Time Management

Our first idea we had in mind was to do video but create an intro for a chick flick genre, basically a 'London themed Sex in the City'. We had plans for this idea and shot locations buit this meant we had yto travel and go to a number of different places, we couldn't film anything unless we took a train to london centre or till we went to a concert as that was one of our main ideas for filming. We then had second thoughts about this idea and how it would plan out, so we started to look at horror and decided that it would be better if we went with another idea of a Horror/Thriller film. We started our planning and research all over again even though we had already planned a lot for the chick flick genre.
In order for me and Emma Smith to get our main task finished before the deadline we created a plan so therefore we would not be wasting our time doing nothing when we could be using that time doing something relevant to the task. These were;

• Research into the Horror/Thriller genre
• Watch a selection of Horror/Thriller DVD intros
• Create and draw up a story board
• Write a script for the opening sequence
• Look and research locations and places to make sure that they are suitable
• Look and research different shots and angles
• Look at certain types of editing to make horror look realistic
• Start recording footage
• Upload footage to iMovie and begin to edit
• Go back and film more footage when needed
• Finish editing piece
• Edit to get the intro of the film to a two minute mark and include everything we have researched

if we then have extra time this is what we could do;

• Create a DVD cover for our film
• Create posters to advertise our film
