final day filming

 Final day filming 



On our final, final day filming we were able to add the finishing touch's to our film, we were able to get some nice shots of the two main characters walking towards the telephone box which works nice in the opening sequence. We also needed to re-shoot some shots of some scenes that we deleted, so had some new adjustments to scenes. This includes shots in cars, bathrooms and another bed room. We will not use all of them but having the option to choosing between two or three can be good when editing. The actors were as brilliant as they were in the first days of filming, and helped set some of the scenes up in communication with the directer.

Evaluation


 Evaluation 

1. In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products? 
- In our film we show two teenage boys being mischievous by bunking school and losing their phone. this is also shown in the back to the future opening. 
- We also have modern music which would attract to our target audience, this can also be shown in the back to the future opening. 
-We show how old they are by mentioning school and how they have missed it, showing their age. This is also shown in the back to the future opening. 
-We do not however show modern clothes as they do in back to the future, as the young boy wears modern clothes from the time, we however have smart casual clothes. 

2. How does your media product represent particular social groups?
-Our media product represents teenage boys as being mischievous by bunking school and losing their phone, this can be seen as a stereotype for teenage boys when they are out of school. 
-Our product also represents teenage girls as being having more self respect than what other films portray them as. 
-It also portrays teenage boys wanting to get with other girls their age and are desperate to get with those girls. 
-We also represent that not all teenagers are the stereotype that everyone thinks they are, we done this by having one character the opposite of what people might think.

Further filming

 Further Filming  

After looking at our film we decided that maybe we could use some more professional and longer scenes rather then just using lots of scenes in one go. Therefor we have contacted our actors who have agreed for one final filming day, which will take place tomorrow. In this day we will also have a photo-shoot for our advertising campaign, which will include a poster, teaser and trailer.

Further 25 word pitch development

 Further 25 word pitch development 

After looking at my previous attempt at a 25 word pitch for our film 'Speed Dial', i decided that i should try and come up with another pitch in order to have a wide range to choose from. 

'When Connor and Craig went to make a phone call in a ordinary phone box, they never realised that their lives will change forever'  

This was my most recent attempt tat a 25 word pitch, i will now look into either developing this pitch or a previous one.
