(Post 7) Audience Research

 For my film there is not a set age that I want my film to pop out to but if I had to choose one it would probably be people of my age 17,18 as the main characters are of that age and I would think that maybe some people could relate back to my film. Yet again like before the gender is no different to the age I’m not aiming at a specific gender but I want all of them to enjoy my film. 

(Post 9) Final Location

 For my final setting I am going to use 2 different settings my first one is the bridge over the A11 like talked about earlier on. 

 

My other location is going to be a classroom in school that I am going to look like an interrogation room because I think that this could look really realistic and make it look like an actual interrogation room.

 Film 1 

Mise - en - Scene 

In this short film we see the main character in many different places some of the most notable are his house and the hospital. There are other settings in this short film like the shop, the office and the tree. The costume is very minimal in this short film with the normal cloths but with dog props and they work very effectively. The fact that he keeps a serious look about him is what makes it such a funny film.

Narrative 

This short film contains the preferred audience reading because the person who made this film wants the audience to enjoy the film and he wants them to find it funny. Also the audience sort of builds up a personal relationship with the main character.  

(Post 5) Production diary 1

Characters 

- The girlfriend who wants to kill herself  

- The boyfriend who tries to save her and dies 

- The news reporter 

- Background characters

Location 

- Classroom 

- Bridge over the A11

- News room (greenscreen)

Mise-en-scene 

Setting- For this I want to film in 3 different settings the first is going to be on the bridge in the photos above. The problem with this bridge is that it is over the A11 so it's gonna be very loud and it will be hard to block the sound of the cars going past under the bridge but I do want the cars in it so people can tell that it's above the A11. Also I want to film in a classroom for the flashback and also I want to use a room with a greenscreen to create the news room look and that scene.

(Post 4) Ideas for short film

Idea 1 

- It starts with the girl walking across the bridge to where she's gonna jump 

- We hear her thoughts and we hear what she's upset about

- Then she's says "I'm gonna jump" 

- The girl is about to jump from a bridge onto a motorway and kill herself

- Her boy friend who is biking past spots her and goes over to try and save her 

- He tries to talk her down

- Talks about their problems 

- Flashback to her watching her boy friend kiss another girl

- She changes her mood and then pushes him  

- After he talks her down she pushes him over the edge but we don't see that 

- (Fade to black) cuts to a news report and the news reporter talks about how a boy has died after falling from a bridge and they say that he was allegedly pushed from the bridge
