Sound effects

The sound effects weve chosen to use emphasise the scene. We chose gunshot sounds so we can make them louder and more tense. We may also use a wind sound effect to play in the background throught the scene. We could use footsteps and bird noises to show how the scene is taking place outside and so it seems more innocent before the bad character changes the scene.

Location

We decided to shoot our scene in Shepreth as is would be more convinient as more of the group live nearby also the location is remote, so the props we use will not attract attention.
The red lines show where about we are filming.

Shot types

Establishing shot.

The establishing shot establishes the scene or the people in the scene. The shot is usually used at the beginning of a scene.

Long Shot.



A long shot shows the whole of a humans body, with the head at the top of the shot and the feet at the bottom.

Medium Shot.



A medium shot shows from the waist up.

Close up.



A close up shows just the face of a person, usually used to show emotion in a scene or detail in an object.

Props

The props we will need for the film extract is a gun, when Miriam tries to shoot Brad and Danielle, when chasing after them.

Our influences

As the extract of our film is based on a woman attempting to kill a couple, we decided that Mr and Mrs smith would be a suitable film to take influence from.

Scenes such as this,

Here the couple both know they have to kill each other, we decided we could form our scene similarly whereby the characters know they could be killed but don't show there emotions.



Scenes like this however show the couple fighting, clearly showing there emotions, it features many close ups and mid-range shots.



We decided to take influence in the style of filming from The Proposal. The way both actors are kept on screen during conversations instead of switching, for example showing over the shoulder shots of each character.

Our Idea

Idea

Characters
Man - Brad
Woman - Danielle
Mentally unstable woman - Miriam

For our extract of our film, we had an idea about two women who had fallen in love with the same man. One is mentally unstable and jealousy over runs her when the man chooses the other woman over her. The film will be about her attempts to kill the other woman. Our scene will be one of the many failed attempts to kill the other woman.
Our scene will start by the man and the woman together as a couple, taking a walk in a deserted country lane but they don't know that the mentally unstable woman is following behind them holding a gun. She tries to shoot them without them realising and repeatedly misses. She runs after them but they hide in a ditch, making her give up until the next time.
