Our Pitch

Our Pitches

Pitch 1: A group of friends involved in a murder, no evidence that they commited the crime. Their minds start eating away at them, will they break?

We wanted to do something along the lines of a murder mystery, especially Sarah, for me it didn’t feel right because I felt like something was missing. I wanted to do teen drama and mental illnesses, so we thought about it and just combined the ideas together in order to compensate both of us. We thought a group of teens commit a crime, that crime being murder or homicide, and they start losing their minds with basically the pressure that their life can be over if they get caught and found guilty. We could easily do this since there are multiple ways to do it, in other words it’s flexible. We can add conversations through text to make it feel more realistic and calls between them etc. The whole idea is a group of teens losing their minds and just being paranoid that even the smallest piece of evidence can be found or something for them to be accused of murder. They are always on edge ever since the murder that they all participated in.  

Pitch 2: A girl is in a long distance relationship with this guy who is cheating with her best friend and his girl best friend.

We are intrested in making this film because we see it this often but no one really talks about it that much about how they are feeling and the aftermath of cheating. One con is that after watching these types of movies, a girl might start worring about her body image and if she had a perfect body. Another con is tthat a girl might want to follow the idealization of what is protryaed in the movie. They might want to follow what the movie has protrayed, a young girl. Another pro is that this type of film servers as a great escape and fantisies for viewers. Another pro is that people watch these types of movies help people escape from realty and to get swept up in a good love story with beautiful images and music.

We choose pitch 1, A group of friends involved in a murder, no evidence that they commited the crime. Their minds start eating away at them, will they break? We choose this pitch because it had more of an appeal to both of us rather than pitch two. My partner and I also thought it would be easier to film this pitch. We also put more thought into this pitch than what we did for our second pitch. My partner and I also like to see how those type of movies end.



Signing Off,

Kay.

Title Research: The Eternal Daughter

The Eternal Daughter  1. What titles are displayed during the opening sequences?      The Eternal Daughter title card, A film by Joanna Hogg, actor and actress credit, produced by,  co producers, and editor. 2. What images are prioritized in the opening sequence?     A car on a road, and trees in a bunch, greyish brown background and grey background with a title card. 3.  What connotations do these images carry?       It is slowed to makes you feel anxiety. The sequence is gives you anxiety and suspense that you want to wait until it stops.   4. How does the film establish a feeling of the genre from the outset?     By putting up a very hazy scene throughout the introduction, the movie creates a sense of the genre. It has a hazy beginning that makes viewers uncertain of what is happening and what is happening. Suspense can result from this, which contributes to the genre's sense of adventure, fantasy, and action ...

Storyboard

My storyboard of the girl next door! Scene 1: This will be the first scene and this is where the main actor will appear. It will fade in from black to sync with the audio since it also fades in. It will be at eye level and it will be a close up to show to emphases the subject's eyes because of a lyric "red eyes". The set will be a road in order to cut into the next scene. Scene 2: After it cuts away from the close up we move into a medium long shot at eye level. The actor will be drinking a cherry coke and be stumbling along the road. The medium long shot is to show that she is still wearing the same clothes according to the lyrics. Scene 3: This scene she is up against the bedroom door looking distress. This will be at eye level and it will start at as a close up then zoom out in order to transition into the next scene. She is in this position because she is wondering about a certain thing, that thing being something unpleasant. Scene 4: The next scene will pan into her...

Almost!

We are almost done! As of writing this we are almost finished. We had completed filming around a week ago. Now we are so close to finish editing. Like we said previously, we were to continue adding the footage together so then we can make it easier when it came to transitions and audio. We have put in the title cards, and are only missing a few. For the title cards that we have done, we have added transitions for a couple to the title cards and only a footage is left to edit and put together. Right now we are moving things around, because we are slightly worried about the time limit but so far we haven't crossed it. But again there is that slight worry! We do have a way around it if it were to happen. We have sort of an idea of which scenes we can cut from the footage. We also can speed up footage and cut down some footage in order to make time. We have thought on it, just in case if it happens. Right now we aren't over the limit but again we still have footage to add. That foo...
