Evaluation Question 7
Since the preliminary, I have understood many things such as we should always stick to our plan , if we don't then everything will get muddled up. I experienced that when I first filmed. we should always stick to the plan the storyboard.
During the process I also learnt about many camera techniques such as match cuts, the 180 degree rule. establishing shot, close up, low angle and many more. Whilst filming our opening we had to carefully think about our mise en scene, lighting and editing. since the preliminary we had to think about it so we dont make it too difficult.
This was when we done the prelim, this was how are lighting became.
And this was when we were filming out thriller opening, so you can tell the difference between the first time and the second.
Well when were filming our prelim our lighting at the beggninig wasn't too good it was too dark. that's why we kept it in mind and remembered to have a better lighting area.
The mise en scene of our prelim well there wasn't much. However with our film we had to be careful that we had everything. The was a problem with our location, but then we had a back up plan. We made sure that we have the right props, everything was laid out properly.
And during the editing process we didn't find it too difficult to put it on order. The difficult part was when we had to do the little things and when we had to put the sound and credits in. we never done it for our prelim thats why we ha a bit of difficulty when we were doing it. especially sound.
Our camera angles we had to be careful, because in the bathroom there were many mirrors. we had to position the camera in the right place. and also so its hidden and cannot be shown. We did find it difficult to actually find the 180 degrees rule, firstly we didn't no which side was right.
Overall I had learnt a lot of things during the process of filming my opening. I enjoyed as well, and also now that I have learnt about match cuts, jump cuts whenever i'm watching something. I found it much easier to notice them now. I would say that from my prelim I have gained a lot more skills. like the 180 degrees and many more things. I would say in our final production i have learnt a lot and our final outcome came out to be very positive.

Evaluation - Question 1
In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?
In our opening we made sure that we followed the conventions of an opening. We didn’t challenge or change the order as we thought it would be best to keep it simple and not over step it and make it complicated for ourselves.
- Production company ident
- Distribution company ident
- Music associated with those idents
- List of credits - directors, actors, casting etc..
- Title of film
- Find out where its set (location)
- Introduce main characters
- Find out hints about the storyline/situation/narrative
- Sets the mood and tone and outs into place the genre
We didn't challenge the convention of title sequences, down below are some pictures that I have put together with Our film on top of screen grabs of the film 'The Roomate'.. As you can see we followed the title sequence exactly and we even had similar font -it being simple white font, mostly coming up in the corners.
CONVENTIONS OF A TITLE SEQUENCE
- Production Company/ IDENT
- Production Company -Titles
- Production + Distribution
- Title of film
- Cast

YAY WE'RE FINALLY FINISHED!
Our Thriller Opening: THE WOMAN
Sound editing - Soundtrack Pro.
This is when we were adding sound to our opening. Firstly we did find some difficulties in choosing the right sound, we just couldn't pick out the right sound. However eventually we found it and now our sound is complete.

It was very fun and a whole new experience but I must admit I'm glad it's over so now its just the editing process to go :D -(Selina Khatun)
GROUP 40.
transforming our Killer
Because we are using intertextuality from film 'The Step-father'...making sure our transformation of our killer had to go really well, it was really important..we wanted to make a big impact, so the audience can tell that she HAS changed!
Making her look scruffy, putting dirt marks (Brown eyeshadow) on her face..
When she starts transforming..
Fully tranformed.
Marzana Ahmed - Our main actress (the killer)
From scruffy to this.. :D
We were really pleased of the outcome..

OCD killer
We thought that one of the characteristics of our Killer is that she is OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder/Disease)
So when setting out our props we tried to imitate what and person with OCD would do and make it super neat!

Second day of filming
Second day of filing, was very good - especially since the first day didn't go so well..
We were super excited!
We followed our story board exactly and everything went to plan.

Just in our location....
Finishing off some of the scenes..
Back-up Location
Lucky enough..we did plan ahead...and these are some pictures of our back-up location. They actually look very similar to the ones we were going to originally do it in..
First day of filming :D
Our first day of filming was pretty hectic..and nothing was going to plan..
:D
Still on our way to the location... :D
- We had really bad luck today, the traffic was really bad and we were on the bus for more than an hour when it should of been an 1/2 hour journey and tpo top it off the bus had to terminate...and we were no where near our Location. . .
Ohhh nooo :'(
Marzana here explaining, that we were now taking the tube( 2 trains) to our location because of the bus..
(On the 2nd train)
FINALLY we got to our location and Tadaaaa....
It was closed :(
(And it started to rain)...It really was our bad luck day..
I guess it is our fault, we never thought out of the 'What could go wrong' list that our location would fail us, we were really disappointed.
Although it was closed we still filmed a scene of our killer walking towards the gate and hopefully in the editing process, we will match the clips so it follows through with our bathroom scene..

Production schedule
''The Women''
When we were first brainstorming our film we first though we would have a male killer as that is what is most common..but we thought it would be interesting to have a female killer as we don't really see much of that in films these days.
So that is why we decided to call our film 'The woman' as it doesn't give much away and is fairly simple and easy to remember.
We wanted our idea to be unique and different.
I actually watched a documentary of Myra Hindley who is still known as Britain's most notorious female killer and weirdly enough it gave me the idea that we should use a female instead of a male as most people wouldn't expect it and some forget what females are actually capable of.

So that is why we decided to call our film 'The woman' as it doesn't give much away and is fairly simple and easy to remember.
'The stepfather' Inspiration
The first three minutes of 'The stepfather' really inspired us for the basis of our whole idea..
I love the way he transforms himself in the beginning from looking so rough to a completely different person. In the opening of our own film this is the kind of thing we would like to achieve..So we want to make sure that the transformation in our character is very obvious.

THE PITCH.
This is our pitch for our thriller, it includes the storyboard, pictures of our location, out target audience, which specific sub-genre and a brief outline. Above are screen grabs from our prezi.
