today we uploaded our footage to the macs we had 6:05 mins in total of footage and a total of 24 clips so we can start to edit the clips together

On Sunday 13th March we got all of are equipment ready and our group went to Wicksteed park to start filming. We got quite a bit of filming done but then it got to dark to carry on as the cameras were not picking up any light. So we packed up and organised to go the next day to finish. and we finished our filming

2 possible openings

Opening 1.

Three friends go on a fishing holiday to Canada. Their all alone in the wilderness with only a mysterious creature in the deeps of the waters for company. Two friends go of to get firewood and return to just a empty camp fire and ruble from where their friend has been dragged to maybe his death.

Opening 2.

A group of friends go on a camping holiday where they will be staying in a log cabin owned by one of their parents. Before they get to their log cabin they come across a mysterious abandoned car left in the woods but their is no car tracks or roads into the forest. " How did it get their" ...

Are group has made the decision to go with Opening 1. as we believe it gives us a great opportunity  to create a tense and scary opening for are teen audience viewers.

Our opening two minutes of our horror film is based on horror films, we need to find information on the film classification and what is allowed and suitable for 15 certified films.
I used the British Board of Film Classifications website. www.bbfc.co.uk/

 The information below is taken from the website about the 15 classification:

 

Discrimination - The work as a whole must not approve disriminatory language or behaviour.

Drugs - Drug taking may be shown but the film as a whole must not promote or encourage drug misuse. The misuse of easily accessible and highly dangerous substances such as aerosols is likely to be unacceptable.

Horror - Strong threat and menace are permitted unless sadistic or sexualised.

Imitable behaviour - Dangerous behaviour (e.g. self-harming) should not dwell on detail which could be copied.

Language - There may be a frequent use of strong language. The strongest language may be acceptable if it is justified by context. Aggressive or repeated use of strong language may not be accepted.

Nudity and Sex - Nudity may be allowed in a sexual context but without strong detail. Also sexual activity may be portrayed without strong detail. Strong references may not be acceptable unless it is justified by context.   

Violence - Violence may be strong but should not dwell on the infliction of pain or injury. Strongest gory images and strong sadistic or sexualised violence are unlikely to be accepted.

Theme - All themes are allowed providing that they are appropriate for 15 year olds

In my lesson on Wednesday, we had to start to think about the opening titles of our horror film.
I started by watching 3 different opening films on the website http://www.artofthetitle.com/
