Film Progression..

So after my idea to base the opening two minutes of a film on the theme of a plastic bag, in the genre of a mockumentary, went horribly wrong and didn't work, I decided to do something else.


The film I'm currently in the process of editing is about a young girl called Amelia Archer, who at the age of nine is a budding poet, the opening two minutes consists of her reading out a poem she has written about her dad who ran away leaving behind his three girls and wife for another woman. based on a true story. I have decided to call the film 'A broken promise'

So far in class i have put together just over the first minute. I will be posting my storyboards and what i have done so far in the next few days. Apologies for the lack of blog updating recently due to family commitments, but will keep on top of it from now on.


these are a few snaps of what i have done so far, these are accompanied by music and audio (voice over) which is a nine year old speaking.

With this filming, I ahve tried to use different shots, using a wide randge of angles and i ahve cross cut scenes, and also used transition within the audio and music so it's flowing and doesn;t jump from one piece of music to the next.
