I have been focusing this week on writing a script and doing a screenplay for my film. As I have just been writing a rough copy of my script I haven't yet uploaded it to my blog. I have been looking at the format of a screenplay and the elements that should be included in it. I have also been developing my characters - I have looked into costumes, props and mise-en-scene and I am also going to create a mood board to show different ideas for the setting and "feel" of my film.
Another thing I have been doing is looking at film clips for ideas for my own project. For example I have uploaded a clip to my blog from the TV series Skins, where one of the characters Effy is running through the woods. As I am setting my own film in a wood/forest I found the clip useful, especially in the use of colour, editing and cinematography.
I have also been finalising the ideas for my film. As well as using footage filmed on hand-held cameras which the characters have filmed themselves - the footage is for the science project they're doing - I will also be using the traditional way of filming and using them both. However, for it to work I will have to look at ways that this can be done for it to work properly, such as the ways it will be edited.
I have also been planning on when I am actually going to shoot my film. I hope to get all the planning done by the end of October - my script and screenplay and details including props and costume - so that I can shoot my film through November. I hope for it to take no more than 3 afternoons to film so that I can leave the rest of my time for editing.
