New Audio Clip

After getting audience feedback, someone suggested that we find a different piece of music to be played at the beginning of the sequence as the one we used creates too much tension. Therefore we got another track off the same website that had given us permission. (www.freesfx.co.uk)

Audio clip

This is a video of the sound we are going to be using in the background of our opening sequence video.
"The sound clip that we have chosen has been downloaded from www.freesfx.com. The file is called 'Spooky Film Theme - Scary yet tension building'. We have chose it for our video as it fits in with the
genre of our opening sequence. We emailed the owner of the website and got permission to use the sound file on a blog that is going to be viewed by the public."

Audio

We have found a sound track online that we will be using in our project. It is called ‘Spooky Film Theme - Scary yet tension building’, downloaded from www.freesfx.com. We looked on the terms and conditions of website, and found that we are able to use the soundtrack on a blog that is open to be viewed by anyone. As well as finding the conditions, we also emailed the owner of the website asking for permission, and got a reply saying that we have their permission to use the piece of music for our opening sequence.

Test Camera Shots

I have taken some shots of around the location where we will be filming, in order to get an idea of what our opening sequence will look like. Whilst taking these shots, lighting was not taken into consideration as we are simply focusing on the rooms in which we will be filming. 

The shots I have taken, were roughly made to match some of the shots in the storyboard. Although they are not exactly the same, they are where they will be filmed.

Shot of someone logging into Facebook - Point Of View Shot

This shot consists of someone logging into the social networking site Facebook, however it is a point of view shot, and you can't see the character logging in. The username that is used is 'sectretss91' which is also a fairly mysterious username, therefore making the audience wonder who it is that is logging into the site.

The bedroom used to show the main character on her laptop - Long Shot

This shot is of the bedroom of the main character. It gives audience an idea of what sort of person she is, and judging the room, they would see her as someone fairly girly, with pink flowers on the wall, a dressing table and flowery bed sheets.


The kitchen where they go for dinner and the 2 sisters have a conversation - Long Shot

This is the room used when the 2 girls have a shot-reverse-shot conversation. It is fairly modern therefore showing the audience that the film is set in modern times. There are sets of lights on both sides of the kitchen therefore making it a good place to film as you can also see the characters clearly.


The main characters dressing table - Medium Shot

The is the setting used where the main character talks to someone on her laptop. She is sat at her dressing table on facebook. This gives the audience an insight on the girls life by showing them the items she has on her dressing table; these would be perfume, make-up, jewellery, photos and other little things. This may get the audience thinking that she a character who cares about her appearance, and cares a lot about her family.



The sofa where father and daughter have a conversation - Long Shot

The main characters sister and their dad have a conversation in the living room, on this sofa watching TV. It is a fairly average living room, showing the audience that they are a normal family.

Opening Sequence Title Development

The titles we are going to include in our opening sequence will the producers, and who is starring in the video. They will look something like this:

I have chosen the spooky font because it matches the genre of the film. I plan to have the fonts animated to fly onto the screen, or have the letter appear one by one giving the impression that it is being typed. I also plan to have a spooky soundtrack playing whilst the titles are being shown.
