Health and Safety considerations:

Lighting:
When using either the red heads or the portable lights we must make sure that any waires are taped up and that the lights themselves are on a stable base as so thay do not fall and cause injury. GLoves will be used when handling these lights, especially when they are turned on to avoid buring

Props:
As we are planning to use knives in our film we must make sure that we handle them with care, especially around other people

Trains:
We are going to be filming at a train station so we must take obvious precautions to not endanger ourselves or other people that may be at the station

Synopsis of Thriller opening - David, Chris and Jamie

We want to keep the story of our thriller opening simple, but we also wish to make the veiwer want to carry on watching the rest of the film. We will do this through raising Enigma codes and use of restricted narrative.



The plot of our thriller will be based on a phycotic murderer who is pursuing a victim. We will base this in a village and the targeted victim will be at a train station when the attackes choses to strike. The victim is then taken back to a house where he is gagged and knocked out by the murderer, with the use of knives the killer will kill people from his list of targets. The list is kept in the form of pictures.

The film starts whilst the victim is on the floor of his house, there will then be a flashback and the story will follow from there.

Shaun of the Dead Inspiration - Chris Forrest

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y8C6fMyRQM8 - 4:20.

There are several sequences in Shaun of the Dead that show a number of shots being played simultaneously at a fast pace, giving a sense of rythym. It is effectively used as it shows the daily routine taking place (brushing teeth, toilet etc..) so the audience get an understanding of what the character is doing, in the space of a couple of seconds. We are aiming to incorporate something like this in our thriller opening, so the routine taking place doesn't become tedious but the narrative is still clear. The fast paced cuts between shots may also create tension and enigma as we don't see much of the character and their actions.

  1. Why not embed the video here instead of putting in a link (that doesn't work!)? You need to make the blog more visual, and this is a good way. However, this is also rather underdeveloped and lacks precise indicators of why you might have found it useful. You should also use terms - you should refer to this as montage (we did this earlier in the year and you need to know the term).
