The Book!

This is the book that we are planning to use as the investigators book. We are going to edit in our opening credits when we edit the whole piece together. I think this worked really well and will add to the effect of our finished title sequence.







Journal - 12th January 2011

In todays lesson we couldnt do much as there was only 6 people in!! All the others were on a trip and as I had a exam I couldnt go :( so today we just updated EVERYTHING onto our blogs and made sure our investigator book was finished! As Sarah was on the trip we couldnt start filming but we must start filming soon as we will then be behind our schedule!!
Here are the images of the places that we decided to use for our title sequence. These images show lots of possible places that we can use if one is busy.

The images below are the various places we could use for our desk scene.

The next set of images that we took was the area that we thought we could use for the stalking part of our title sequence.

Finally here are the images where you will see the struggle between the girl and her kidnapper. We have decided to shoot these in the dutch tilt shot which will think will give the edge to the scene thats needed.

Type of Audience

There are some questions which need to be asked before deciding the audience of our piece these include:
  • What kind of people may be interested in your story?
  • Young people, older people?
  • People from different communities?
  • Specific groups of people?
  • What else might your target audience go and see?
  • What would they watch at the cinema?
  • What would they watch on television?
  • Would you want to watch your film?
  • How would you rate the content of your film?
Q:What kind of people may be interested in your story?
A:I think the type of people who may be interested in our story would be those who enjoy the excitment of the unknown and the constant questioning of what may happen next.

Q:Young people, older people?
A:The age range which we decided to aim our film at was the over 15s, therefore we would expect above 15 year olds onwards. So our film is aimed at both young people and older people.

Q:Specific groups of people?
A:There is not a single specific group which our film is aimed at although we would not recommend it to those who do not enjoy the genre of crime, thriller or drama.

Q:What else might your target audience go and see?
A:Our target audience would most probably go see films within the genre's of horror, crime, realism, drama possibly period drama's and also thriller's. Films such as 'The Stepfather', 'Disturbia' etc.

Q:What would they watch on television?
A:There could be a range of programmes which our audience may go see from documentries on the topic of crime to social realism as our film relates to some issues which arise in society.

Q:Would you want to watch your film?
A:I would watch my film because it falls into the genre of film I enjoy watching, also there are constant climax's and cliff hangers throughout the film enabling the audience to want to know what is going to happen next. Also I would enjoy watching the film because it is the type of film which always keeps its audience on edge.

MORE CCTV photographs




Here are some more CCTV photographs that we took and edited in todays lesson . We plan to use these images but I don't believe that they are as successful as our other ones. We were unable to go outside because it was raining which meant that we were limited to the space we could use. We have decided to take more photographs when we start filming as then we will be able to be outside of school.
