Creative Apps

Chapter Eleven

I am looking at creative technology to improve my blogging and my method of research and organisation. There are lots of apps online to aid this. 

A mind-mapping and organisation tool such as Dipity can help plan ahead for a shoot or reminders and act as a simple calendar. It is also useful for looking back at projects and timed projects. It can also be used to search for the history of artists and their context.

This is a timeline created to represent Nirvana's career. It shows the key points in the band and their members life. It's helpful to discover the context of the band without searching through pages of wikipedia pages finding the key events. 

It also allows you to add events that you think are missing and view the timeline as a text or flip book to see the photos.

To create an original cartoon and slideshow PowToon is incredible simple and impressive looking application.

The home page is simple and easy to follow.

My final comic style creation is made with Make Believe Comix It's a fun way to express a subject or answer FAQ's.

A presentation on the genres and projects COFFEE FILMS has released.

Link To Coffee Films [HERE]

Coffee Films is a great example of a British Independent Film Company because it started with two people filming on camcorders and has grown into a large successful company.

Coffee Films would distribute Evangeline to film festivals but also try to get cinema release and promote it via Social Networks. To make a larger profit Coffee Films could buy TV licenses and rights to online streaming.

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.

Changes In Shooting

Chapter Thirty-One

'I'm as mad as hell, and I'm not gonna take this anymore- I'm moving to Hawaii.'

What's Changed

Why are you going to film through the keyhole more rather than over the bath?

As a team we feel the opening sequence will be more mysterious if we film though the keyhole from young Evangeline's perspective. 

How will you end the sequence?

The final shot will be young Evangeline opening the bathroom door to see her mothers legs hanging out of the bath and it will cut to black very quickly.

 

Why change the death from drowning suicide to self harm (bleeding out) suicide?

It will make more sense and make it easier to film her dying above the water rather than drowning beneath the water.
