Location Confirmation

Chapter Thirty-Eight:

Location Confirmation

Today I found out the date for shooting my thriller has been moved to this friday so,

Friday 30th January

Which moves our date forward and leaves us less time to prepare, I have sent an email to the bathroom owner to confirm our shooting there and should hear back later today. I have received permission to use the Audi to film the car scene and driver and I am still awaiting permission to use a public wardrobe for costume. 

To film the one underwater scene we will need to find a go pro with waterproof housing and get permission to use it. I have someone in mind and will send an email requesting the use of it.

The keyhole has been made and is ready to use so shooting those scenes will be easy and are complete.

All our actors are available.

Slow-motion Scene

Chapter Thirty-Seven:

"Nothing is Impossible- The word its self says 'I'm Possible.'"

Slow Motion

For the shots where Michael is looking after young Evangeline it will be dramatic and tense to add slow motion, this will also add an artistic feature which I think is important for our film. The non-diegetic music will add to the tension.

Filming The Car Scene

Chapter Thirty-Six :

"If I had a world of my own, everthing would be nonsense..."

Car Scenes

To film the car for the car scene we need to make sure the angles are accurate and consistent. Continuity is key. It will also be important that the last shot you are able to see the shadow of the stalker but not is figure or his face. Possibly his feet so the right angle will allow us to see what we need to follow the plot.

FIlming Through A Keyhole

Chapter Thirty-Five :

'When people say "She's got everything!" - I have my answer, 'I don't have tomorrow.'"

Filming With A Keyhole

To create the idea of having young Evangeline watching her mother through a keyhole it will be important to build a big one to create that effect through the camera. It will most likely be built from cardboard or some tough material and will be big enough to be held in front of the camera.

This would be a great opening shot!

Designing A Set

Chapter Thirty - Four :

" A film is never really good, unless the camera is the eye of a poet. "

Building A Film Set

For a few shots in my opening sequence I will need to create a set to allow certain angles or shots to be taken.

It could be important to have a bath for the underwater shot.

Thriller Location

Chapter Thirty-Three:

"Leave when ready, not when told."

Location For Evangeline

Evangeline will likely be filmed at CORNHILL MANOR On 
FRIDAY 13TH FEBRUARY
It will also be necessary to film certain shots in the film studio- such as the bath shots, the underwater shot and the keyhole shot.
It may be possible to shoot the car scene in a car park to create a realistic setting.

CORNHILL MANOR

We would like to have the scene shot in the bathroom so it actually looks like a real bathroom. I would like to be able to see a sink and toilet etc. in the shot swell as a bath. It is supposed to look upper class and a real bathroom over a set built one would look much more suitable.

Thriller Costume

Chapter Thirty-Two:

"Impossible only means you haven't found the solution yet."

Costume & Props For Evangeline

For our thriller Evangeline, we need to organise props and costume as we will be shooting on FRIDAY 13th FEBRUARY 2015

We have decided to use a teenage girl to play YOUNG EVANGELINE and we will dress her in a child's dress and put a bow in her hair. To represent her purity we would like her to be in white, we would also like her hair to be tied back into a low pony tail. We will use minimum makeup.

To create YOUNG MICHAEL'S costume we will put a white shirt with a pair of chinos. This will show he is upper class but not modern. He is a older child at the time of MONA'S death. He will have his hair combed over.

We would like MONA to be in the bath at the time of her death so we plan to have her appear nude. Her hair and make up will be free and smudged to show she has been distressed. Her hair will be wet to start and end.

OLDER EVANGELINE, OLDER MICHAEL, And BROOKE Will all be dressed casually in the other part of the OS. They will all be dressed modern.
