EDITING

We edited all of the filming that we have done so far, in particular using some cross fading shots to change scenes. When editing the dream scene, we decided to put the clip of the girl swooshing her hair to run over the clip of our antagonist playing with his knife. The impact of this shows that it is the antagonist dreaming about the girl. The fact that the antagonist is playing with a knife whilst dreaming about a girl shows that he is deranged and twisted. We had to make sure our filming was in the right order and that the clips of each scene aren't too long. We ended up cutting half of each clips and only using the important and best shots we have.

FILMING: LOCKER SCENE

In today's lesson we continued our filming. We set our scenes in a cloakroom of Waitrose where both Bryn and Elliot work. We used the boys changing room for these due to their coat pegs. We had a Waitrose sign stuck up next to the coat pegs so that the audience would recognize where it is supposed to be set.

These are screen shots of the scene we filmed in which Bryn is getting ready for his day at work. The picture above shows Bryn buttoning up his shirt whilst his face is covered to hide his identity. We thought this was a good shot as when Bryn puts the hat on credits appear to the side of him which looked very good. Also through this shot it becomes clear to the audience that Bryn is the protagonist. I came up with the idea of the shot with Bryn's face being hid behind the hate whilst i was filming, I felt this would be the best shot to introduce our character to the audience. from this shot I felt it would be a smooth transaction because as he puts on the hate we can see his face, so this is the perfect time to put Bryn's name up on the screen next to him.

As Bryn and Elliot work together we decided to film Elliot in this set also. Through this scene we tried to portray Elliot as the antagonist by showing him very angry and frustrated. I did this by filming a tilt pan from up to down which suggests a loss of power, highlighting his frustration.

Filming

 
Today we filmed our most important scene which shows the personality of our antagonist. We wanted to capture him working at the fish counter with a large sharp blade. We used the classroom to film in, using table with a black cloth over it to look more professional. We put trays onto the table then put ice all over them. We then got real dead fish and placed them onto the trays, we had the projector on behind our character with the Waitrose sign above/behind his head. This looked as close and professional to a fish monger than we could get.

Characterization
The way we filmed was very important as we needed to make sure that through this filming it would be obvious that the character was slightly deranged. We managed to show this through the way that we got our actor to handle the knife, as if he enjoyed to hold the knife.
