Costumes, Props and Location
All the previous shots are of the location we have chosen to use this location because it will show that the man still try's to live a normal life. Because he still lives in the same home that he lived with his mum therefore this will add to the the fact that he is still grieving over his loss. Also the windows that are in place match the curtains we all had in our minds for some of the scenes meaning we can follow the storyboards to a closer detail.
These are the props that we will be using in our sequence we have chosen to use these props as we feel like the location these are all things that you will use in everyday life. But we will use this in contrast to how they are used in everyday life. This will add meaning to the piece because it will show what the character has been through and how he doesn't follow a normal life.
These are the clothes that will feature in our opening sequence. We have chosen the jogging bottom and the jumper. We have chosen this outfit because

This again will be someone that is walking past the antagonists home. We choose to have this man anonymous because I feel that it will add a more realistic feel to it because you do not know the names of all the people that walk past your house. He will only be in the sequence for a very short period of time. He is just in the opening to add realism to the piece.
Character Description:
Name: Stevie Jones
Age: 20
Height: 6ft 1
Ethnicity: White
Body Type: Lean
Body Type: Lean
This is the antagonist. He will be in mostly every shot in the opening sequence. When he was younger he had a very bad tragedy happen to him this has affected him very badly over time and he has not coped with it at all well. He has developed a severe illness.He cannot function in the way he could before an he has difficulty doing the basic things.
The character cannot have people walk passed his house without having to take notes against different people to see what they are doing. He has a book and note board that he puts peoples pictures in and also writes down various things about what they are wearing and the time that they passed.

This is one of the two hooligans that will be standing outside the protagonists house, they will also be at the door when the antagonist has to go and open the door. These two characters will only be in the opening sequence for a short period of time. We decided to have these three hooded characters anonymous because this will add to the mysterious element of the three characters. We have also chosen to have three of them to add to the stereotypical way of teenagers loitering around in gangs and being an unwelcome site to many people.

Shooting schedule

Animatic
This is my animatic for our opening sequence. We use the animatic to show the way we are going to think about laying out our opening sequence. We used this to really give us an idea of what we will use when setting out the film. I think using the animatic really helped us think about the various shot types we could use. And because of this i think we produced a good amount of shots and we could really think about the opening sequence and how we were going to set everything out.
Titles:
For our titles we choose to use the name insanity productions because it really makes the audience think about what the film is about and gives them a clue to what the movie is about. Also the protagonist could be seen as insane therefore making a suitable name for a production company.
We then decided to think about what way we should put our title in and we decided to put them in order of importance with the most important roles coming first and the lesser important roles coming second.
Feedback:
In regards to the feedback we received most of it was based on the titles. The three pieces of feedback we got was think about the placing of our titles, the people in the titles and the music choices.
In regards to the feedback to do with the placing of our shots we will have a real think about the placing of the titles we we are filming and put them in when we have the fully finished product so we can see and not just visualize.
For the people in the titles we will have to change some peoples names as they appear too often this will mean making up a name. This will mean that we have to think about what we will be seeing on the screen.
For the music choice we had a division with some people saying that they thought the music choices were good and some saying they wasn't very good therefore we will need to do as servery or something to see whether we will need to change the music or not and if then results come back and say that we should change the music we will need to find a new piece or pieces of music.

Script
This is the script we will be using in our opening sequences. The use of the short script shows that the man does not speak very often and when he does he just makes sounds to himself. This shows that he his man of few words and can be very strange.

Storyboard
This is the storyboard for my groups thriller sequence, we used these shots because it shows the characters personality and him breaking down this will be a very sequence of shots to show his personality because the break down will show what he is going through in his mind. We used storyboards because it gives us a a really good idea of the opening sequence and how we want it to pan out.
In these shots we see the antagonist setting out his book and putting up fresh pictures in the wall of people. Again this will show that the characters way of living his life showing that he is does not live his life in a conventional way. Again i think we could really think about this scene as because we story boarded it so we thought about it and could really think about the scene and the character.
In these shots we see the mise en scene the main focus the mise en scene. We see the mise en scene of the walls with the pictures and the pictures of the woman and the antagonist and the woman's eyes scratched out to show he is very angry and again the mise en scene shows that he doesn't live an ordinary life. By storyboarding it was easy to see the sequence pan out in front of us.
