Production Logo Final Design


This is the final design for the shooting schedule
Also this is long overdue, but it's here now.

What Kind of Film Institution Would Distribute Our Media production of a Film Noir Opening?

Adam, Robert and I feel that our film opening if made into a full film would be distributed by a British company. We think this as our opening is of low budget and there are many British institutions out there that produce low budget films for TV. The institute that we would want to produce our opening would be Film4.

 

We want Film4 to produce our opening as they have there own production line named Film4 productions and they have produced a few low budget films. Films they have produce include Borat: Cultural Learning’s of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan, Bruno, Four Weddings and a Funeral, This is England, Train spotting and two well known films, The last King of Scotland and Slumdog Millionaire.

 

We think that a Hollywood production company wouldn’t be best for our opening. This is because they produce big budget films and the films they produce are always widely released in cinemas and with our opening being an independent film and low budget we believe that it wouldn’t give out a big profit if mass released. So if Film4 Produce our film opening it would be released to a select few cinemas in the UK, from this point if the film was received well and we made a profit from the release it would then be massed released by the production company, if no profit is made by the release then the production company would pull the film from the cinemas and would then either be released on DVD or shown on the production company’s TV channel Film4.

Shooting Schedule


This is a way overdue shooting schedule but it does have to be on the blog regardless.

Programs we used


This shows a track we made in garageband. Each of the sections of the track increase in pitch to create suspense whilst the gunshot at the end symbolizes what the scene will be about. We created many others tracks in garageband but this is just a screenshot of one of them. We edited the pitch and the tempo for this one and for others we just mixed in a lot of different tunes from the same genre and listened to how they sounded and removed or added more as was required to create a track appropriate to Film Noir.

This shows us working on the video during a chase scene we have a few titles and a lot of the scenes have been put into the correct order. During the creation of the film all the titles were added to the corresponding places and a few of the scenes were removed and edited and swapped for others.We recorded extra scenes to bring the total time of the video to the standard two minute mark, it was originally over that but due to excessive editing it was shortened to two minutes.

Risk Assessment

This is the risk assessment to show the risks that can occur during our filming and how they are to be avoided.

Errors

Had some problems with the moving over of the risk assessment from Excel to Blogger but it should be done soon.
