7. Looking bach at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to full product?
Task 7: Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to full product?
I think I learned a lot of the preliminary and the main product. I never had thinking how much work it is behind an opening scene. The working it out in my group was very interesting and a lot of work. But when I know look to the Thriller again I’m proud of it and I am happy to say it is finish. The whole filming and editing thinks was all new for me and I did my best to help my group. The experience to make my own thriller was great.
The Prelim Task was very easy and we don’t have to find out a story and had all the research. We made a storyboard and that was it. The main one was much more difficult because we had to think also about lighting and costume and pots. On the prelim task we didn’t had to think about the costume about light. Because all light we did was normal light in the room. When we made a bit lighter we used a desk light to make lighter. We also didn’t had to do now sound we used the sound we get in the room and did nothing which it. Against to our main task we had a lot of sound and also we worked out the lighting as well the special effect to coulourright the scene to make it look like a 60’s studio.
To work in our main part the story out and make the audience get an idea about the story even there is no speaking in it. We also had to make a storyboard to have all information in it and work out where we make lighter or how we will film which shots we would use it and make it look like an opening scene with information but not the all of the story in it. In the prelim task was not so much work to work out the story because we get the story from our teacher. We didn’t have to think much of the shots because we had to make all to improve the ones. We just had to decide in which place we want to have for example the close up to the eyes shot.
As I said on the main part we had to make an opening scene without speaking but the audience have to get the idea what is the film about and how it works just in the 2 minutes. The hardest part is to get this done and have a story which will interest the audience to watch the film. At the prelim task we didn’t had to think about how to make the movie without speaking because we was allowed to put speak in it. It wasn’t really difficult to do this.
Using the Camera was not that difficult. The changing how it was improve was very good to see. The prelim was not good. The shots was all wiggly and not very well done because we haven’t sometime not all in there what we want as well that we didn’t really had a good sound so that it sounds real.
For our main task we had a long shot where we see the office and we did it in one shot so it was a long shot. The difficult think on there was that we had to move the camera without having wiggly in it. To shot the dance scene was not that difficult because we just had to take the camera backwoods so we didn’t have wiggly in it.
In our Main task we have a lot of sound in it. We have different songs from Marilyn Monroe and also we had in the dance scene to put people noises in it. The difficult thing was there that we had to make the sound like the way the lips move. That was really difficult and takes us a lot of time. But we did it really great.
In the prelim task we had no sound in it and we didn’t have to make sound on it. The only sound on it was the speaking bits. We didn’t have to work on the sound in this task.
In our prelim task we didn’t had to do much. The expected in the prelim task was not that much than in the man task. On the prelim task was most important to get the shots right and gets the shots in an order that the movie makes sense to the audience.
On our main task we had much more expected on it. First the story has to make sense the audience and it didn’t had to be boring so that the other once wants to see it. The other thing was that we had to make 2 minutes and had to make our set on our own. The other think was that we had to cut the movie on our own. And also we had to make the sound on our own. On our prelim task we didn’t have to a lot on our work and we didn’t have to make special effect in it.

4. Who would be the audience for youe media product?

Our media product is for teenagers which are interesting at Marilyn. It is also for older audience because Marilyn was very famous in the 60’s which make a bigger audience to go and watch it. The other advantage is that the death of Marilyn is interesting very one because it is never really found out. There are no really definitions between why rich or poor people would not look at it. It will be interesting poor as well rich.
The audience have to be a little bit to Educated because other wise they wouldn’t understand the movie. They also would need general educated to understand all the cohesion about Marilyn and the other story. But I think the movies will anyway just looking people which are interesting on Marilyn and therefore there will be no problem that people wouldn’t understand the film.
It is important that you have a good research for your audience to get the results you want to have. The other point is that you can than if you have a good research to work which them and also get the advertising there where the audience would go and looked the advertising. For example you wouldn’t put your advertising for old people into a bus station but you would if your main audiences are younger one.

