Costume

These are the two seperate images we are going to use for our poster. However we were unable to get access to a tripod when we were taking these images so we tried our best to keep the camera in the same place however looking at the two images you can see the camera has been moved slightly. We will do our best to line the images up when editing them together in Adobe Photoshop.

Idea Changes To Our Film Poster

We had originally decided for our film poster that we were going to have our main protagonist standing on crossroads of a train this was to convey the story of our film and to show that is about making decisions. The reason we have decided to change this idea is because we are unable to find a suitable location to capture the photo. Our new poster idea still features our main protagonist but this time we have one half of him wearing a suit reflecting his business life and the other side of him he will be dressed in casual clothing reflecting the family orientated life.  This poster will still reflect the two different lives and the two decisions. We understand that this poster may be difficult to produce as we will be using 2 separate images; this means that when we take the photo we need to make sure we keep the camera and the actor in exactly the same place. We will edit the image in Adobe Photoshop.

Reseach Into Posters

The poster is plays a very important part when it comes to marketing and distributing a film as it will attract an audience. Therefore it is important that our poster is appealing and interesting but also reflect the storyline of our film. Our initial idea for our poster is to include our main protagonist and have him reflecting the two lives in our film. Our poster will also in the title, tagline, our production name and our actor’s name. We have looked at posters that directly relate to our film such as 'Sliding Doors' and 'Memento' but I'm going to look at a wider range of posters to get more inspiration for our film.

Whatever Works Poster

Eventhough our film is not of the genre we have decided we would like our main protagonist as the main feature on the poster. I like this poster as it is simple and straight to the point; his body language reflects the name of the film. When we look at him we can see him strugging his shoulders showing he does really care what happens hense the film being call 'Whatever Works'. The white background really makes the images stand out.

Definitely Maybe - Poster

This poster relates to our films because it also feature chioces and decission making. Also the main protagonist is the focus point of this poster; we are hopeing to use our main protagonist as the main image on our poster. From this poster we can tell there is romance feature in this film. Our film intersection also involves romance and decissions therefore when it comes to producing our poster we can use this poster as insperation to help convey the same messages.

Atonement - Poster

I like this poster, the layout is similar to sliding doors however instead of using the same protagonists to convey the two storylines 'Atonement' using two protagonists to show the two stories. I also like how the two people in the poster are looking in different dirrections. The tagline on this poster really bring the image together as an audience we understand more about the film then we do from first glance. We could incorperate this by using 2 images og Lucas one of him in his successful life and one of him in his family orientaed life and position them in a similar way one on top of the other.

Ananlysis Of Proposal Footage

We captured the footage for our proposal scene on Friday and the opening card scene for the family orientated life. Once we watched our footage back we realised that it was successful and therefore we have finished filming our family orientated life. We now have all our successful life footage to film and certain parts of the train station scene.

Costumes and Props For Filming



Lucas's Costume ( Family Orientated Life)

This is the T- Shirt warn by Lucas for the proposal scene we wanted this scene to be quite original and therefore we thought of a different way fr Lucas to propose to Grace. We made this T-Shirt and decided the proposal scene would be filmed by Lucas revealing this T-Shirt which has 'Will you marry me?' printed on the front.



 These are the two card we are using to show the two separate paths. The card are very similar except for the writing, in the successful life the card says from mum to show that he is lonely and hasn't got friends where as in the family life we show that Lucas and Grace are expecting a baby and the card is from friends.

Complications with filming

Throughout filming we have been faced with a number of complications. Our most recent complication is that whilst we were filming at the train station we were asked to leave by the duty manager because he believed we were press and not media students; due to this we have been set back again in our filming schedule.Therefore we have sent a letter asking permission to film at the train station. We hope to hear from them soon so we are able to continue our filming at the train station and complete this section.

Analysis Of Indoor Scene Footage

We managed to capture the footage we needed for our indoor scenes yesterday we captured around 30 minutes of footage however we are only intend to use about 2 minutes of it. We captured much more footage then we actually need because we shot the same scenes a number of times but from a variety of angles so that when it comes to editing the footage together we have a wide range of footge to choose from. Also just before we captured the footage for these scenes we scripted some dialogue so that the conversation flowed however after reviewing the footage back its not as clear and loud as we hoped and therefore we have decided whether we will keep the diegetic sound. If we choose to get rid of the diegetic sound our other option is to have a montage of shots with relevant non-diegetic music dubbed over; this may be more effective.We will make the final decision when we edit the footage together.
