Withheld - Rough Edit

Below is the rough edit of our final film opening. We have filmed all of the footage and have produced this edit to see what our final film could look like. Obviously we need to make some tweaks and we shall be re-shooting some footage also. Over the next few weeks we shall be producing our final edit of the film using feedback received by our peers to make any necessary changes.

Preparing For The Shoot

Before we start filming we need to consider what equipment we shall need and who shall be taking on what role.

We have decided to use Josh's Panasonic HDC-TM10 camera for several reasons. Firstly, it is HD (High Definition), this means that the quality will be superior to a standard DV camera. This will enhance the final quality of our film and will also be helpful when filming at night.

We will also need a tripod in order to keep the camera steady and aid us when we need to pan. We have booked a tripod from school and have chosen the one with the smoothest movement to ensure that we don't get jump during a pan.

We will also need a tripod adapter to affix the camera to the tripod.

Finally we need a tracking dolly during the curtain scene to create an effective zoom effect.

Below are the roles we shall be taking during our film:

Myself - I shall be acting as director and assisting with sound.

Holly - Holly shall be our camera operator.

Josh - Josh will be chief-editor and will be responsible for scripts.

Sam - Sam is responsible for managing continuity and props.
