For our location we decided to use jade's house. This is because we feel as if jades house is the most convenient due to where it is. Her house is somewhere where everyone can get to easily as well as close to the school. Jade has taken some Recce pictures to give us an idea of what the film will look like as well as its surroundings. This is also key for the risk assessment that is carried out for the filming sessions. Here are the recce pictures- 





This is the living room that we will be using to create our film. As you are able to see, it is a normal looking living room with good spacing. We will work around the table in the middle of the room to give it a realistic feeling. 





This is a picture of the door way that will be seen in our opening sequence. It is big and spacious therefore filming will not have any issues throughout.


This is another door way that will be used in the film and this is going to be done to show a wider picture of the location. 






This is a picture of the front door that will be used in our opening. This is a key feature in the opening film.






Storyboard
















A storyboard is very important as not only does it show the story line and whats going to happen, it also reveals the shots that are going to be used.

Focus groups-

As a class we split off into two groups boy and girls to focus on the target audiences of horror films, and to find out specific sub-genres that are popular within the audiences that watch horror films. As well as this it will help us find out what people detest in the horror film world and will let us know what to include and what not to include in our own film in order to make them as successful as they can possibly be. Here are both groups feedback videos;
