Music for our film opening

As a group we decided that we needed an uplifting and fun background song that would fit a teenage audience.

The first one we came across was quite repetitive and from the feedback we got we knew we had to change the song.Our final song we chose had a girl singing in the background which gave it more tone and it was catchy which is good because it draws more attention to the viewer. This song was called loving everything I find.

Another filming day

My media group went to film some more of our film opening on Thursday. We took advantage of the bad weather because it was rainy and dark and so we filmed some more. The rain created pathetic fallacy as our protagonist is feeling stressed. This part includes the actor Molly running to costa and running out again with her two coffee cups. The overall commotion of the traffic and people that passed by gave a good atmosphere. The shots we filmed were; mid shot,long shots, establishing shot and a pan that followed Molly running along the road.

We borrowed coffee cups from costa which made it verisimilitude. However after filming we realised that if the cups were filled with coffee it would have spilt. When we finished filming we began to edit and thought that it would be a good idea to have music or have a voice over. 

We used two cameras which was good as a result of  having two choices of film and this helped with continuity as we could look at the same camera angles at once.

Another idea  that we had is to have a clip of the bus drive past with the titles in the centre of the frame. Then Molly would run past as if she is pushing the titles out the way.
