communication

Me and Lucien would communicate through both text and blackberry messenger (bbm) so we could always make sure we both new what was going on and neither of us ever forgot what we were suppose to be doing.

Trailer Script

"I used to be known as the hustler...
going from bar to bar...
playing the game the way i felt it should be played....
but it wasnt all easy sailing, coming to a sudden end...
cos sometimes even the best...
get played"

An Epic Drama staring Tom Noad....
shows the story of a guy, that thought he had it all....
but lost it...

"No Please...
I can get your money back"

In cinemas Summer 2012

This is a rough idea of what we want our script to be for our trailer, we will use this as a guideline for when we are recording the soundtrack. The Italic font in quotation marks shows the quotes from the films that we are planning on using, and the other text shows what the main voice over will be telling the audience. we wanted to use quotes from the film as we felt it engaged more with the audience and told more of the story, getting the attention of the audience to want to come and watch the film.

Group Meeting

After viewing our sample scene and also starting the filming for our final draft, Lucien and I got together to discuss the situation of our actors. we came to the conclusion that our current actors (Bill Cooke and Connor Barclay) needed to be changed as they didn't work to our needs and expectations, so decided to get 2 new actors in (Richard Cartwright and Lewis Fincham) that would meet our needs so we could re-film.

Media Poster Analysis Research

Media poster analysis research
Reflection of Work: This piece of work is part of our research section, this involved us looking at posters from selected films similar to our own, to help us see the conventions needed and to also help us get ideas for our own poster. we looked at placements of Titles, Names, Images, Slogans and other items added. then going into more detail by talking about these conventions and how they all complement each other into representing the meaning and also the genre of the film. I felt that this was a very helpful task as it gave me an incite into the conventions used in film posters, giving me ideas of colours and fonts to use when making my poster, to make sure that I make my poster match my genre and my target audience.
