To make sure we had a successful start to our thriller we needed to be accurate with the detail of the filming.
Here are some of the factors we had to consider, advised by year 13s who have completed the opening of a thriller before.
1. Making sure our camera or iPhone is fully charged with enough memory to hold the footage we need.
2. Chose the location carefully and take pictures and videos of the setting we would use.
3.Triple check:
Props
Costumes
4. Look out for any reflections in mirrors, if shooting with a mirror.
5. Check the weather conditions if you are filming on two different days or night and day.
6. The film must be completed in February and then the blog and then evaluation ASAP.
7. Get more footage than you really need, eg:5-6 minutes.
8. Take shots from different angles.
9. Don't leave things till the last minute eg: blog.
10. Don't go for the obvious with a thriller have a twist.
11. Be prepared to change ideas and have a plan B.
12. Ask permission for any buildings or land you do not own.
13. Take videos and pictures of EVERYTHING.
14. Use a tripod to film for steadiness.
15. Be media rich videos.photos social networking.
16. Don't have any speech its unneeded.
17. Detailed storyboard at the end.
18. Think of location.
19. Variety of shots.
20. Use time effectively make sure everyone works.
21. Test shots first.
22. Look out for photo bombers!
23. Choose lighting well not too dark.
24. Someone in charge of spelling/ check grammar.
25. Use realistic props.
26. Don't shoot until whole group is prepared with the ideas and plan you have.
27. Use the light on the camera if you use one.
We took all these points into consideration throughout our filming and because of the year 13 advise we were more likely not to miss obvious mistakes.
