First Draft Results

Results:

After viewing our first draft we have decided there are things we need to change like:
  • Make our film longer
  • Change "The Captive" colour to a colour that matches and stands out in our film, like the glow sticks, so bright yellow and green
  • Change our titles font, to one that matches our genre, rather than our generic font
  • Have more shot types in our film

We have already included: 
- A Pan from ceiling to floor showing glow sticks 
- A Close-up of some glow sticks  
- A Pan across and up the wall with a glowy texture dripping from walls. 
- A Pan of medium shot eye level from Nico to Alexis slow (music begins and builds up tension.) 
- A Close up of Alexis with a steady shot, shows her struggling
- A Birds eye shot of floor and glow sticks (door banging sound as it opens you see light and can see Scarlett for the first time.)
- Blurred focus as X walks into room from Alexis' perspective ( as she's dazzled by light, hear heartbeat pick up.) 
- Watching from view of Alexis (this is an undershot as Alexis is looking up at X)
- An Over the shoulder shot of X as he kills Nico, 
- Camera pans still a high shot now onto Alexis as she cries and screams.
- Camera again at view of Alexis (hear a really loud heartbeat)
- Gun is pointed at camera to symbolise it being in Alexis' face (so from point of view of Alexis, heartbeat continues for 4 seconds, signalls she is killed.)

We plan to add more footage to expand our storyline more, also to make it more tense and have a better build up. Within the footage we are goin to have different types of shot aswell. We have decided to add in flashback, but only in small snipits, as if people are remembering the past, so for example, people running through a forest, the shot of just the peoples feet. Also shots of just close up faces, with expressions to show what they were feeling at that time, it should hopefully also make the audience want to know whats going on at that moment, therefore having a build up, like why that character looks scared or shocked, etc.


We have added:
- A Pan of the location (woods)
- A medium point of view shot of X stalking Alexis (see X through trees)
- A close up point of view shot  Alexis running away from X (see ground moving)
