Filming Diary

This is a diary which we recorded were we spoke about each day of filming. We discussed how well we though each scene went, any problems we came across, and how we overcame these issues.

Poster Experiment

We have already looked at photoshopping to achieve the desired look for our poster, as seen in the post below. We have now been looking at using a green screen to create a different look. Here is what we have come up with:

Filming Schedule – THE Walthams

Filming Schedule http://d1.scribdassets.com/ScribdViewer.swf" style="outline:none;" > http://d1.scribdassets.com/ScribdViewer.swf"> http://d1.scribdassets.com/ScribdViewer.swf?document_id=45496309&access_key=key-2nnzkm92c8kvcnvva1cr&page=1&viewMode=list" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="600" width="100%" wmode="opaque" bgcolor="#ffffff">

This is a copy of our filming schedule in which we have set dates for each scene of our soap opera trailer. We have included the time of filming and all of the actors needed for the scenes. We have also included maps for directions to each location. Everyone taking part in the filming has received a copy of this. Further organisation methods we have used include a meeting to discuss when everyone is free for filming, and a Facebook group has been made to give information to the actors such as what costumes to bring with them.

Poster Layout

We have considered all of the poster designs and decided to base our final idea on our second layout idea which consisted of the whole cast on a black background, with Georges eyes in the background looking down. We chose this because we thought it would have the best effect and gain the most attention as the black background looks mysterious and would draw people in. The eyes give a spooky feel to the poster and would make people want to know who's eyes they are and what they are looking at. We have created a basic mock up of the final layout to show what it will look like:




















This is the basis of our poster, the final copy will have the actual cast in it so there will be more people. The focal point will be Helen and Dan in the middle and there will be a spotlight shining on them to highlight them.
