2nd production meeting

in the 2nd production meeting this was between Aklima & Stephanie they put down the storyline of what will really happen between the characters which they made Ben&Stephanie. The storyline was made up from the a secret CD which had information of Ben on there which if it was leaked it would cause a problem and ben had to kill Stephanie, but he founds out there are more copies.

At first me and ben were planning and writing ideas down and also other plots and narratives and also discussing the location of where we will shoot the film. After putting down some keyword we came up with the idea of a revenge and a vengeance and we put two friends together and they had an argument which caused the death of one of them.

First day of filming

On our first day of filming we arranged to meet up in school. we filmed on the school site making sure that the area in which we were filming in was empty to prevent others coming into the shot. However we did face a few problems, for example the camera stopped working during one of our shots which in this situation we had to replace the camera and begin our filming again. Also we had to be cautious of the time as the children from the lower years moved classes after the bell went which could have been a problem as they could have got into our shots. however we did manage to film the first half of the film during our first day filming. Therefore we filmed the falling out between the two characters which had been best friends for years but also how vengeance comes about between the two and leads to uncertainty amongst the other person as to what they meant but also what will happen.

Intial Ideas

At first we had thought to set it within a car park due to our first mindset was to film to be on the basis of revenge between once close mates therefore making the fact that revenge is deeper than normal revenge therefore to start of from childhood with them to today. We wanted to film within a car park as it's a open space therefore an attack or plot for revenge could come from anywhere at any moment therefore building more suspense and more to the imagination of the audience.

But within the film will use such shots as low angle or high angle to represent a sense of vulnerability or power the character possesses but also how this switches within the film then within the editing when the argument and disagreement is occurring will use the shot reverse shot to represent the conversation back and forth or the over the shoulder shot. The sound used will be non-digetic to add emphasis to what the setting is within the film therefore uncertainty will use unsettling music to represent the build up and tension to something bad occurring however digetic sound will be which comes from the surroundings to fit more in with it. Miss-en-scene with the props and costumes will include casual to fit just a normal type of outfit as it isn't an event or a special thing furthermore the camera placement within the filming has to be in the aspect to fit with the setting to show the surroundings where the possible threats could or could not come from.

Styles Of Editing

Styles Of Editing 

Style of editing is how shots are linked together 

Transition- This is the movement from one shot to the next and that is a transition.

Straight cut 

• This is one of the most common editing techniques.
• It is invisible after a transition.
• One shot move to the next instantly without the audience noticing
• Straight cut shots also help retain reality, they do not ruin the audiences suspension of belief.

Dissolves 

• This is when you are fading one shot off the screen while another shot is fading in.
• The viewers will be able to see both shots and fading of the previous shot on the screen.
• Fading is used when the film maker wants to show a connection between two character, places or objects.

Fades 

• A gradual darkening or lightening of an image until it becomes black or white.
• The shot will fade until a black or a white screen appears.
• This is used when the end of a certain scene or section of time within narrative. 
• Also can show the passing of time.

Wipes

• One image is pushed off the screen by another

Jump Cut

• A jump cut is editing which