My main audience are younger and older ones so I have very big opportunities where I can put and sell my advertising. I could start which putting posters in shops like top shop or in a shopping centre which is good known. And the main point in this are the bus stops and bus because my main audience will going by bus which means they will look at my advertising.
The next part my trailer will be go on youtupe and TV. There are some good reason because my audience would go into the internet very day ( at work/ school / free time ) therefore they will have a look at it. In TV are different companies where I can bring my trailer on it. I have to put them on a new and fresh as well on a older one where are news and documenting shows. For a young audience I could use Gossip girl or sec and the city. For the older one I can use the documentaries and the new.
3. What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?
Task 3: What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?
In one Media lesson we were thinking which companies are the best for our media product. We were thinking which would be worked best and which will be the best to fit into our product. We also had to think about which companies had the image to work which this kind of image our media product will be. Our teacher gives us three possible companies which are three different types of producing films. We had “ New Line Cinema “ , “ Lionsgate” and “Fox Searchlight Pictures” as a choice.
My group choose “ Fox Searchlight Pictures” as our company because they will be worked best with our media product. Fox Searchlight Pictures do always horror , dramedy as well non- English speaking films. We thought that the type of horror will fit very good to our product. The Company did the Hills Have Eyes which was a remade form Wes Craven’s in 1977 film of the same name. It is also a horror film and the same as our film would be that we didn’t need much advertising for the films because of the known before. In the film did the Hills Have Eyes they had before the story so some had heard about it therefore they didn’t need much advertising. In our film it would be as well because our film it based on a real story and there are many fans from Marilyn Monroe which want to see it just because they think they would be get a clearly answer why she died. We also have the pretties women in it so every one will watch it. So we choose that the best worked Company would be Fox Searchlight pictures.

2. how does your product represent particular social groups?
Task 2: How does your product represent particular social groups?
Our audience would be a huge group of people because the film is about Marilyn Monroe which attracts a lot of people as well older than younger audience.
The fact that Marilyn Monroe is a very attract women and she the actor who plays are also a very pretty women which means that it will be interesting mans. The fact that Monroe is very famous and that the story about her death is not really enlightened makes the audience want to see the movie to see how she maybe dead in this story.
The fact that Monroe has a huge fan group makes the movie easy and cheep to sell to the audience.
We also will have some attract mans in it which will attract to the woman’s. The movie have a very big audience group which is very good and of that the movie will be sell very easily and cheep.

Marilyn Monroe Thriller
Our Shoot day began at 8.50 pm like the lesson began. We wanted to film in the studio so we can have a realistic looking office. The walls were there so we didn’t worried about the walls. We have to stand the desk in the right place and put the photos on the wall. The planning for this day was not so good because we thought that we filmed first the dance scene but Luke decide to film first the office shot because the red flow we needed for the film from dements are the best girl’s friends are red and the office are not red. So we put one side with the good Marilyn and the other one with the bed Marilyn. Also we had to find the DVD’s which we want to play but that was not really difficult. The only think was that on the camera you could not listen to the music it was playing on the TV so not like we thinking we deceit to put the sounds later on it. The Office looked very similar to the original storyboard. The only think what was not so good was that we didn’t worked as a group. And if we had known that we start the shoot day which the office shot we would ready for this. The other think would be that we needed more picture as we thought but that we could not known in my opinion. The studio for our dance flow was better than we thought it was more looking more real that we thought and there wasn’t really problem which that. On the dance scene we did not have much to do because Luke and his crew have all done for us. And we count’s not really help them .
For the office shot we had a long and all in all shot. The Problem was there how fast we could go and that there were no stops in it. We had also a problem which the sound in the TV’s because there was a problem on it when you listen to the sound in the camera.. But we decided to put the sound after that on it which makes it easy to makes the sound great we thought. For the dance scene it was a little bit to many people so the problem there was that it was hard to concentrate and we want to have a wild shoot to see all in the shoot but the problem was that there was so many think we had to think about it like the studio looked like a 60 studios and not like 2010 studio. But than we put the camera right in the front and bring the camera back when we filmed. I like the shoot because it shows the hole set and you can see the actors on the scream.
The actors worked quiet well so that the big shoot was very early ready. We decided to do an other shoot where we see the director from Marilyn and the old camera in a shadow. The shots worked very well because we can put there some names in it.
As I said we filmed the shoot in the Studio which was very useful. In the studio we had the change to change the location quickly. It was also important that we had a very big and a wide room to film the dance scene. The advantage of choosing the studio was that we could paint the floor red for the dace scene. We also could have red light what was easy to have because of the studio light was available to take it easy without many circumstances.
The costume was difficult because we had to have 60’s looking outfits and the Marilyn Monroe pink dress from diamonds are the girls best friends. The problem there was to find someone where we could borrow the dress without play a lot for that. Heather and Gabby found one which was looking like the dress in diamonds are the girls best friend. For the dancer we ask if they have a black jacket with them and a white shirt. The hole scene had to look like a 60 ‘s studio with 60’s dresses and we also tried to look that the hair is also looking like a 60’s style. Marilyn Monroe become a pink make up and we had a hair we had unreal hair which makes it easy to look like the hair from Marilyn Monroe.
the casting choice was very easy because we had to need guys with dark hair and a Marilyn Monroe. The man to find with black hair what fast because we didn’t need the faces what was great. The only real problem there was that we didn’t know who could be out Marilyn Monroe but on the end of the day we had some on which was looking great and I think you can’t see that it isn’t the real one. All in one I can say that they worked quiet well and quick but the problem here was that we had to tell him where every single man are going and what they had to do. That was really exhausting for us. the Marilyn Monroe was very good we did not have to tell her all the time what she had to do. She did a great job. But all in one I think I can say that the actors worked very well and they helped us to get the best shoot.
The lighting knew problem for us. The point that we hade the studio was very helpful. For the office shoot it we had normal light that it looked very real and if we had much light the effect would be gone that there is someone working and the light make the shot worked. For the Dance shoot we had red light where we put special red paper on the light so we get the effect that the room is red and the walls are also red looking. We also have the kind of image that we are in a real studio.
We want to have a recording sound in the background at the office out the problem was that it was not working and the noises was so many that it would worked on the TV. The reason for that was that we have too many TV with many different sounds on it so that would be confused to the audience as well we were too. The Problem also was that it would be good quality on it. So we decided to do the sound afterwards.
I honest must say that I did more on the research and looking for the costuming and props staff for our thriller. On the actually shoot day heater and Gabby was more working because they know what we want for the shoot. I helped them where ever I could and not just sit around and wait what was happened. I think we worked quiet well as a group but we could have more a little bit more together and tell the other what they could do and that the other problem was that we not worked realty as a team because every one does his own work what I found good because it wouldn’t worked if we did every thin together so at the end of day we was quicker on which this. But all in one we worked quite well as the a group.
For the office shot we had a long and all in all shot. The Problem was there how fast we could go and that there were no stops in it.

