Opening sequence, session 3

In this session our group had to book the equipment that we were going to be using for filming. We booked a stills camera, a filming camera and a tripod. We each had to think of props we needed for our character whilst filming, I needed some poker chips and a coin.  At the end of each lesson we fill out a production report too show the work we have done after each lesson.

Opening sequence, session 2

In the second session we had to do a opening titles comparison research sheet. This was where we chose an opening sequence from a film and an opening sequence from a tv series. I chose the new film 'The dark knight rises' and 'White chapel'. We had to write down the brief descriptions of each opening sequence such as who directed it and the release date. We then had to write out different things like the narrative structure strengths and weaknesses of each sequence.

Opening sequence, session 1

On the first day of planning our sequence we thought of our character names and what we as the characters were going to be wearing, we had to make a character design sheet in photoshop. I did this by getting a picture of myself and cropping out the body so I was left with the head, I then got clothes off google that I knew I would be wearing and added it to the body. After the clothes were added we had to write about what we were going to be wearing. We then had to add the name of our character and upload it to flickr.
After the character design sheet was competed we wrote out a opening titles overview sheet which was where we put the characters sections in order so we could clearly see what we were going to do.
