In today's lesson we edited our film. We cut some of the unnecessary clips and made some other clips shorter because our film went over 2 minutes. We added music which Shahina, one of the team-member, made. We edited some of the shots, music and effects.

Peek-a-Boo

This is what our scary character looks like. We chose to go for this look because it matches with he title of our film as well as the image that we were going for.

Grudge Girls

This is an image from the film Grudge. We used this image because it gave us an idea of what are main, scary character should look like.

20/1/10

In today's lesson we filmed part of our scary video. The part we filmed was when the business man aka (Aminul) was coming from work and going through the graveyard. We couldn't film much because the battery on our video camera was low but we made a dicision that we're going to film later on this week maybe or the next week.

Hide and Seek - Research

We have researched on this film because this fits our chosen genre which is thriller/horror.

"After the suicide of his wife, the psychiatrist Dr. David Callaway (Robert De Niro) decides to move with his traumatized daughter Emily (Dakota Fanning) from New York to the country to give more attention to her. In their huge old house, Emily finds a new and violent invisible friend called Charlie, making David very concerned with her mental state".

Characters:
-Main character is Dakota Fanning, the little girl.
-She seems vulnerable and very easy to make her cry and upset
-The fact that she is lonely after her mothers death and that she is 'Traumatized', is perfect because it is her weakness.
-The creaters could use this to start the storyline
- She is also represented as being scared, weak and vulnerable

Who is the main character in our production?
-Aminul is the main character in our movie
-He is representing a working - class gentlemen
-Shahina is the dead lady who follows Aminul

Why we changed the conventions is because:
-We want to challenge the stereotypes of women being weak and men being the heroes
-We want something different so the audience be intrigued and interested
-We also want the audience to be engaged to the movie
