Shooting Schedule.




This is our shooting schedule for the next few weeks, to structure how we will create our film opening.

Progress Update One.

On Sunday, 24th November, we attempted to film scene one, however the field that we were going to film at was flooded due to the weather so we were unable to film. We are hopefully filming scenes two and three this weekend or during next week.

Costume.

Scene Three- Friends walking and fight. 





In this scene the costumes for every character in shot will be very similar to the costume selection in scene two. This includes high tops, hooded jumpers and tracksuits. 

Location.

Scene Three- Friends walking and fight.




In this scene the location will be a park. It is quite a rough area, so it fits well within the stereotypical setting of where working class people live. This is also where the fight will take place, introducing the other main characters. 

Costume.

Scene Two- Walking and knocking on door.




In this scene, the main character has changed from riding gear, to a tracksuit  She now comes across as a 'chav' or a working class teenager. This shows the audience that she leads a double life.

Location.

Scene Two- Walking and knocking on door.




In this scene, the main character will be walking up a road, then knocking on a front door of a house. This is where this scene will take play. We have chosen this location because we preferred to film a small street rather than a busy one with lots of traffic and people.
