Progress So Far

In the time from our research a lot has happened and we are filming on tuesday and wednesday of half term (26th/27th?) so if we need to re-shoot any shots we can do that later on in the break, Alice will be getting picked up by me on tuesday afternoon and taken down to Salisbury.

We produced a document with the narrative on which is detailed and has been highlighted for each member of our groups role in the film. We have also included a basic script on the same document with key phrases or lines that have to be said to link bit's of footage together. We felt that this was important as on most of the trailers we have seen we have realized that a fast paced multi-story narrative has been the focal point and as it works well we can use aspects of that for our inspiration. Also in the trailers there has been a featured 'voice over man' which we indever to incorporate but whether we will have the resources for it i don't know, but we can see and if necersary we can add it at the end of the editing process.

As for Locations admitadtly it has been down to Rachel and I as Alice doesn't live in Salisbury and all filming apart from maybe one or two shots is done there, We have selected a range of locations stretching across Salisbury from the Suberbs to Parks and Underpasses. I have also started to notify the actors of the basic story and what parts they will be in and what they are required to do. We have also done 15 shots on storyboards to make filming smoother and hopefully better, always keeping in mind though that we can wander from the template if a better shot presents itself.Finally We still need to record Rachel and Alice's phone conversation which is to play at various points during the film.

Looking ahead to the task now i believe that we are ready to film however i am apprehensive of the team's willingness - i just hope that we ALL have the determination to get everything filmed on time and effetivly, i don't want a repeat performance of last year where our group failed to care enough about the project and despite the outcome being okay i'd rather do it without as many hardships due to underplanning this year
