We have now donnee all our filming! completed it earlier at coombe abbey :) everything went well and now just gotta finish editing the rest of movie :) weve picked out some music and now just have to pick which tracks were using :) Comming Along well! a draft should be up soon :)

Difference between an opening and a trailer?

Trailor

• Provides a summary or plot outline
• character roles are clearly defined (Propp)
• Short and varied clips from entire film
• Audience gets clear idea of equilibrium (Todorov)Music is a selling tool
• Voice Over

Opening

• Engima codes (Barthes)
• Character roles are limited, main character shown only
• Establishing shot for setting
• Action shots (Barthes)
• Audience gets a hint of disequilibrium
• Titles are imaginative and fit genre
• Variety of shots are used
• Does the audience want to carry on watching?
• Does the music fit the genre

Our Work is definatly an opening because it fits the opening criteria and doesnt fir the criteria of a trailor.

Filming

Did most filming today of beggining shots of beth. Just need to be edited now. We are going to filming the last remainding bits of beth waking up in the forest some time this week as it's bin raining today. But on the all everythings going well and first draft should be ready for preveiwing next week :)

New Idea for opening....

This is the opening of our new idea. It is a rough copy. We are going to add in shots of Beth Day putting her make-up on and place them inbetween the shots of Robert Williams looking at the knife. We may have to either speed up the clips or cut them down to fit in to the end of the music.

We have decided to cut out the party scene and replace them as flash backs. We decided this because our ideas would have not fitted in with the time limit that we have been given. We will use the flashbacks for when Beth day starts to wakes up in the woods.
