Preliminary Task
Our idea was to create a short, 30 second long clip with 4 lines of dialogue, as expressed by the teacher, in the style of a thriller. Through brainstorming, we decided we wanted ideas of hidden identity, aggression, interior feelings hidden away, a sense of speed and pace, the idea of some sort of conflict, be it mentally or physically, and to leave the clip on a cliff hanger, a typical trait of the thriller style.

My group was myself, Amy, Matthew and Hannah. There is a lack of continuity in some of the clips, as Amy didn't wear the same costume on consecutive filming sessions. In the planning progress, Hannah and I were delgated with the task of storyboarding, and below are pictures of what I produced.




Amy was delgated the job of deciding on costume, but has failed to give me any substantial information.

Matthew was delgated the job of deciding props, location, and actors:

The setting for the filming is a long dark corridor, the camera is focused on the feet, this is so you can not see the body and face of the Amy. The second location for the filming is going to be an empty class room, the room again is dark. A table is going to be placed in the centre of the room with a chair with Hannah on the other side facing towards the camera.

Amy: The person that walks down the corridor and enters the room.
Hannah: The person sitting in the chair already in the room.
Matthew: Camera man, Editing
Toby: Camera man, editing


Final Note:
I managed to edit my own version, after spending my own time after school working on it. Unfortunately I had trouble with burning it to DVD, but hopefully, when I get back to school after half term, the teacher who said they would try and sort it for me will have succeeded.
