Characters

Character Profile
A man around 30+ years old, I want him to come across as a business man clearly going to work. Don't need to know a name of much about him.
Two children around the age of 6, at primary school. Don't need to know names of them either as they're only going to be in one shot.
A lady around the same age as the man, only a small character so no information on them needed.
Casting choices
My neighbour as the main character.
William and a friend as the two children.
A friend as the lady.

February Mid Point Task

This is my February Mid-Point task, my scenario was for someone to wrap an awkward shaped present. The task itself I found easy and only took me a matter of minutes to film, the editing also didn't take me too long. I used iMovie to edit my scene rather than premier pro like my other editing tasks, I found iMovie easier to use that premier pro because I could do it on my phone and there was no glitches or loading. I was happy with my final outcome but the only thing I would change is the lighting of when I filmed it, I felt like it was slightly too dark ad dingy but over all I was pleased.  

cuts and transitions

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ECJ1Fqas1c ] We watched this video in class and then had a go at filming out own. I worked with lewis, he did the filming and I did the acting. The cuts and transitions we attempted to do were; basic cut,  match on action, whip pan and jump cut. I edited it and cut away and sped up some parts to create some of the transitions I wanted.

Applications

Mise - En - Scene Application Setting - Outside by the fence, possibly shots of him at home. Costume - Different outfits to show that its occurring on different days. Hair and Make up - Bruised eyes and both the man and woman. Lighting - Natural light is it is being filmed outside. Character Expression - Confusion toward the voices, pain when being poked in the eye, awkward looks between man and woman. Props - The stick he is poked with, the chalk the children write with. Sound Application There wont be much dialogue in my film, just the voices of the children really. I might add some music over the top of some sections. With the voices I think I will prerecord it and add it over the top of the scenes so I don't have to have the children there every time I'm filming. Narrative Application I want my film to have a linear narrative as I want it to be clear that he walks past the fence everyday, one after the other.
