Prelim Animatic



In this prelim video, we had to follow several tasks step by step. We had to have a match cut of someone opening a door and entering the room and a shot reverse shot of two people talking with out braking the 180 rule (which we did but we learnt from are mistakes as a group).
We took pictures of myself (Myles) and Susan acting out several scenes, whilst Micheal took pictures of it while it was happening. This video is a thriller and thriller action for sub genre. In total we took 22 pictures then edited it out on Final Cut Pro. We found it hard to take pictures of some scenes such as when Susan is jumping over a table, but  in end the end we got a good shot. It took us 45 minutes to take all our shots and  10 minutes to edited up on Final Cut Pro, Micheal did most of the editing while Me and Susan went out to come up with fresh new ideas for our video prelim. Overall we enjoyed this experience and have learned a lot,  we explored intertextuality in are piece, also this has given us so many ideas for are actual thriller opening.
We had intertextuality from the film Batman (Myles added in) and from the film National Treasure (that I {Susan} came up with) which was heard from the dialogue.
We came up with a script as a group for Me and Myles to act out while Michael filmed but we also decided that if we couldn't remember are lines we would improvise and Michael will then cut at the end of the sentence that was made up because neither was Me or Myles actors or do drama.

The script we had written out was:
Susan - Remember Me?
Myles - Why? Am I meant to? Why so serious?
S - You have something that belongs to me. Where is the vile?
M - The falcon lies beneath the birds nest. (intertextuality - National Treasure)
S - Washington!
M - WHY ME? (intertextuality - Batman)
