today we went to costa to do our research on ( screen reels)
We went to a few places around Orpington that use screen reels
I went to the post office, boots and the Sony shop.
we had to write
Where it is?
Whos ois it aimed at?
What does it show?
Does it have sound?
What health and saftey issuses might need to be adressed?
After we had done this we went back to Costa to meet V and had break before next class.
Then we had to go round the college to see the screen reels around college and go to Marketing Department to ask if we could use there tv to show our screen reel.

Today I have started on a project activity log so that when I come back from my work experience I no what I have to and how long i got to do it. When I get back I have to upload my footage onto the apple mac and start to edit it all to put it together so it flows nicely. once I have done this I want to choose a song that goes with the footage to go over the top of the footage and that will be my trailer complete.

Today I had a talk with Amanda to find out ways to get to my work experience placement in London. We used TFL website for this and printed of a map and a route I would have to take to get there. I also spoke to Orouje Tamimi. The woman who will be looking after me on my placement and we had a talk on what sort of jobs I would be doing and what sort of cloths I should were. The clothes are casual so I don’t have to be too smart. And the job she said I would be doing is following her and interviewing and writing articles and maybe seeing the photographer

On Friday we got all the equipment ready and went down to Whitstable and stayed there for the weekend. That is where we got most of the filming done. We started filming outside the train station and also filmed some footage on the beach later that evening. All we have to left to do is a little bit more filming in a train station and Jack running away.
When we have done that I will have to upload it to a Apple Mac computer so I can edit it put it all together cut and layering and add any audio if needed I shall be getting the rest of the filming done this week and editing as soon as I can

After going through the story we now have and rehearsing it last night I have now realised that it is more of a thriller than a horror.
I now have a bibliography telling you a few online sites that have acting auditions and opportunities. I also have to start my storyboarding today as we filming later tonight and over the weekend. If we had more time I think I might have liked to edit it to make the movie trailer more towards a horror as that was my intended idea

bin a while

I am now on my new project and am making a horror movie. I am enjoying it. Originally I was going to be doing a music video but I changed my mind because some of the girls in my class are now doing a music video. I have the help of a good friend who studies film to help me. We now together have a good story plot and are going to film on Friday night and Saturday at Whitstable which then gives me a week to edit and finish it.
I also had a few other ideas before choosing to do the horror movie
I was going to do
· A typical student day
· A game show similar to Gladiators
· Tutorial on how to make a music video and your own music
· Me dancing for a music video

I think I have chosen the write idea to work on as I am enjoying doing this and am coming up with some good ideas

5th febuary

Monday and Tuesday college was closed due to bad weather.
Today I did a spider diagram on a few ideas that I had so it would make it easier for me to choose which one to do for my project.
I have chosen to make a music video. What I have to do is make auditions for college bands or groups so that I can make a video for them.
What I have to do now is make sure I can send out emails to all students and make a date and place to audition.