But all in one we worked quite well as the a group.

Final Cut Server
On Friday we started to get a briefing from Matt about the Final Cut Server. How to use it, what is important to make the film together. The Final Cut Server are useful for cut scene and but them together as a film. It is important that you cut the science that they make sense and not just like cut all the science and out them together.
Continuity Editing is the predominant style of editing in narrative cinema and television. The purpose of continuity editing is to smooth over the inherent discontinuity of the editing process and to establish a logical coherence between shots. It means to use the Continuity so that it makes sense if you put the sense together to the audience. In most films, logical coherence is achieved by cutting to continuity, which emphasizes smooth transition of time and space. Some films incorporate cutting to continuity into a more complex classical cutting technique, one which also tries to show psychological continuity of shots. The montage technique relies on symbolic association of ideas between shots rather than association of simple physical action for its continuity.
We started to use a whit short to show all the scene that the audience get to know what is in there happened. To get the scene you want you have to cut the scene by press the button “i” for start and to end the scene you has to press “o” after that you have the scene which you want. After that you can make the scene together with other scene and put them so together that the science makes sense together. Or you can get more information in that for example you get a close up to the mouth when it is important what he or she is saying. If you start filming a film it is important to get a story board because you have to make sure that you have all shorts which you want and that you have different shorts to make the movie more interesting that you don’t see the hole movie just from a white short.

Editing
Mat gives us a introduction how to cur our opening scene. First off all we chose the best opening shot for our thriller which we think was the best. The problem about it was that we had not so much short for the first one because it was the long one where we get to see the office with the entire picture from Marilyn Monroe. In the office was also set up for different TV’s which we want to see different kind of movies from Marilyn Monroe. The Problem there was that of the length from the shot we had to do in ones. So some tracks was halting. That wasn’t that what we want to have for our Thriller so we chose in my opinion the best short where the halting was not so much. Than we choose the best shot from the dance scene where we looked that it looks very back in the 60’s. When we had chosen the best tracks from all we discuss how to bring the shots together that it makes sense to the audience and it looked great. That takes us about two days. On the other days we started to put the music under it. But also there we had a problem because when we filmed the short with the screams we decide to put the music later on even the track for this was playing so we had just the mouth speaks.
