Research: Designing my survey

In this lesson and in my own time, i am going to design a survey via a website called Survey Monkey. Here is a screen shot of the website.

Research: Horror history

Main Task: Introduction

We are now starting our main task. It will be the titles and the opening of a new teen horror film for the duration of two minutes. It is very important that all of the video and audio that we use in our video is all our own material. Although we are aloud to use music or audio from a copyright-free source.

Final preliminary task video

Here is Fisheye Films finished Preliminary task video. 

Editing our prelim task video

Once we had imported our video footage to the IMac computers. We opened IMovie and imported our video footage into this program. We played around with the affects and sound to create our final video. We created a edited version of the footage without sounds or effects. Then we created a second version with sound and effects. I feel that our strongest video out of the two would be the one with sound and effects. It makes the video more enjoyable. Overall i feel that we have been successful with our video and i am pleased with the final outcome.

Mise-en-scene

Mise-en-scene is what we have included in our video. (Props and costumes)

We decided that we would all dress formally. We come to school in formal clothes but we thought we would make an extra effort to make us even more smarter. This was because we had to look like adults and look like we was part of a group that did these sort of things.

When we was filming the props we used were -

• Folder
• Cardboard box (bomb)

Me and Aimee appeared in the video as our individual parts. I was Jim playing the man who was receiving the bomb and Aimee played Chris who was delivering the bomb. Ellie was filming most of the video.

Story Boards

Today we have finished our story boards of in detail. We have changed a few things after we had finished filming because we thought we could improve on particular things and we had new ideas why we was filming. 

Casting

My group, Fisheye Films, decided to make myself and Amiee Hull as the people who will be sating in our film. We could not get anyone else as everyone was not free. Ellie Spence filmed me and Aimee, but when it was just Aimee in the film i helped film. I learnt new skill and decided on the shot that would feature in the film.

                                        Ellie as director

                                        Aimee = Chris (terrorist)

                                       Sam = Jim (boss)
