Photos of our First Filming

 
We first started Filming in the Corridor on the third floor of the College. This is a Wide Shot of us filming.

 
We then filmed in a room where we shot this Close up of Kavita to show her performing mental actions.

 
We then filmed my reaction to Kavitas mental actions that shows contrast of the two characters. When we started filming in this room, this is when we discovered that the Mise en Scene is incorrect and doesn't fit in with our piece.

First Filming of Bloody Tears


This is our First Filming of our Thriller Opening. We felt that there was a lot of Jump cuts in this filming and we tried to avoid them but it didn't go to plan. We also felt that the Mise en Scene didn't fit in with the whole Aslyum scene as it was quite opposite to a Aslyum. This was the main issue of this first filming as it didn't fit in with our Story line that we want our Thriller Film Opening to go by. The Jump Cuts where also another large issue of this filming as it wasn't smooth enough when we watched it back. It made our filming look quite ammature and unrealistic. When we film in the future the Mise en Scene will be more Aslyum looking and the Jump Cuts will only occur if we want them to.

Analysis of Film Advertisement

Today i picked up a Newspaper and as i read it, i noticed various Film Advertisements. This one particular stood out for me as its very eye grabbing. Once i finished reading the paper i figured that i might as well post a blog about it! :)


The main colour of this advertisement is a deep red. This connotes both Danger and Love. As a viewer i straight away assume that the Genre of this film is a Horror/Romance. As the man in this film is wearing a Red Hoody, i assume that he may be a danger to the girl behind him in the white top. By having the contrast of the two characters in different clothing shows that the girl is innocent whereas the man is dangerous. The Proxemics of the both characters make me believe that the Genre has an element of Romantic in it as they are close and they are of different sexes. The fact that the man is slouching conveys that he may be unaware that he is a danger to the girl with her back straight looking over her shoulder behind the man. The man looks very intriguing as he has a grey complexion which shows that he may be suffering from an illness or have some type of disease or be some type of Supernatural Being. This creates to horror side to the Genre as he looks quite scary and menacing.

Pitch Powerpoint Feedback

The Feedback that we got from our Pitch was very useful.

Mary liked the idea that we want a Voice Over played throughout the opening scene.

 
She suggested the idea that we should have Signs/Posters of Broadmoor Hospital and the NHS around where we are filming to create more Mise en Scene. We like this idea and will be using it for our Thriller Film Opening.
 
 
Mary also suggested that we should have beddings in the rooms we are filming in to create more of a Aslyum feel to our Mise en Scene. It will be a struggle for us to get beds in and out of the college so we have decided to push chairs together and get white sheets to throw over them to create the Beds. This will hoepfully have the same affect on the audience than what the beds would.
Overall, Mary liked our ideas for our Thriller Film opening and we will be going ahead with everything we have decided. We are looking forward to start filming our opening to our best ability.
