Research and Planning - Group Meeting

After recent filming, we have decided not to follow any of our previous proposals and we have re-written our script. Much of our filming has been improvised, as we have used the script as more of a rough copy and improvised to 'put the meat on the bones of the product'. We have decided we shall be using a storyline of two drug dealers living in an area and a rival drug dealer arriving there. We will end on a cliffhanger of the main girl character being grabbed and we will focus on creating a hook involving violence shown from both drug dealer parties.

Research and Planning - Filming

Over the holidays we managed to arrange a day where we were all free so we could do some more filming. We wrote a new script however we decided to mostly improvise. We had an idea of some more shots that we should include after watching This is England LOL Story such as a shot of the camera following a person from behind so you can see the back of their head and over the shoulder. We got lots of footage so I will spend time going through it and seeing what we can use in our trailer and put it together.
