A glorious day of filming and banter.

Today in our media lesson, Josh,  Emma and I commenced planning an amazing revolutionary piece of cinematography. Our task was to follow a set of tasks; tasks that would make use of our knowledge on shot types, camera angles, sequencing and editing. By the end of the tasks we will have produced a simple sequence of clips.

Assessment Video

The 40 seconds we chose were the opening 40 seconds of the film. In these 40 seconds it shows a boy and a girl snuggling on the living room floor. Then the girl pick up a decrepit, raggedy booklet when a dead hand pops up over the page and the girl screams. We can recreate this in my house using my sister and an old Torah(Jewish scroll). Atfer this scene, a door slams and a hideous demon appears at the window. Unbeknownst to the girl though, she stands up and scampers away up the stairs.

Our first post

We will be learning about camera framing, shot types, continuity,storyboarding, and the typical genre conventions of a ghost film.We will be assessed on our own re creation of a 30/40 second clip of a students horror film.
