I haven't blogged about my coursework yet, so i guess that this is as good a time as ever
Im in a group with Matt and CK, crazy, i know
we are making the 2 minute introduction to a film called
Its about a young man, jason cole who is trying to take back a suitcase from a corrupt, wealthy, loanshark businessman, Simon Gray. The suitcase contains his brother's money, who committed suicide as a result of Simon Gray's theft of his money.
The scene starts with Cole approaching Gray's house, he hops his fence and carefully breaks into his house. Once inside, he searches the house for the suitcase, he goes upstairs and inside one of the bedrooms is a nasty suprise..
At the moment, the whole scene is 2 minutes 15 seconds.
I am the only actor for the whole scene
The film's main USP is it's style; it is a cross between film noir and Kill Bill, it is all filmed in black and white and has a sinister look to it
At the beginning of the film, there is rap/grime music that is diegetic, Jason cole is listening to it on his mp3. When he is infront of the house, he stops the music and carries walks up the drive. The sound of his heartbeat gradually increases throughout the scene. about a minute into the scene, the frame freezes and the voice of Jason Cole (Matt) does a quick narration. When he is going upstairs his heartbeat is quite fast and loud then, when he opens the door the music heard at the start of the scene starts up again and the film ends.
At the moment, i still have to finish the editing, which inclues;
-putting the credits in
-adjusting the sound levels
-sorting out a jump
hopefully, i will have finished the editing by the end of this week, then we will have to do our evaluation and make a DVD of the film itself, bloopers, a director's (Matt) commentary, extra scenes and filming information
