2nd Script W/Adjustments

Media Plot

Script Adjustment

This was our first script. We decided to make adjustments to this script as it included the whole synopsis instead of just the opening 2mins. We found that we didn't want too much dialogue within the sequence as it would deplete the suspense within the short 2mins. Also, it was way too detailed and we definitly would not have met the 2mins limit.

List Of Equipment

  • Camera 
  • Tripod/Monopod - At first I used a tripod, I found it difficult to maneuver as I held it quite often than I stood it up. Also, the tilt handle was not moving so it limited my camera movement. On the second day of filming I used a monopod, I found it easier as i could hold it in positions which the tripod couldn't. 
  • Lighting-We didn't want to create a dark atmosphere so we kept the kitchen lights on, also for the shot outside I used a standing light. 
  • Editing-We used iMovie HD to piece together our film and originally created our film title using Photoshop
