Props anf filming - 27-28

We didnt have important props for this movie; the costume for this movie wasnt generally wasnt that important. We decided our main character should have a rough beard. The beard does play as an important feature because it displays a sense of lonliness and shows a character who isnt exactly social and living in quite a remote area.

HERE IS AN EXAMPLE OF A ROUGH BEARD...

CAST - 26

 The Protagonist of our film is called Troy Stone. He is a young man around 20 years old. He has special abilities, which are dormant at the moment. Joseph and I decided to cast me as this character, because I can act like a character who is keeps everything to himself and who has quite a loner attitude.

The Second character in this opening is called Garth. He is a 16 year old teenager who helps Troy in his boat house. He is a local in the area. We decided to cast Joseph as Garth for the opening scene. Few reasons are he looks 16 and he can act like a average 16 year old.

Task 24-25

RISK ASSESSMENT

Might Get Hypothermia because Scotland is really really cold.
There might be a tsunami in the beach so we could drown.
Might fall of a cliff somewhere.

There aren't many risk which are likely to happen during this move.

FILM BASICS

The story is about a man who had supernatural powers in his life and is dormant now; he has moved away from any major cities into a quiet, remorse and lonely village near the coast.

MAKING

The filming of the footage didn't take a lot of time; just around 1 - 2 hours; the editing obviously took longer, at least 7 hours including the music.


LOCATIONS

Around areas of Gordonstoun
Hopeman beach
Shots of the sky ( if that counts...)


SHOOTING SCRIPT (not in order)

Panning shots of the sky
Shots of waves with the GoPro ( in slow motion)
Long shots and extreme long shots of the area around the beach
Long shots of the character
Closeup of the character
Over the shoulder the shot
Panning shot of Trees
Extreme long shots of the lighthouse and etc
low angle shots of the character walking

more will be added...A MAN'S IMAGINE IS IMMANENCE !!!!...that doesnt make sense but we will think of more ideas more the shooting script during the filming.

Shooting script- 23

FIRST SHOT
Waves in Hopeman harbour lapping the wall in slow motion


Extreme long shot the close up the medium shot then goes to the waves again


Finished work close up of bag of him packing shows hands putting stuff in bag then pans to face


Quick cut to show him closing door everything in the room goes black, then it’s a shot of troy head coming up over the hill with Hopeman in the background


The sequence of him walking takes about two minutes


Long shot of him changes as he walks up toward the camera with fades in-between shots


Birds’ eye shot of main character walking into gate


Shot of external of main character building

The he goes in and the screen goes black    


Most of this shots will freeze and create a slow motion effect; for example the the waves. this is inspired by the Broadwalk Empire opening sequence.

Animatic - 22

MUSIC ! - 21

Music. I think we should use a soundtrack for our film. i think for the opening we could use a section of the song "The Bridge Of Khazad Dum" from The Lord Of The Rings and The Man Of Steel Trailer. Here is a clip of the music we want to use... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7R3oESCgQw.




Since we are only doing the opening for the movie intro we could either use that or the soudntrack of the "Deliver Hope" trailer of the Halo franchise. Here is a link to the song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7R3oESCgQw.


 I think these pieces of music would work quite well with our intro. I don't think we are going to have lively music in this movie because it is quite a "dark contrast" movie. I think as the intro finishes there should we music leading onto the scene where the main character "Troy" is introduced.

Storyboard - 20

This Screenshot for the storyboard introduces the main character Troy Stone.


This Screenshot shows Troy regaining his powers.


This Screenshot shows Troy Talking to his old friend Victor Curry.


This Screenshot Shows Troy turning "evil".

Todorov's narrative theory - 19

I think Todorov  <---- this guy's theory is a good example of the narrative theory we would like to use in our film. There is a diagram below showing how Todorov's theory works.

This works quite well with our plot. If you can relate this to our story arc that was posted before, and you can compare the "Acts" to this Theory.

Story Arc - 18

Our Basic Story for our film is based around a character called Troy stone. Troy stone struggles with his daily life, a small time fisher off the coast. you don't understand why a young man like him is wasting his life in the middle of nowhere. you later learn that he possessed great powers that was dormant until one night; where he regains them. He then gets a visit from his old friend "Victor Curry"; who knows his "secret". Troy uses his powers to steal and to commit other small crimes. He is misguided and gaining back his powers takes over him and changes him completely; his agenda are completely wrong. At the end of the film he gains control over his powers and his personality; with the help of his friends he decides to help people with his powers. If we divide this plot into acts it would be.

Act 1 

His daily life and the opening of the movie.

Act 2 

Regaining his dormant powers. OMG HE HAS SUPER POWERS!!!!

Act 3 

Meeting "ghosts" from his past

Act 4 

Using his powers for bad intentions

Act 5

Using his powers to help people

The story sounds a bit bland and the powers might seem hard to record in a video; but with the help of Adobe After Effects it is possible.
