Credits

To create the credits for my thriller I used software called motion. It has lots of different fonts on it that and actions that can make your writing move around. For the beginning of my thriller I used a pre made title sequence and just edited in what I wanted it to say but the rest I created myself in motion.

 

Music

To create the music for my thriller I am using software called garage band. I used several sequences of the music they already had on the software and edited it down to fit with my thriller. It was helpful because it has the basic sound effects for example with in my thriller the girl goes into the shower so therefore I need the sound effect of a shower which it had. 

Editing

After I had finished filming my thriller scenes I then went on to edit it. To edit my footage I used a programme called FinalCutPro, which is a programme made by Apple.inc

I started with just getting used to FinalCutPro, and then started to edit my footage. I started with just chunking it together and then putting fades in.

I then had a slight technical glitch. After I had saved my work I took my memory card out and all my footage went offline. I then had to spend an hour getting it all back. I also lost some of my edited footage in the process.

Filming

I filmed with my actors this weekend. I got most of the filming done but had a few dodgy shots which i may have to re-film, but over all I am very pleased. I managed to film all my footage in one day which is a success.


I really like the floor shot of the girl walking along the side of the pool. Even though it wasn't intended I like the lighting in my filming it gives it an creepy feel to it. 


Some of the filming wasn't too great but I will be able to edit that out. 

Shooting Schedule

This saturday my actors are coming round to my house so we can start shooting. 

I hope to get all of my filming done. I will be mainly filming  the swimming pool scene but will have to film in the evening when it is dark. 

I can film the inside parts in the light. so it wont be too time consuming. 

5:00 actors arrive, go though a briefing of what they are supposed to be doing

5:30 start filming the first and last scenes from inside

6:00 (when dark) film the pool house scene 

7:00 film balcony shots when it really is dark

8:00 look over footage and make sure it is all okay... maybe take more footage (if need be) 

Letter of Concent

I will need consent from my actors for them to appear in my thriller, this means that they need to agree to being in my video. This is an example of the letter

I _________________ agree to partake in the filming and allow the public viewing of Ellie Sell's AS media thriller. She may post her video on her blog.

Storyboard

This is my story board for my thriller. I think it quite clearly explains what will happen.
