Typography

There has been in a change in the typography we used. We used the idea of the title from the Godfather.It is very basic black background and white text; very simple but also affective. We never was trying to over exaggerate by using various colors and a font which has been either scratched in and other effects we wanted something very simple and basic to reflect on our title sequence.

Possible Shooting Locations


This is outside the school building this place was chosen due to us feeling it would be a great pathway to open our title sequence. This is a location i was halfway happy about this location due to the football pitches just creeping into the shot making it seem unrealistic.



I was really keen on this, the double doors are extremely common in any types of films involving someone with power. Also it is quite dark and merges with genre of our film to create the effect we are intending.



This was a possible opening sequence. We as a group collectively thought this would be a very great shot to use, having someone coming out of a lift. 

I was happy with this shot it was inside then school premesis but due the set out of it with all the photos on the wall it also looks like a good location due to the legnth of the corridor.

Music Idea

After we found out that we had to pay for any copyrighted music which was most definitely out of the question we had to look for an alternative. Shaun had friends in the music department which has come in handy because a song is not copyrighted as long as it is a cover version. Basically we have this option and the group have made a song and sounds promising from what i have heard, so when time allows i shall hear it.

STORY BOARD



Journal   07/01/2011

Today in class we had to explain to the group or idseas and get feedback. Danny showed the class his
blog to show our story board and Shaun spoke about what the film is actually about. The feed back was encouraging. The typography which we chose drew some attention because the class though that we should maybe use another one however, after explaingng the idea we was going for they agreed. Mr Purday said we have a strong idea.
