Location Reeces

Usama's house

We plan on using Usama's house for Tony and Alex's house since it contains a very big living room where we can see the big group of friends hanging out together, and it is not a room with not that much space, so it won't look weird when we film in there.We think that the bathroom would be a perfect place to do the death scene for Tony since the bathroom is right next to the sink, so it is somewhere where Tony would immediately fall into after having his face smashed in the mirror. We also got permission to use his house since his mother said we can use it in the holidays



 Hainault Forest

We plan on using Hainault forest for Faris's death scene since it is a massive forest that we think would be perfect to film in, since there would not be that many people around which means nobody would interrupt the filming and we think that by not having anyone around it would add to the creepy vibe that we intend to have in the scene. There are many large trees that we can use for smashing the sleeping bag against and we found that we do not need permission from anyone to film in this area.

 Daniel's house/Caxton Road

We plan on filming all of the scenes of Freddy at home in Daniel's house since he said that he is comfortable using his room for the lying in bed scenes and the last scene where Freddy finds out that he was the killer all along. We would like to use this room since Daniel has a very big bed so we think it would be a perfect bed to film the scenes of him shaking around in bed while having nightmares. We also got permission from Daniel's parents to use their house for the filming.

 Alleyway near Queens hospital 

We plan on using this alleyway for Colt's death scene since we think that it is the perfect area to film it in, same as the forest it is a very quiet area where there would be no one that would interrupt the filming, and the quietness and the fact of having not much around, it adds on to the creepy vibe that we want the film to have, and the fact that he dies near a hospital would make the audience feel sympathy since he would not be able to go to it after being attacked.

Reflection on Final Content

Are there any areas of the presentation you would like to give any more detail on?

One thing that we mentioned in the presentation would be that I think we could of explained better would be the inspiration slide where I think when explaining the inspiration for the killer our group did not mention that the killer did not look anything like the main character even though its the evil version of himself, Another thing that I think that our group could have talked about more would be about the meet my audience part of the presentation, where we did not mentioned everything that was on the slide and only mentioned what the age of the person is and what shops/TV shows they like, we forgot to mention what their hobbies are and what they do in their free time.

What did your audience identify as the strengths of your short film idea?

The audience liked the idea of there being constant nightmares and the killer having an evil version of himself. The idea of the man having constant nightmares every day and having those nightmares link seemed very interesting to the audience, When explaining that each person dies a different way, the audience agreed and found it interesting and thought it would make the audience want to see how each of them die.

What did your audience identify as areas for improvement

The audience thought that the whole idea was too much to fit in a 10 minute short film and thought that it was not a good idea to have each of the friends that get killed be different personalities of the main character, and thought that they should be actual people so that it would make more sense. The audience did not like the idea that the dreams would be in black and white since we were told that nobody had dreams in black and white so it would not make sense.

What changes will you make to your short film concept based on the feedback you received 

Now that seeing that people did not like the idea of having all the characters being different personalities of the main characters instead of real people, we decided to make all of the characters that get killed be different people that were friends, since that makes a lot more sense. We were told that it would not make sense that the dreams would be in black and white so we ended up scrapping the idea of having the dreams in black and white and have a blurring effect at the beginning, so we can make it obvious that it is going into a dream.

• Work with the director and make sure to get all of the shots that the director wants
• Make sure to always place the camera in the right areas
• Communicate with the actors to help get the right shots

Arman would be suited for this roll because he is the only person in the group that will not be included in the film, and when filming he is always focused so he placed everything in the right areas and checks the equipment all the time. Arman is someone that is great when talking to others so he knows how to communicate effectively with the actors, and knows how to listen, so he will work well with the actors and the director to make sure that all of the shots meat the standards.

• Work on the computer editing for a long period of time

Daniel would be suited for this roll because he is someone who is used to editing projects on the computer by himself, and he has been working on long projects in the past so he is patient when it comes to editing. Daniel has done a lot of projects where he has mixed footage, images and music together, so he knows how to mix media together effectively to make a good final product. He is used to working under pressure with deadlines in the past, especially when it comes to editing, so he knows how to handle the editing when deadlines are closing up.

• Have a lot of creative input in to the final product 
• Have a lot of say when it comes to filming all of the shots

Usama would be suited for this role because he is the person in the group that came up with the idea for the film and already knows what all of the shots are meant to look like, what each character says in the script, and who all of the actors will be in the cast. He is good when it comes to work with others when filming so he is comfortable with having a lot to say when it comes to the production stage of making the short film.

Daniel will be suited for this roll because he is the one person in the group that is able to contact every person in the cast and crew with his phone, unlike the other two in the group, and he knows how to communicate well with them, so that would be useful when shooting the scenes. He has already worked on the budget and knows how much everything will cost, and has already bought all of the equipment needed. He is used to scheduling when to film each shot with his previous projects, so he would be perfect for doing the same for this project
