Change of location

Our initial idea was to film at black park and find a heavy wooded area with a pathway of sorts but not a public footpath so we didnt get members of the public walking into shot. However after discussion we decided that some members in the group lived quite far away from black park and sometimes unable to make shooting schedules so we decided as a group to move the location to nearer school so that during lessons we could go down the woods and film and that way it was easy to get to and everyone could then be present so it would benefit the whole group. However whilst recording we got a lot of backgorund noise from people walking dogs and the cars on the road so we decided that we would film at black park afterall since the backgorund noise wouldn't be as loud so it would be easier to use it and put music over the top of some of the footage. Overall black park was better because the woods were more thick and the chances of someone walking through shot was minimal compared to how big black park is.

New Storyboard

This is our new storyboard  of what to do whilst in the woods. This will give us the extra time we need in our opening without making it boring or repetitive.

I have published yet another shooting shedule because due to weather and ILP days at school we have become behind on our previous shedule and february hallf term would be perfect to do some reshooting and start working towards our deadline.

What we plan to do and changes made

We plan to get all filming done during the february half term and before after this it will leave us enough time to edit and reshoot anything that we need to do. This also gives us one solid week to get all the filming done and dusted and during this time i will also be editing the material we have just to keep the process moving onwards instead.

A few changes have been made to our storyboard, we have now added a house scene to lengthen our opening more, and we are in the process of trying to make it a bit more on edge and creating tension for the audience to pull them in and then not carry on the storyline so it will leave the audience wanting more and leave their minds to wonder about what happens in the end.
