Romantic Films . . .

I have been doing some research into other Romantic films, I thought I would go onto the BBC website to see if I was able to gather some information which we could possibly use to our advantage.
I found this survey that showed peoples favourite Romantic films in Northen Ireland, I thought this was good informantion and that I would maybe research a selection of the different films on the chart and find what similarities and differences there were with our film opening and the other film openings.

Better version . ..

This is just a better version of the song I had previously put on here, this one isn't live so you can hear it better.

Although we are unsure on weither we can use this due to copyright restrictions so we will have to find this out. If not we will have to make some music on the apple macs garrage band and use that xx

Preliminary Task . .

We recorded and edited our Preliminary a while ago, but we had been unable to upload it to youtube because of some of the effects we had and it said it would of have to have got rid of them. So we uploaded them in a different way and that worked.

I think that our preminlinary task works really well, I think that we have done our door shot well because we made sure that Remarnis had was in the same place as it was in the last shot and the door in the same place.

We wanted to give our preliminary task a bit more of a story line and some humour because we didn't want it to be boring, but still needed to included the shots and we thought that by just doing a "thumb war" it was an easy way to do this.

The random bit of squeeky voice at the end is because in normal voice it sounded a bit wrong, so we thought that we'd change it to this. Although looking back it probably would of sounded better if we'd have just left it.

I think that our use of the 180 degree shot and continuity shot worked really well though over all xx

Locations..

We finally have pictures of a possible location, be we are unsure if we'd be able to use it because it is outside a church. And we haven't been able to get in touch with them yet when we've phoned.

Although we do have another location for the wedding in mind which is just near here.

Plot Has Changed . . .

The original plot to our opening has now changed. In our first idea the wedding would happen first and the incident would happen last. But we have now switched these round as we thought it would make more sense this way.

How the Plot now runs;
- Incident with man running from the building (Maybe phone call over the top)
- Lead Female in her bedroom crying and throwing picture at the wall
- *Relective here* Wedding scene (Maybe black and white)



Things I need to add to my blog are:
- Picture of Mood Board
- Example of Questionnaire
- Storyboard
- Peliminary Task
- Heath and Safety Checks for our locations
- Filming Schedule (Including actors, props and locations for differents days)

Maybe A change of song . . .

Although I haven't wrote on here we have still been working, we have filmed at edited our preliminary task which we still need to upload when it has been put onto youtube.


We've also thought about a new song for our opening but it is still not definate, I think it will be easier to slot in a song once we have got the images together and what song gives it the best feel.

This is another possible song we could use;
