change of location

After shooting our pre-lim of our thriller at Ewhurst House we decided that Ewhurst hasnt got the right facilitys to shoot at, there wasnt enough room to get the shots we needed so we looked arounhd Cornhill Mannor and Bweb, Cornhill didnt have a room that was suitable so we decided on bwebs main entrance for the shooting.

Plot narrative

The thriller opens with different angled shots of the string from the trap and then the credits appear parallel to the string. A bell from a part of the trap is moving slowly which makes the man stir and wake up. The sound of the bell is misjudging and the man thinks nothing of the sound and goes back to sleep. The sound of the bells returns but louder causing the man to wake up and the fact that he dismissed the first sound of the bells makes the character feel guilt and anger. The man then leaves the tent and looks around for where the heightened sound is coming from and the sound is increasing and then he gets his axe, holds onto the string which is moving lots and follows his hands along until he knows the exact point where the sound is coming from, which is the string between the doors, he looks up and slowly moves towards the door, and when he gets to the door there is a massive banging noise which then goes silent and a massive bang noise occurs behind the door and then the screen goes black.

first story board

This is our begining of our first story board however different ideas have developed so we started again with our second story board

lighting

We might use a small flood light to create more lighting outside the tent so when filming inside the tent the light outside creates the morning light effct coming through the the tent, giving off a glowing light.

updated prop and costume list

For props we need items and other things to make the inside of our setting look like there has been sort of apocalypse these may include:
- Big boxes of simple and cheap food like soup.
-Messy empty boxes.
-Messy toiletries.
-Clothes.
-Debri.

We also need props to develop the character of our character and things he does such as the trap, for this we need:
-Axe - Adam
-White lense - Gil
-Tent - Gil
-Strings - Mima
-Bell - Frankie
-Cans - Owen

For our casting we decided to use adam (our media teacher) this is because he is suited well to our theme and idea that we came up with for what we wanted our character to look like, in the shoot he is wearing a contact lenses, various fake scars, and baggy clothing and big dirty boots.
We also agreed that Ewhurst place is the best place to shoot in because Cornhill and Bweb (the other houses) had too big hall ways and that i wouldn't look as effective with the string, Ewhurst had a long wooden corridor that would look better if we filled with a lot of string to make it more bold, it also has a large wooden door that we can use for the end clip.
