we lied...:)

okay so before when we showed our final desings, we were lying. we managed to get some feedback on them and so things have been altered again, but we are much much happy with our changes. these should hopefully now be the final ones!

Filming... can it possibly be finished!?

Yesterday Laura and I were trying our hardest to find a boy to star in our film and after being let down three times we thought this would be hard, we found this was the case as Laura asked two of them and they both said they had other plans. After some thought, and trying to get hold of every boy i knew, someone said yes! :)

I spoke to him and arranged with him to meet me and Laura to do some filming in the morning, when he arrived we got all the shots we needed and a few extra because he was very cooperative which was such a relief as our short film needs to be finished by Friday and we are now on a very tight schedule to get it finished, our boy has also agreed that if we need him tomorrow he should be able to come in. :)

After finishing our filming we had planned to get a camera and import our filming onto the mac, this is where we struck another problem! there was another group using the mac we needed and the camera too, we then decided to get on with our preliminary task (the poster).

Whilst we were filming in the graveyard we also got some photos of the background we wanted for our poster and a photo of the boy to use for the silhouette, we needed more photos because the ones we had didn't achieve the golden spiral rule and we needed the silhouette to be the main focus of our poster, so when we found we couldn't start editing we decided to make our poster and finished it before the end of the day, this means we are now one down.. two to go! then our media is finished :/

Tomorrow... because we couldn't get any editing done today we have decided that we are going to edit our film and finish our magazine film review for the best part of tomorrow and if it comes to it we will have to stay after school to finish it as it needs to be done by friday.

designing poster and review

we have begun putting together our photos and experimenting on photoshop. please can you let us know what you think to the designs. one thing we must say is that we are going to try using a different photo of Amy on the reveiw so that we have a different photo from the poster.

photos for our poster and review

today me and Amy went out and took lots of photos that could be used in our poster and magazine film review

poster designs

here is a slide of a few designs we drew up for ideas of a film poster. trying to follow some similarites as the 'Warp' films posters i researched and following the golden spiral rule for the composition.

The Golden Spiral

Many here know about the " Rule of thirds " maybe the most well know principle of photographic composition.
Its principal use is to create aesthetically pleasing compositions, but you can add some energy and movement by applying the golden ratio.

the mathematical ratio is present in nature from flowers to animal, the golden ratio is a good start point to create great compositions, we can use the golden spiral to make such work.
when designing our own poster ideas we shall try to stick to this ratio, to ensure our poster is as aesthetically pleasing :)
