Schedule and my role

Saturday 19th Nov; Chiswick Park Station, White City. Film the drug scene, and anything new ideas.10am - 3pm
Sunday 20th; Hounslow, Humaira's house, 11am - 3pm
Characters needed: Melody and Sheida..
Saturday 26th; Film Melody in hospital, running scenes with Renee and Melody. Also film the chair spinning scene and where Melody knocks on the door.
Sunday 27th; Knife scene with Daniel, and argument scenes with Daniel and Melody. Melody disappearing.
We also had an unexpected filming day in February where we filmed a Melody and Renee best friend relationship scene, and her mother shouting at her.

We all had an equal role in filming and production. As we were in a group of three we thought it would be a good idea for us to star the protagonists in the trailer. Therefore I took on the role of Melody and Humaira took on the role of Renee. We got a friend to fill in and help us shoot all the scenes which involved Daniel (Renees boyfriend) when I was in front of the camera, Humaira and Sheila took on the role to film and we as a team decided on where the camera would go, what shot type we would shoot at and whether we should use high key or low key lighting. When Humaira was in front of the camera me and Sheida took on the role of filming and giving direction to them especially during the argument scenes. I thought it would be good to take on the role behind and on camera as you get a feel of what it's like both ways and you get more involved in both aspects of putting the trailer together.

Most of our trailer is in chronological order because when we carried out the survey most people said they would prefer it to be like that however we didn't do it all that way because we wanted to keep the suspense going.

Throughout our trailer there are some scenes which Include diegetic sound such as characters speaking, Renees phone going off when Melodys mum called because we thought that this would give it more life and show a slight amount of realism. We also had non diegetic sound such as the trailer soundtrack which starts off slowly then builds as the scenes get faster and pacier. We also decided to include the sound from a heart monitor when Melody was in hospital because we improvised this scene in a bedroom and wanted to bring it more to life.

As a group we wanted summit entertainment to be our institution because we looked at many trailers and thought it would fit in well with ours. After watching the Breaking dawn movie trailer, we decided to use summit as it shows a 'professional' side to our trailer as a whole.
