Starting Over

Last week we decided that our film opening wasn't going too well and we decided to go back to brainstorming ideas and start all over again. We've been watching some more film openings and will use a lot of shots and we are still thinking of another storyline.

Ghost Research

here is some research about ghosts which ties in quite well with our film, the articles talks about the reaction of people to ghost films. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-15624596

today we went to film our film opening again, i think we used a range of different shots and techniques and can't wait to watch it all back and start editing. I also think it was much more organised than the first time round as we already knew what we were doing and we made sure we were recording on the correct setting.

Filiming Kerfuffle

On tuesday we tried to upload our footage to our mac but we filmed our whole opening on the wrong setting which was not compatible with the macs so we had to go out and refilm everything today. This time we were more organised and knew what we were doing and we just need to start editing it all.

Filiming day 1- spoof

Yesterday we went off to film our film opening, it was rather tiring and we tried to fit in as many different camera angles and different shots as we could.

Devil- Spoof

We saw this short clip on youtube about the devil and found the spoof extremely funny and it has inspired us to do something similar as it coincides with our theme.

Today in Media

During Miss Fitzjohn's lesson we started storyboarding our film opening and so far we have completed one sheet and we also need to go over it in black pen and in Miss Fosters lesson we were looking at spoofs which gave us a few ideas for our movie and Miss Foster also recorded us vlogging as a group.

Vlog- Third Vlog

We've come to the decision of a horror spoof after changing our idea a numerous amount of times and we're thinking of spoofing Paranormal Activity mixed with The Exorcist and we are also going to be pretending to be playing the ouji board but we are going to spell the name wrong and use monopoly houses, Here is a vlog Miss Foster recorded of us going over our storyboard and what else we are planning on doing.

Epic Movie

Epic Movie is a spoof movie which spoofs scenes from globally known films such as The Chronicles of Narnia, Harry Potter, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Pirates of the Caribbean and many others. There are several scenes from all these movies which have been recreated with added comedy which makes it really funny to watch.

Blair Witch Spoof

Here is the trailer for The Blair Witch Project and the link below shows how it has been spoofed by Scary Movie



The link below is an example of The Blair Witch Project being spoofed starting from 1:20

Film Opening Idea- Spoof

We have rethought our idea and thought that working with an animal would be rather tricky and we thought it would be too muddy and dirty to film in a field in during the winter. We have decided on something completely different and something that is a new genre and has not been done before. We are thinking of doing a horror spoof and  thought about spoofing Paranormal Activity, The Exorcist and perhaps Narnia in our film opening which we think will be quite funny and we think we can pull it off.
