During our first planning meeting, we wrote a shot list, started to write a script and tested out some of the shot types that we had in the shot list.
One of our shots features our protagonist, Lila, filming herself on her phone. We took some photographs from different angles which allowed us to show both Lila and the phone videoing her. Although we liked this angle best, her hands are more prominent in the frame than the phone and therefore we will have to work around this.
We also started to write the first draft of our shot list and script, in preparation for our test shoot this weekend.
- We included the sunrise shots at the beginning, inspired by our research on the Submarine opening sequence
- We also ensured the sequence would be seamless and thought about how we could use continuity techniques, such as the 180 degree rule. This is shown in the Pride and Prejudice opening, with Lizzia and her book, and we wanted to replicate this with Lila and her phone.
- Signifiers of youth and young age, such as rucksacks and bikes, were added to the mise-en-scene of the opening sequence, in order to introduce our character as young, and potentially naive.
We also did some more work on our presentation, primarily adding the planning we had just done in the meeting to the research that was already on the presentation. This included a brief outline of our film idea, our intended core and wide target audiences and how we were inspired by our research.
