Getting Specific

Last time Ellie and I met we had the intentions of filling in the little gaps next class, and that's exactly what we did. First on the list was finding a  person to play the psychopath. We went through lists of friends who we thought would be good for it and concluded that it really can't be one of our friends. Honestly a 16 year old boy doesn't look to scary. We thought using one of our Dads would fit the job perfectly. The psychopath needs to fit the stereotypical vision otherwise the vision may not be seen as well as we want it to be. Along with features some of the qualities shown below will be incorporated. A man in his 50s would defiantly do the trick. Even though his face will not be seen, his body will be ( thats why it is so important).

 So with that done now we had to think about how we are going to start off the scene. We really want to do lots of cool angles and cuts to keep the viewers interested. Both of our favorite transition is a graphic match so we were trying to figure out ways to bring this into play. We thought we can use the radio in a car to a radio in the "layer" as a way to do it. It turned out being harder than we thought. We had trouble figuring out what angles would look best in the scene. Basically we ended up thinking that the beginning of the films angles are something we are going to have to play around with once we start filming. Although,we named a few that we thought would look good and are going to try them all out. If something better comes around too we will absolutly try it out too! Assuming things are going to work isn't good enough at this point! We are getting closer to the end of the project as the weeks go by and really need to test the waters.

Because of the we set to film in one week, this gives us extra time we may need if everything doesn't go the way it's supposed to (which is very likely). We're both super excited seeing it all come together. Trial and error is going to be our main method of filming at this point, it may be hard, but we are willing to put all of our efforts in.
