Matthew Wright

Due to unforseen circumstances, one of our influential members of our group will unfortunately not be able to carry on with this course. This was a result from a complication that arose from a simple medical operation, that has unfortunately left Matthew Wright with paralysis of his left leg. He will be sorely missed, and we wish him all the best.

Get well soon Matt!

Rough cut Questionaire for feedback

The questions above will be asked to a wide variety of people and we will be filming the response. The questions are of a wide range as we wanted to get as much feedback and suggestions as possible to make our film as appealing to the audience as possible.

'30 Days Earlier' - Rough cut

This is the rough cut of our title sequence. Unfortunately, we had problems with processing the intended monologue and our first draft of music. We have taken in all the feedback and our currently working on improving the sequence.

Posting schedule

We devised a posting schedule for all of us in the group, to even all the posts. Obviously, this isn't a full planfor all the posts and another schedule should be posted soon when we gathered more ideas. All together we have accumulated the 30 posts evenly to each other, with all the post having interesting information on our planning and production.

Preliminary task

This is our preliminary task. We chose a thriller genre for this task as we wanted to gain experience to what we can acheive on our main task. By having a thriller genre, we twisted the brief slightly by showing a character walk into a room whilst also having shots showing the room with a kidnapped character inside. This worked effectively as the unique idea we had created original connotations.
