CCR Day 1

      My film uses genre conventions because of how the film starts. It starts with 2 women driving and their car breaks down, I feel as if this scene is typical horror film. As well as when they begin to realize they are lost in the woods. My decisions weren’t hard to make for this opening because before I even really started, I had a clear idea of what I wanted to do. The setting I chose was fairly easy to not only film but make it make sense in the sense of what is going on. It is the woods which goes hand in hand leading to when they find the house that they will soon try to enter. As of sound, the music that is played in the back is to create some type of suspense. This will have the viewers nervous or questioning what is about to happen next.

Social issues in my genre are represented typically through people getting lost with no communication to others. Sometimes even, they are trapped somewhere, it must be discrete and separated from everyone else. I used these issue in a helpful way to my film. These issues would be when the car breaks down, I chose this to help lead up to when they get lost in the woods. This was very helpful to my film and plays a big part in what comes after. Without this, they wouldn’t even have got lost in the forest nor been able to find the house at the end of the woods. This was very useful to my film and helped it severely.

Film considerations

 In what locations will your film be shot? Why? Include pictures and/or videos of real shooting locations. I was thinking for my film to be shot around my neighborhood. My plot is people who get lost in the woods and end up in a haunted palace, so I believe shooting it around the neighborhood first would be good, then for the palace part shoot it in my house. This has been my initial thought but I am now re-thinking about shooting it in my house because it is not much palace like. Possibly another option would be my grandmas house which is much bigger and has stairs.  Who will act in your film, if anyone? Why?  My sisters can help act in my film as well as my bestfriend most likely. If they are not available I will have to find other family members to participate because regardless, the idea was for it to be older individuals including the fact that they need to be able to drive. The age I would say is around 15+ I don't necessarily want anyone younger unless I add an extra charact

Finishing film script

 What is the shooting schedule for your film opening? I have not put it together just yet, but soon I will construct it. When I begin to put it together I need to speak with my actors to see when they are available. Once I speak with them I will be setting the location which is my house, the time will be sometime in the afternoon/ night on a weekend or 3-5 on a week day. I would prefer to begin shooting at a time when the sun is going down. So this does affect the time those can take off to help me shoot. So overall it will be sometime in the afternoon/night most likely on a weekend. Will you record any sounds during production? If so, how? Will you record sounds in-camera or using a separate audio recording system? I will record sounds during production, I want to have music in the background that creates some sort of  suspense. I will record the sounds most likely off of my phone which will be at the same time as the film is being recorded. I am not aware of any apps I can use to add
