Research And Planning: Auditions Poster


 


This is the poster in which we handed out around college to find people in which would like to take part in our trailer.

Research And Planning: Magazine Costume and Props List

Costume isn't going to be needed in the making of my magazine due to me using a close up of a person face, however the props in which I could use would be some makeup to add to the effects on the image that is being taken.

Research And Planning: Magazine Masthead Font Ideas

This is a good font in which I could use for the masthead on my magazine, the fonts name is Básica.

This is yet another font that I could use for the masthead of my magazine, the fonts name is Angie's New House.

 Coolvetica seems like an appropriate font in which would fit my magazine well also.


This couture font would also be good to use on the masthead of my magazine.


This Dock 11 font also seems to fit in well and would make a good font to use for the masthead of my magazine.


The most appropriate font in which I believe I could use for the masthead of my magazine at this current time is Dock 11 given that it is sharp.

Research And Planning: Risk Assesment



These are two of the other documents that Kyle had to fill out which would be talking about the possible hazards or problems that we could encounter while we are filming our trailer.

Research And Planning: Location Recce

This is the location Recce that Kyle had to fill out, this is because Kyle was the one who has been chosen to do Mise-En-Scen so I had to fill out series of information explaining some of the different things that I would have to think about when we are filming.

Research And Planning: Shot List Production Document

This is the shot list that shall be used throughout the scenes in our trailer, more maybe include if needed however these are the main ones that shall be used.

Research And Planning: Possible Actor Headshots




These are a few of the possible actor headshots of the people in which we could use in our filming, these are not the people that will definitely be in our trailer however they could be used.

Research And Planning: Test Shots







These are test shots of the shots that will be being used when coming to filming our trailer, these shot that I have taken are all appropriate for the genre of the trailer in which I shall be making with Kyle.

Research And Planning: Cinematography

The shot types that I will be using given that I am in charge of cinematography are:
  • Wide Shots
  • Close Ups
  • Medium Close Ups
  • Two Shots
  • Over the Shoulder Shots
  • And POV shots
  • Other shots types will also be used if appropriate.

Research And Planning: Finalised Location

 
This is the location the trailer will be filmed due to the plot of the film being based in a college where students break in, the filming will be based both inside and outside of the college to show that they have broken in.

Research And Planning: Shooting Times

Given that my roles for this project are Cinematography and Editing I have come to the conclusion that the shooting will be taking place where it is dark outside and the reasoning for this is because it will fit in well with the genre of a film, given that it is horror being filmed at night will give it more of a frightening feeling.

Research and Planning: Film Magazine Analysis 2

 
May Movies is a  horror based film magazine as we can see it is advertising the film Jennifer's Body and so this magazine is great at giving me and Kyle ideas on when we come to create our magazine. The colour scheme in which has been used on the May Movies is red, white and yellow/orange these are appropriate colours considering the genre of the film being horror. The colours that have been used are very dark on the cover and this yet again indicates the horror aspect to the magazine, like many magazines in general, it has a masthead, barcode, image, taglines and other information down the sides of the image.

Research and Planning: Film Magazine analysis

This Empire magazine is not a horror based magazine however the way they have structured the magazine could be very useful when myself and Kyle come to do our magazine for our horror film. The image that has been used on the front of the magazine Batman could be simply exchanged with a horror picture from our film and then the rest of the layout would fit perfectly with the horror genre. They follow the use of the three colour rule which in this case is black, blue and white and seeing the three colour rule on professional magazines like this means that this is something we will definitely consider when coming to doing our magazine. Some of the features that are used on this film magazine that we will incorporate into our magazine are that they all have a masthead at the top of the page usually, barcode, tagline, images and a film title that the magazine is promoting for this certain issue.

Research And Planning: Distribution Company Ideas

Some of the distribution company ideas that will we create to distribute our film will be:

- Mirror Images
- Alarming Pictures
- Plague Pictures
- Repulsion
- Panic Pictures

Because we are an independent film company we will have a seperate distribution company than to our production company.

Research And Planning: Meeting 3

Me and Kyle have just had a small meeting to discuss who will be creating the logo's for each of the production and distribution company, we came to the conclusion that I will be doing things related to the production company and Kyle will be doing the distribution related things.

Research And Planning: Productions Company Ideas.

The Production Company Ideas that I have come up with that I believe would be appropriate for the Horror film that I shall be creating are:

- Sideways Pictures
- Appauling Pictures
- Obnoxious Pictures
- Detestable Pictures
- Fearful

These are the names at which I think I could use for the Production Company, these would allow me to make a Logo based on these names when I come to create it.

Research And Planning: Production Company Logo's

Before I am to create my film company logo, I looked at professional company logos so that I could get an idea on what I was to include when I came to creating my own for my film. The independent film company logos are much simpler than the conglomerate film company logos so when I create my film companies logo I will create it like a independent film companies logo.

Research And Planning: Meeting 2

Me and Kyle planned a meeting this week on Thursday to talk about where we were up to and what we were going to do next, we planned on doing:
-Completing the animatic storyboard.
-Coming up with a few more film names.

Research And Planning: Solvr
