Day 1 of filming...

We started filming for our final thriller opening last week, we were taking shots inside my house shooting most of the interior shots that we will be needing, we will still need to take some more shots from inside the house such as the bathroom seen. where a fellow member of my group will be casually showering when a psycho creeps into the bathroom and murders her where she stands. Shooting the shower scene may be difficult at times because we need to make it look as realistic as possible and that will mean that the actress who will be playing the victim will need to loose some items of clothing or we could even just show her showering from above the neck, this would save the awkwardness of us trying to rein act the scene from psycho.

20TH FEBRUARY
The next shots that we will be taking will consist of the psycho staggering around the streets of bow looking for a house of his choosing, he will then casually walk up to the house in a suspicious manner and knock on the door we could either do that or we could go with the psycho sneaking into the house and then murdering his victim in the shower.

21ST FEBRUARY
On the day after that we will be filming the final interior shots from inside the victims house, these shots will consist of the psycho sneaking into the house and murdering the victim in the shower, we will try to use some of the techniques that they used in the world famous film psycho, where there is a medium shot of the victim sliding down the tiles in the bathtub leaving a trail of blood on the tiles. We can also get some shots of the shower head on the blood draining down the plug hole.


22ND FEBRUARY
On the following day of shooting we will travel up to embankment where we will be able to take all of our establishing shots that we will then be able to use at the very start of our film opening, we are planning to put the credits over the establishing shots in the way that they use the the opening sequence from the panic room, if we take panning shots of all the landmarks specified on the storyboard then im sure it will be the opening that we really wanted to create.

If we have time we will also be filming a scene where the psycho is in a plain white room inside the mental hospital, the psycho will be doing suspicious things such as scratching at the walls and hitting his head on the wall. I personally don't think that this scene will be necessary for our opening as i am sure that our audience will be able to work our for themselves that this person is a psycho, they will be able to tell that by just simply looking at the mental hospital, also they will be able to tell by looking at the way the psycho walks and even the small gestures that he makes.

1ST MARCH - 9TH MARCH
After we take the rest of these shots which I hope we will be able to take the first week we get back from half term we will then be able to edit out film opening using final cut, we will be able to arrange all of the shots that we did take in an order that not only makes sense but makes a pretty good suspenseful film opening (one that makes you want more). We will also then be able to add the finishing touches onto our film such as the credits and some of the sounds that I have already uploaded to blogger.
