Tuesday 22nd June 2010 - Creating Our Version Of A Film Clip

Today, we worked in a group to produce a frame by frame re-make of a scene from a film. Each group was frawn randomly from a bag and the choice of sequence was also in a random order so that it would be fair. Me, Charna, Emma, Rob and Christina was in the group. We watched the clip in our groups. As part of the clip involved a locker, Me and Charna then went to the college reception asking to borrow a locker so that we could film our scene. The locker that we was given was down a small corridor and the locker was very small with a very big spider in it, so then we decided not to use the locker. We then gave the key back and went to the sports hall and they let us use a locker, so we had to go back there at 12 O'clock, While me and Charna did this, Rob, Emma and Christina was making the props which was the food and drink. All this was made out of Plasticine, Pins and Card. You can view a photo of this below. The clip involved three characters, 2 men and 1 woman, but our characters were 1 man and 2 woman.

The sequence includes three characters, some with dialogue and some with difficult camera angels and editing. We did not film in any forbidden spaces, due to health and safety regulations.


We started filming in the Canteen as most of the film clip was set in the canteen. Then after our filming in the canteen we went to the sports hall corridor so that we could film the locker scene. We spent the morning doing this, then in the afternoon we edited the footage.
