Shooting Schedule Oblivious

Storyboard

In Friday’s lesson, in our groups, we presented our ideas to our class. After each group, the groups were given feedback. Our groups idea was liked by our class mates but we did have some constructive feedback that we have taken aboard.
Our main concern is how we are going to find a grave stone with the character name we have chosen which is Tyler Johnson and that people that are around in the cemetery may not enjoy us filming there. We have overcome the grave stone crisis as we are going to film the grave stone from the back so the name can't be seen. However, our teacher helped us with our second dilemma and told us to be very polite in the cemetery as he doesn't want us to make others feel uncomfortable. Another concern was about our choice of clothing for our ghost, our class thinks we need to make sure we portray him as a ghost and not a average teenager.
We have taken on board all these points and hope to make our opening sequence better based on this feedback.

Moodboard for Oblivious

This is our moodboard for our film, Oblivious. The images we have here are there just to set a mood and an idea to which the audience associates with the film and its theme of death and darkness. The image in the centre of the moodboard is a picture of a montage showing two best friends as they've grown up together over the years, we chose this image as we too are looking to do a montage of our two characters as they were also best friends.

Preliminary task

Our group made this clip as part of our preliminary task to demonstrate our editing skills and show our understanding of techniques and tricks such as the 180 degree rule and continuity , the clip shows a pan , the opening of a door from many different angles and also a shot reverse shot .

Preliminary task

In today's lesson we were told that we were going to film our preliminary task. We got into our groups and came up with ideas, ours included a student who was late for his lesson so we had a pan shot of him arriving to his lesson which then cut to the classroom in which the teacher is teaching, he gets told off and later sits next to his classmate who had been texting urging him to hurry to lesson (this will all be shown in the clip to come) they have a short conversation about why he was late. The camera angles we used for the dialogue was an over the shoulder shot as well as a reverse shot. Hopefully the video will be up by the end of Fridays lesson as we will be editing during the lesson.
