First Production Meeting

Today we sat down in our groups and discussed all of the ideas that we had come up with last lesson.  We put them together and added to them to make them better than they already were. Everyone has input in saying what was best and what they would like to do with each of the ideas. We even got rid of some of them as we thought that they would be hard to film. A few of the ideas we decided where to cliche. Some of our newer ideas where:

1) Have a piece of paper blowing across a ghost town (very empty place). The piece of screwed up paper stops; the camera then zooms in on it. It’s a Wanted poster with a picture of a man placed on it. The piece of paper carries on rolling, until feet obstruct it. The person who is printed on the piece of paper picks it up and the camera rolls up the body, up to the face to reveal the man from the poster in real life.



2) A young girl in going on a run. She has her iPod on very loud and we want the audience to focus on the sound of her breathing heavily. You then see just a camera and hands taking pictures of her.  She doesn't realise and carries on running to find a barn and decides to go in and have a look. When she goes in she see’s loads of pictures of herself throughout the duration of her life and the audience sees her closely looking at them. She then freaks out and runs and you just see then man looking at her. As the woman is running the camera cuts back and forth to her, to a zoomed in shot of the mans hands pinning up photos of the woman’s everyday life. With red string leading to a new photo.


3) Another idea was to have a man eating sushi in a bar. His food comes out and he eats it. He looks very smartly dressed. We then zoom in on one of the chefs putting alpha particles on the sushi. The chef then gives the food to waiter to give to this man sat at the bar. The guy that eats the sushi, his vision starts to go blurry and we see that on the camera and then you just see a blur. Then for sound have someone shouting but in a fade ‘call an ambulance’.

4) An old man retracing his past in a field where he fought in a battle at the age of 18. Skips to flash back of people invading his base, he hides but all the other soldiers die. This could be interesting because of the different eras used and we could make it quite clear about going back in time.
