Organisation of filming

Each member of our group has a different specified role to play in the production of our title sequence. Sam Warren is in charge of the location, James Lawley will gather the props and costumes, James Scott had done some in depth research into the types of camera angles and techniques used in the horror genre and, I have research lighting techniques that are present and useful when trying to create a certain emotion among the audience. Although, we have clearly specified roles to play we will still give an overall judgement on how we film certain scene and shots by deciding with a majority vote. Our group has decided to film the majority of the title sequence over the Christmas holidays and maybe some before we break up if possible. A huge problem we could face when dealing with continuity is the drastic change in weather due to the time of year, it could be raining one night and frosty the next making it noticeable to the audience that scenes were filmed on different nights taking away from the immersion. We may not be able to control the weather but we can use different sources of weather forecasts for the days we want to film a certain scene and, look at possibilities of different types of weather to decide which nights are best to film on. Another crippling problem we face is making sure the dates we are going to be filming on are suitable for our 2 actors. We will try to counteract this by communicating with the actors, of which we are friends with, and try and negotiate times they are available to film. The actor who is going to play the victim as already replied and said he is available for filming over the holiday, however we are still waiting for a response from the actor who will play the antagonist. Once we have filmed our title sequence we should be able to starting editing it when we get back to school.
