Production blog: Website

Hey bloggers! We're back with another blog and today is another exciting news. Today we will be talking about our new website for our own movie. As I've mentioned before we were tasked with a website and a post card with our short film. As we have just completed our post card, we had to plan on how to work on the website. The website task is a little longer than the post card, so we have to start it early. We planned to go again to Starbucks but we didn't want to do that again. What we did was we stayed at Connies house and worked on it. At first we were struggling to find a good website template but after a lot of time looking we finally found something nice. We found something that matches our theme of the movie. So after we found it we began to fill up all the information we needed for the website as we had to include a summary, facts, date of release, actors, photos, etc. It took us quite some time to work on it as we would get distracted easily. But even with distractions we worked through it and got it done. It turned out really nice. It was better than what I expected because I thought it would be so much work. At the end it wasn't and we got that out of the way. Only task we have left is the short film which is a huge relief. With the short film we are super close in finishing which I can't wait to show you guys. Anyways I'll talk more about the short film in another blog. Thank you guys for sticking around like always and don't leave just yet because we are getting closer and closer each time. Have a great day bloggers, see ya next time!

Title Research: Manhut

Image
 In the film Manhunt they have various titles displayed throughout the opening sequence. These titles include the studio, production company, director and inspiration for the film. The titles also include where the film is taking place. The last title to be shown is the title of the movie itself and then the background changes to a very bright red emphasizing the film title apart from the rest. The images emphasized during the opening sequence are that of terrorists which sets the concept of the movie up and gives the audience an understanding of what they're about to watch. They also show documents that appear to be federal or secretive in the background with more mugshots of terrorist with lines connecting all of the mugshots and documents. The film establishes the thriller genre with the use of a serious and off-putting font. The faded effect on the font also adds on to the immersion of the audience and the use of ominous and exhilarating music. The animation of th...

Movie Research: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2022)

For the past week the group has been researching various thriller movies, the movie we're researching at the moment is the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (TCM) is a long term favorite amongst scare enthusiasts and has touched the hearts of millions of fans. However, the most recent installment of the series is poorly rated by many due to its poor storyline. The TCM is a scary film and has some notable scenes that draw out fear in the audience but lack of interesting storyline makes it bland and unentertaining. The TCM uses tracking shots, close-ups and inserts. The TCM also uses very detailed props and costumes to immerse audiences such as chainsaws and leather masks. The TCM fantastically uses jump scares and music to intensify the film and it truly terrifies the audience. The use of loud sounds leaves the audience cowering in fear and leaves them on the edge of their seats. The TCM also uses terrifying costumes to unsettle the audience and immerse them on th...

Our Pitch

Image
These are our pitches we came up with for our opening sequence Pitch A: A group of students plan out an innocent camping trip and begin to find out that there is something out there, something watching them the entire time. Pitch B: A family hires a personal chef, the chef sneakily steals items from their house covering his tracks no matter the cost. Pitch A seemed a little cliche to us at first but it was a very feasible idea that could still be loads of fun and really well produced. We found that it would be simpler to use effective music in a thriller as there are loads more films and media work using suspenseful music. We also had a slight plan as to where we would film the sequence, Oleta State Park. We also had the camping equipment necessary for the props and costumes allowing our budgets to be put towards other things. I also enjoy being out in the woods and it would bring the mood up around the production team. Pitch B on the other hand I found to be pretty unique and somethin...
