Thriller Title Sequence 2010 Group 12

By doing the preliminary task, it made me more aware of what to do in the real thing. For the task, we done diferent shots: over-the-shoulder, shot revirse shot, meduim shots - we experimented with it. Alos, by doing this, it gave me an idea of how we are actaully supose to do for the real thing. But, I really enjoyed the task we wer set. :)
As it being a task in college, I didn't really see the importance of mise-en-scene, because that is one of the most important things in a clip/film. We just pushes a few things aside, so it'll look alright, but didn't take much notice to it.
I did the task (as a camerawoman) using a tripod, which made it smooth and not shakey. It looked good. However, I didn't see a tripod in my film, because i wanted it to give it some effect and an edginess to it - by being (sometimes) 'unstable', it links in with my story with the pysco lover. i haven'y actually thought of it that way, untill I watched what I did.. :)
For the task, I didn't use any sounds - I only used the natural sound of them talking. It was pretty simple, but I didn't realise how much of importance it is - for it changes the whole thing. But, once I did my film i used sound. It really did change the way the film was like. i think it created a more creepy feeling to it and it was as if you were almost exspecting something to happen...
For my film, I used a lot of mise-en-scene as i know it plays a big part in the film. Some of the mise-en-scene were naturally there, and I think it created really gud effect. I especially liked how the roses were on the bed and was thoughtfully scattered all over the bed.
If I were to do the task again, I would have thought of little details, such as: books on the tables, a drink etc - something small, but would mean so much in that role. And i would ahve added simple but effective music to it as well, to give it a sincer feel to it... :)
DOing that preliminary tak definately helped me to the real thing. i put a lot of considaretion into what was there, what place it had to be in, sound and how different angles of shots can be a huge effect of the film... :) Plus, knowing what I had to be careful about, i took care, and I think that because of it, my film: 'Broken Chain' became really creepy in a sick love kind of way. :)
