To start my film i am going to be using Universial Pictures as this company has done lots of film like the film i am making.



This is my presintation for my disition on what gunre i am picking.

My Story...

My story is about a Man who goes undercover into the Police force for the local Race Gangs and is found out and has to escape, He can only find a Quad Bike so he flees and the man hired to kill him is on a Dirt Bike and there is a dramatic chase when the Gangster comes off the quad bike and is on the ground hurt. The hired assassin is standing over the Gangster with his gun against his head and then there is a click and the assassin turns around and there is a little boy standing there with the Gangsters gun in his hand pointed to his head (the boy being the gangsters son), the assassin pushes the boy away but the boy was a lot stronger then he thought so the assassin shots the gangster ion the hart and then the boy and the assassin both shoot each other in the stomach, then there is the sound of a car and the assassin runs towards it and jumps in front of it casing his death.

Then:12 YEARS LATER.

Tye Breaker was walking down the street and a load of sports cars speed by and then he jumped into his car which was right next to him, Tye Breaker was 24 years old, 12 stone and about 5 feet 11 inches, Tye’s dad died 12 years ago and eve since he has infiltrated the police force and is in the biggest car racing gang around New York. Tye’s mission in life is to bring down the New York police force and seek revenge for his father’s death. At the moment the gang The Rifles have 4 people in the New York police force undercover collecting information for the biggest raid ever accounted for.

The Rifles are the biggest gang in New York, the Police force has killed and arrested dozens of members and now the rifles are looking for revenge and in the lead is Tye Breaker...

Story Board

This is my story board with a working video.

My Current Mark

I think i am at a high level 2 low level 3 at the momment.

1. When it comes down to "the reaserch into similar products and a potntial terget audience" In this part i think i am a low level 3 because i have shown a good understanding i what films are the same gunre and the same type of audence to try and find a film as much like mine as i could.

2. When it comes down to "the orginisation of actors, locations, costumes or props" i am about a low level 2 because i haven't yet placed any pictures on my blog about any of the lited ubove but i cannot because of wether and other implacations.

3. When it comes down to "Work n shotlists, layouts, drafting, scripting or storyboarding" i am hoping for a low level 3 but i don't know because we have not started this part of our corsework yet.

4. When it comes down to "Is there a good level of care in the presentation of the research and planing" i think i am a middiam level 3 because i have a good layout to my blog and all my research and planning which has helped raise my level.

5. When it comes down to "Time management" i thik i am a low level 3/high level 2 because i have keept upto date with all my work so i think i have done well with my time management.

Production Company

The Fast and the Furious:

The fast and the furious series were made by Universal Pictures, This company would be perfect for my film because the fast and the furious because this film is almost equally the same type of film and the one I’m am going to make.


Speed Racer:

Speed Racer has the same type of film as my one and it was produced be Warner Bros. Pictures, this company would be useful because it has the same type of story line but this company is a very typical company to stay to the younger audience instead of the type of audience that I would need.


Stormbreaker:

Stormbreaker would be a good film to mimic because it has the same type of story line as my film and it was produced by Samuelson Productions, would not be as sutibale to making my film because this company is better at making love story’s instead of Action/Thriller/Adventure like my film is.


Crank:

Crank would be a beautiful role model to my film which is made by Lakeshore Entertainment, This would give so much inspiration to my film because it has the fast race scene, action and it also has a love story witch I might add in later in the film to add some effect and will add an extra audience category because they wouldn’t watch it if it didn’t have the love scene.


Death Race:

This would be a perfect example to compare to my film because it has the hart racing danger and the hart warming love to calm you down just to get your hart racing the next scene and this film is one to keep you on the edge of your seat, this film was made by Universal Pictures, this company also made The fast and the furious which is also a big film which I have taken into consideration for using in my film.



In the end i will be using Universal Pictures!!!

List

1. Making my Polimanery Task.
2. Making peacice's of reaserch.
3. Make a disition on my production company.
4. Make a story bord.


More will be added to the list as time gose on.

Film Openings

In this lesson we were watching film openings, the film we were watching was Good Fellether's,

This is an Action film,

The purpose of this opening sequence is it includes a car sound along with the opening credits to help set the scene This helps us tell it is a gangster film,
In the bagining there is a killing and blood and a small section of dialog tells us we are in New York in 1970.

The purpose achieved throught the media language is that there is alot of swearing, Raily Otter is the main charicter unlike Robot Denero who is a secondery charicter in the background, There is alot of Red and Black lighting to show that this is a gangster film and it is also a mafia fealling in the film (in the bagining of the film all three of the main charicters are bathed in blood to show that they are dangrouse men.

Mise En Scene

Today in my media i lernt about Mise En Scene.
Mise En Scene is what you put in the frame of your clip/picture.
We looked at:
Settings & Props,
Lighting & Colour,
Positioning of Characters & Objects Within a Frame,

We also took some pictures of:
A unrule Class,
A busy Office,
A dentace watingroom,
A romantic Cafe,

Settings & Props
Setting's are very really background's to the characters' dialog. The Setting's can be used to manipulate the audence.
Props' are objects that are used in a peace of action.

Lighting&Colour
With lighting you will have a briter light on a more inportant charicter/object then anything else to make it stand out even more. By shading section's of the charcter's face/body to make the mood more mysterious. By useing a strobe effect(flashing bright and dark) it will make the audence think the character's is in a confused state.
The colour help's make the mood along with the lighting.

Positioning of Characters & Objects Within a Frame
Positioning of Characters is very inportant because if u have a character in the middle of nowere and the scene is baced in a huge mantion with million pound furncher.
When it come's down to placing object's it would not look to good to have a fireplace of a piano in the middle of a hay field or a bunddle of hay in the middle of a million pound manshon were the piano/fireplace.

This is what we learn't on the 22/09/09
