Voiceover Recording Plan

For our teaser trailer, we have a scene in which the protagonist is standing in the middle of a busy street, and all around her is a time-lapse of people walking past. This was used to emphasise her state of mind, and to demonstrate her isolation.
However, in order to further emphasise her ostracising herself from society, we decided to include diegetic voiceover of voices insulting her, to represent how she believes society views her.

In order to create these voiceovers, we had a planned session.

Date: 30/01/2016

Attending: Ellie and Georgie

Voice Over Actor/s: Ellie and Georgie

Times: 13:00 - 14:00

Location: Ellie's recording studio

Equipment: A macbook, arode microphone, garage band, and classical voice (will be manipulated)

Costume: Not required

Permission: Not required

Balloon Scene Reshoot Filming Plan

In this blog post, I will be planning the reshoot of the balloon scene. Audience feedback revealed that many of our viewers could not read what was written on the red balloon, and so we decided to reshoot this scene with just one word written on the balloon, which will hopefully be easier to read.

Date: 30/01/2016

Attending: Georgie, Ellie

Actor/s: Ellie

Times: 13:00 - 14:00

Shot: The long distance shot of Ellie holding a balloon to signify her anger as she grows older.

Location: Field in Tenterden

Equipment: we will need a tripod, acquired from school, Ellie's camera, a red balloon, and a black marker pen to write the negative word on said balloon.

Costume: Baggy blue jumper, black jeans, black coat

Permission for Filming: Not required


Final Scene Reshoot Filming Plan

In this blog post, I will document the filming plan for our reshoot of the very final shot, a close up of Ellie's eyes. We had previously attempted to film this shot, but soon discovered that one of her eyes was out of frame, and so decided to reshoot it.

Date: 25/01/2016

Attending: Georgie, Ellie

Actors: Ellie

Times: 16:00 - 17:00

Shots: The eye-line extreme close up of Ellie's eyes.

Locations: Sutton - Valence

Equipment: For this scene, we simply need the tripod, to ensure the shot is stable, and the camera to take the shot. No other equipment is needed.

Costume: as we only see Ellie's eyes in this shot, no set costume is required.

Permission for Filming: not required

Flash Forward Filming Plan

In this blog post, I will be talking about the plan for our third piece of filming, looking at the logistics and how we plan on ensuring that we have all of the necessary equipment.

Date: 09/11/2015

Attending: Georgieanne and Ellie

Actors: Ellie and Frankie O' Donnell (Georgieanne's younger brother)

Times: 16:00 - 16:30

Shots: We plan on shooting the shot in which we see Frankie (posing as young Ellie) holding a balloon which has words such as 'innocence' and 'happiness' written on it. This shot will then cut to another shot of Ellie in the same position, holding a balloon with negative words written on it, such as 'worthless' and 'gross'.

Locations: Field in Sutton-Valence

Equipment: For this scene, we require two balloons - one white, and one red, both with writing on them. We also need a camera, and a tripod, which we have acquired from school.

Costume: A black coat and black trousers.

Permission for Filming: Not required.

Timelapse Filming Plan

This blog post contains the plan for our second day of filming, looking at the logistics and how we plan on ensuring that we have all of the necessary equipment.

Date: 22/10/2015

Attending: Georgie, Caitlyn, Ellie

Actors: Ellie

Times: 10:00 - 18:00

Shots: We plan on shooting the scene in which our protagonist (Ellie) is in a town centre and is feeling isolated, as well as our final scene in which it is insinuated that she is contemplating suicide.

Locations: Ashford Town Centre and Headcorn Railway Station Footbridge.

Equipment: For the scene where Ellie is walking through town and is feeling as though everyone is feeling as though everyone is talking about her, and for the scene where she is looking down at the railway tracks, we require the Go Pro and the attachments - specifically, the head strap. In order to obtain this, Caitlyn is to go into Maidstone on Wednesday 21st and retrieve the camera from another coursework group.
Also, for the shots of her in town, we need a tripod, which we have acquired from our school.

Costume: In these shots, Ellie is feeling self-conscious and uncomfortable with her body, and so must wear baggy clothes and no make-up to convey this to the audience.

Permission for filming: We are fine to film in Ashford as long as we blur the faces in the background. However, we need permission for filming at Headcorn Railway Station, and so plan on speaking to the ticket seller.
