GarageBand

Myself and my parnter decided to make our own music , however I was unable to attend garageband due to other work commitments so Tamana made the music herself. We were inspried by the orpahnages music and decided to base our music on the sound of the music they have used as its creepy and builds suspense. In order to create the music a software called garageband was needed to be used. A variety of insturments were avavliable but it took her a while for her to  find the one pasfic piano tune she wanted , she wanted to use this one as horror films usually have pianos in them and add a sinister feel to things . Tamana did not just use the piano in the tune she decided she wanted to use a drum beat in there also so she added it in half way to build tension for the scene. As the music comes near to the end a deep sound of a drum plays to show something is about to happen , this will play when my character is walking in the room. At the end of the music the drum and string stop playing and only the piano is left as my character is about to open the door and see the little girl. When the little girl jumps out a loud noise is played and then the music stops.

Production logos

Me and my partner decided we wanted to call our production logo : Crystal Clear Prodctions. We have an idea of how we what it to appear on the scene , we would like the colour of the writing to be white and the background black. It will shatter after being seen for a few seconds. We done this to create an oxymoron as the production company is named crystal clear prouctions and the logo shatters we thought that this would be interseting that the name contrdicts whats happening.

After effect

To make out production logo we used a softwear on the Macs which is called After effects. This softwear helps you to create openings for films with out filming anything.

Practice Test Lesson

Our first lesson using the softwear was Friday the 12th November where we were taught my the technition teacher how to use the softwear so that we are familiour with it and can use it our selves when making our proper production logo.

It's a very dificult softwear to use and the instructions which were given by the teacher kinda confused me and my partner which ended up with our practise logo not turning out like everyone else's.We got help in the end and was taught face to face how it worked but then again it didn't come out like everyone else's and we got a bit stuck on what most of the functions were. We were told to then go experiment with the softwear but ended up runining our practise logo.

However we were told that we could come to study support after school every tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday to get help from the teacher's and create the final production logo.

Our idea for our production logo is for the words to be in clear white with a backgroudn light shining through it and then for the words to shatter in glass peices towards the screen and then for the screen to go black.

Setting and Props

Settings : 

For our setting the main place was my house however we also shot down my road and a park in Crystal Palace but due to some footage of the park scene missing we had to film the park scene in a different location in Croydon.

    

This picture is outside my house where match on match action shot is taken from side ,

 front view of the main character (me) while rushing to open the door

This is my hall way , where the first shot inside  will be shown.
The bang from upstairs is shown from this scene

This is my bedroom where the wardbode scene will take place 

This is the stairs where the camera tales a birdeyes view and
overshoulder shot following the main character to the room ,
 just as she's about to find the little girl 

The exposure of the little girl takes place in  this setting (the wardbode) 

This is the second park we shoot at 

Props : 

We used props for both our main characters the little girl and the woman . We made the woman wear a suit to show she's a mature successful women compared to the immature teen that she was when her little sister was in the accident (this plot is learnt further on in the film). The little girl wears a mask to give a creepier affect to the film this prop was inspried by the mask the girl wears in the orpahnage 

This is the main prop used in our flim : the little girls mask
