Wednesday 26th Novemeber - started drawing out the first page of our storyboard, we unable to finish it this lesson due to lack of time and constantly producing new ideas. We started off by drawing all the ideas and then starting again a fresh when we are able to order the clips but at the moment we are still running new ideas off each other.

Thursday 27th Novemeber- We began to order our storyboard, and research into our target audience. Also charli asked Amy Helena and Lucy about starting in our piece and all have confirmed.

Inbetween these dates we completed our storyboard and added small sections due to it not being long enough, as it was only 55 secs until we added a 30 second actor piece which led it to be 1 min 25 sections. We tweaked our storyboard some more and have got it close enough to 2 mins with some time left over incase clips are needed to be extended or needed to add small clips in.

Friday 5th Decemeber- Charli and i created a mind map of possible name for our film piece...
and decided that The Mentality would be the best name as it means irrational way of thinking. We feel this is appropriate as our film consises of a teenage girl appearing to imagine seeing and hearing things. We came up with using the, as many other films in the thriller genre do so such as:

• the ring


• the usual suspect


• the grudge


• the french connection


• The Lady From Shanghai.

Storyboards;
These are the storyboards and extra information that goes along side our storyboard.

Charli and i have decieded to start filming after exams in January, due to time being consentrated on revision. However i think we may need to start earlier than this as we could end up with alot of rushing around and not leaving enough time to consider technical problems or problems involving other people using equitment. Our shooting schedule recomemends that it will take us four days to film our piece leaving us enough time to edit.

19th december - started to plan our music and sound for our final piece.
