Location scouting 2






Here are some more locations which i coouldn't fit in the last post. like before most of the location take place in Piccadilly circus or Oxfard circus. The reason why i want to film in those location is beacause there is a lot of activity in that location, such as new building being worked on and the vase amount of people from different origins.

Teaser trailer pitch

The trailer will have the main characters in it , however they do not speak but instead portray emotional jesters to communicate to the audience. This is so that we can gage what the characters are thinking. The main plot of the film will not be told but will be suggested through clues. The whole teaser will be in black and white - to have a good contrast between shadows and lights. By doing this it will be easier for the audience to concentrate on one thing. For example the background could be darker than the characters on screen, making the character the centre of attention of that shot. There will also a small bit of narration in the teaser trailer, to explain everything vaguely to the audience. The music in the teaser will be slow and emotional, so that the audience is attached to the characters and story of the teaser ,even though that do know that much about it. Throughout the teaser there will be establishing shots of different locations, such as a shot of a prison and buildings under construction. Many of the shot of the main character will be close up to get more of a felling from them. Several quick cuts of icons and symbols to imply some of the plot, and also shots of places people recognise or have been , to have more of a connection between he audience

Film pitch

Book title:
Time period: contemporary

Logline
A group of musicians are broken up by there main vocalist being murdered ,and then just after framed for the murder. The group is then locked up for several years, and come out completely changed people.

Treatment
Three musicians loose everything just at the top of the career when there main vocalist suddenly is murdered. They have no clue who and why would anyone would want to do this - but the worst part is when they are all framed for the murder and locked up innocent of the crime, due to the evidence held against them.

The group had a hard time in jail, and had to adapt to there new environment. Slowly, when the years past, this changed them some physically and mentally. When they were finally let out of jail, some decide to find out who framed them. The others wasn’t mentally well enough to do so. This leads to them to find out that what happened was bigger than they thought.

Location scouting








Here are some locations were i wish to films. All of these photos are taken by myself in location were i though it would be intreasting to film. some of these location will only be seen in teaser for maybe less than a second but i do think that every loaction is important for the type of setting and genre of your teaser. may of these loaction take place in ether Piccadilly circus or Oxfard circus or locations near there.

Here is a magazine which i've learned quite a bit from. what i learned it that the main image of the magazine should be i catching so that reader would look at the cover and would want to read it. The man expression and his hands jesters suggest that something may have happened and he can't do much about it.However this isn't a movie poster and it isn't ment to really tell a story of the character however it makes the cover really intresting. Much of the text tries to stay away from the main image, with the title of the magazne behind the man, which i like take note of. Most of the text in in white and anything important is highlighted in red like "Kevin Spacey".

The reason i chose this poster of a magazine is because the the expression in this character face. He may not be human but it is something i wish to take point on form my own creation of my poster. The background is a a simple clear black and i noticed that the texting this magazine is very big and simple, which i believe should be similar for my magazine.

Story board




here is my first draft for my storyboard i wish to more storyboards to have more choices for my final product.


Here im looking at a magazine cover which is im mainly black and white, beside the title of the magazine which is in pink to stand out. you also notic on the lower right corner of the magazine you will see a logo in full colour, which is also from the magazine. The cover tries to stay faithful to the main image in the cover. the image of the man in the poster make you wonder who he is and what is he thinking about, this is also helped by the sunglasses he is wearing. Around the main image,there are just quote from what seems to be from some sort of interview from the man in the poster.
