Practical task 1

Practical Task 1 Equilibrium - Boy is in school with other pupils; it's a busy corridor. Mise-En Scene - The people in the shot are wearing school uniform to show that they are young. He is in a suit to show he is in sixth form and can be on his phone. It is an establishing shot to set the scene and show the characters' normal. Disruption - The pupils vanish from the corridor suddenly. Boy doesn't notice because he is distracted by his phone. Mise-En Scene - He has a phone as a prop so that he misses the change.

I can’t let anyone know w...

Post 5: Production diary

Brainstorm ideas Having discussed with my teacher about my idea, I wasn’t completely sure on the location of my short film that I proposed, I was thinking a bus or a train but using these would mean I have to cancel out the noise of the train completely with the voice over. My main idea was to have a lead character sitting down on his seat on the train (next to a window preferably to show the passage of time and space) and then have an inner monologue of a troubling and maybe even dangerous situation he’s involved himself in to do with maybe a drug deal, as in the journey on the train or bus is the journey to what is going to happen. Im also quite stuck on how to end the short film, I was possibly thinking that I could end it with getting g a very low angle and show him getting of the train or bus and letting the audience decide whether or not he decided to do it, or is he chose safety and good conscience.
