REASERCH: Ciara's Production Logos

From this research I have found that the majority of production companies use rich and royal colours such as blue and gold. I can take this research into consideration when we design out groups production logo.

GROUP TECHNICAL: 3 Point Lighting

Here is out 3 point lighting experiment where we tried out different types of lighting and filters. It allowed us to see the effects that the lighting gave the persona and gave us and insight into what we may use in our thriller opening.

PLANNING: Initial Decision Group Pitch and Audience Feedback

Group Pitch (to class)

Audience Feedback (Q&A)

Q) how are you going to find the location of the grungy looking bathroom?
A) We responded to this by saying we would look around for our best options however now on reflection we will use one of our own bathrooms and use dark lighting and props to make it appear this way.

Q) how quick will the transitions be from the woman looking normal to distraught? 
A) we responded to this question as it being a flicker to allow a contrast from her interior and exterior image. However it it also possible for us to separate it more and not make it an immediate transition by adding in other images and footage.

Q) will the credits being in red and the blood show connotations to a horror film rather than a thriller?  
A) Originally we thought that this was a good idea to create suspense however through our audience feedback we may change the colour of our credits to white or black depending on the background colour and use a minimal amount of blood to represent a murder.

Q)How will the credits transition on and of the screen?
A) Our credits will fade on and off the screen to represent the loss of a person to the protagonist, however they will appear more rapidly and flicker as the opening goes on to build up the suspense and represent the genre of a physiological thriller.

Q)Who will do the makeup for the actor on screen?
A)We can easily do the makeup ourselves at professional looking standard.

Q)What type of music will be used?
A) we will use an easy music that builds up to the title of the film to create suspense, the music will then begin to fade after the title once it has made and impact so the film can begin.

Q What are the connotations of the title "Unmasked"?
A) As well as the title creating mystery, it also represent the protagonist and how she appears fine on the outside to others,however on the inside she is falling apart due to the murder of her partner and although we get a glimpse of this at the beginning in our opinion, more is revealed later on in the film.  

Q) What is your target audience?
A) Our target audience is starts at 15 year olds as thats our age rating as through research we found that this was the typical age rating for thrillers and for a thriller to be successful however as the main cast are adults our target audience are also adults.
