Thursday 10th December 2009 - playground scene

Mis-en-scene and Location







Bianca Goldman and I did the makeup for our actress. We brought makeup from our homes to put on her face.
We tested the makeup and the hair style on our actress who is Catrin George-Carey. We wanted to know what it looked like before we filmed our scene. we used the makeup we had to put bruises and blood marks on her face as it made the scene look more realistic. we wanted her to look as if she was in danger and had been in a fight. Her hair was messed up to look like someone had pulled her hair in the fight








The location we shot in was Courtland School in Mill Hill. We filmed in this location because it had a big playground. Before we shot we took pictures to see where to put the camera so we could get the best shot. The actress sat in the middle of the circle and we filmed around her. we filmed when the sun was setting and this was a beautiful effect because it gave the shots a orange light. It made the playground to be a scarier place and as there was only her in the playground, it gave a very creepy effect.

opening sequences that i researched

to kill a mockingbird
Go to the art of title sequence
I liked this title sequence because there was a lot of close up shots of different objects. all these objects are from the time the film was set and one of the titles are of a close up of someone drawing a mockingbird. all the names of the people who are in this film are in the title sequence as well as what they play in the film

William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet
Go to the art of title sequence
I liked this title sequence because it set the scene of what is going to happen and why everything in the film happens. It starts off with a TV which goes all crackly and then there is a news report. The women is speaking the prologue that Shakespeare actually wrote in his play. It goes on to introduce all the characters. It's not just told to you but also shown to you that these two families don't like each other

Domino
Go to the art of tile sequence
I liked this title sequence because it shows all the different character but all their different body parts. It shows what the film is about which is gun crime. There is a lot of different colour

this is the story board for the prelimanary task

preliminary Task

This our second attempt at the preliminary task because of the first one we broke all different kinds of rules. we wanted to re film it and make it even better than before. we changed the story line of what we first decided to do and made it in a different setting than before
