Re-shoot Storyboard (7th Feb)

We re-shot our title sequence footage on 7th February 2012, on school premises as it was easiest for our actors. But, after editing the footage, we soon realized that it really didn't work.

Re-shoot 7th March

So, last night we had to reshoot some of the title footage because it just wasn't right and didn't fit in with the rest of the film's atmosphere. We storyboarded the shots we needed to do, as you can see below. Filming went really well and we got all the shots that we needed. Here's the storyboard we created for the purposes of the night....

Script Ideas (13/12/2011)

Although for our task a script is not needed, towards the end of the scene we plan to have some sort of brief conversation just to show how the main two characters interact. Here are our ideas so far (13/12/2011)...

Permission to Shoot...cont. (12/12/2011)

When we got a reply, Joe then rang the council and they told us to email another member of the council, which we did as you can see.

I think we're just planning to go ahead with filming as Mr Cole of Gravesham council informed us, the palce where we want to film is not their responsibility.

Weather Check (12/12/2011)

Although we've looked at the weather report for next week today, we're going to obviously check closer to the time of shooting. We had planned Tuesday to be our day for shooting outside so if it does start to rain, we'll work around it - and in the story, the weather actually has no correlation to the way we're shooting, so the reliability won't matter.

Permission to Shoot... (12/12/2011)

We sent this email last thursday and got a quick reply, but we've heard nothing since. I will try ringing them either tonight or tomorrow to confirm whether we can shoot/film at the industrial site in Gravesend.

Dead By Alliance - Shotlist (9/12/2011)

The shot list for the actual story done by Maisy, is shown below...

Below is a more detailed shotlist I conjured up to show what we were filmimg - the specific shots for certain days, what we need to film first on each day and I also sectioned the numerous scenes to make it easier to film in small chunks rather than taking on the whole thing.

I've got a hard paper copy of the above to use as a reference during filming.

Dead By Alliance - Storyboard (8/12/2011)

This is our storyboard...

~Maisy

Group Meeting (7/12/11)

Ok, so today, we discussed the details of our recce pictures and also the direction we plan to take in terms of actuall shooting. The storyboard was finished completely, though we all understood that shots and scenes may be changed in accordance with feelings on the day.

We've also found a great group of musicians who are willing to work with us to produce an original thrilleresque track to be used for our final thriller piece - Dead By Alliance. We'll be breifing them within the next week , and working from then on, on the track.

It was decided that we would experiment with different fields in the film process that we wanted to have a go at or felt we should get to grips with: So the filming will be primarily done by Joe on the 19th and Abbie on the 20th, with Maisy doing the main amount of editing in the first week of January.
