Location Recce

Myself and Ollie went up to Gareths house to check out the location and figure out what we will need for the shoot. We decided that we should do a test shoot next week so we can get camera and lighting spot on. Behing the spot in the 1st few photos there is anoth sofa and a little more room for participants.

The following photos are of the bathroom and the two possible rooms to conduct the tests/individual interviews within. We will figure out what room will be best to use during the test shoot that I will be organising next week.

Hi Guys, Sam from the Freegan project is now onboard with the project so we now have our three participants. I will be organising a meeting sometime next week to see where abouts everyone is up to and what still needs doing before the shoot.

Another Note

Hallam Doctors got back to me, they are unable to help us so we will have to make sure that the participants have been to the doctors and got a note to say they are fit and ready to take on this task.

Sam

Hi Guys, Spoke with the Sheffield Hallam doctors office, There not sure if they can check the participants as they will not be registered with the doctors surgery, I am getting a call back from a Doctor at some point will keep you all posted, we will have to look at other ways of getting them checked over prior to shoot if this is the case.

Tension Technique in the SoundTrack

Sound to picture My very own ‘Tension Technique’.

(re-mastered from Research workbook)

I propose we use this technique in the hope to make the viewing experience –

MORE OF AN EXPERIENCE!

1. Introduce film with Tired orientated Music,

2. Do not give audience any evidence of sleep deprivation until roughly three quarters of the way through.

Resulting –

· Audience anticipating an explanation for the tired orientated music (they think about tiredness because of the music, but they’re given no further explanation - making them unsettled wanting to know why), making them WANT to watch the rest of the film instead of watching it any other reasons, such as; they’re family,

· it will raise tension,

· and leave them confused

· Benefitting with the film having more appeal, and focus from the Audience.

SoundTrack !

Yo,

I'm going to get on the job of making/composing our music.

I want to use something that will remind audience of feeling tired, like dub-step immediately does that job - the large, heavy, metallic, sounds that echo as well in dub step, if you know what I mean,

Also this instrumental would defo work ! But of course I will make something from scratch, if anything,

Hi guys, Heres a brief schedule layout for the production, Some dates still to be confirmed, will repost i as it updates,
