Schedule created: 9/12/09

Shooting of "running" Scene requires only a camera and a tripod and we will begin shooting from the first lesson of 11/12/09 This section will take the longest and will take the rest of this term to finish and as it it is the most substantial part of the opening it should be created with the most care. Scene location: fields of Fothergil Road Wem.

Shooting of "male" Cut in parts. Scene also only requires a camera and a tripod Shooting of this footage will start from the first lesson back in 2010. Scene location: train station Wem.

LOCATION FILMING !!!

Treatment 2:

My opening will start with a Low running camera moving through a field, pushing away the long grass as it moves through. Camera tilts up in a long sweeping movement as i want everything to be slow and over exaggerated, The camera is now giving a full establishing shot of the field, Then, from the corner of the camera the young woman who is running moves into the shot, The woman is running in her full dinner outfit she gets watchers wondering why she is running and why she is wearing that clothing in this surrounding. The music is very slow and misplaced the beat is half the pace of the runner. The camera will follow the woman through the field creating a "home" screen for the Opening, This will then be corrupted by the titles and credits but also the very quick flashes of her male counterpart, show the other side of this failed date, he is sitting at the train station waiting for his train though it comes and he does not get it, this shows that he is maybe not finished, angry with the current situation or he wants another chance, But every time it is cut to this is always reverts back to the "running" scene, to create familiar ground. To create good effects i would like to use filters to enhance the suns rays, to make the "running" scene seem more effective, bright and just, in all to give a positive atmosphere whereas the "male" scene will be made really dark to create as complete contrast and to give a darker, sinister effect, to signify rejection and hatred. I would also like to include handheld camera footage which is purposely mad to be shaky and amateurish. Most of the shots for the "running scene" will be done from the front of the character or from the side this means that they will all be big establishing shot. The "male" scene will be shot from the other side of the tracks so that when the train comes it can sweep past him also it means that it dismisses the need of good acting of curtain people because no close ups will be used. I think this opening should be ended abruptly almost cut and then the film start. :)

treatment 3

Aidans Media Treatment

Establishing shot of the woods where a party is taking place. The camera then jolts through the trees to the party where a group of young people are dancing and having fun whilst in the background a slight blur where a creature is darting through the trees. The camera still focusing on the party as the creature dashes closer through the trees towards the people. An extreme close up of one of the people’s eyes shows the panic as they spot the creature this unnerves the audience. a mid shot is used to show the teenager that points out the creature as it darts through the trees, this sends some of the kids into a riot whilst others are trying to calm the situation. a close up of the fire is used to show the rage and fury of the creature as we focus on the fire we see a blur in the background. we use a mid shot to show the oldest of the kids standing on the edge of the camp just in the lights edge attempting to calm the others down, at this point he is grabbed and dragged into the darkness, this sends the group into a panicked frenzy. all this is shown by the fast editing and fast pace music to emphasize the panic and fear. a final shot of the unlit woods shows the end of the party and the boys life, at this point the creature charges up to the camera and startles the audience and unnerves them, the camera then zooms into the creatures eyes into a black background where the title then darts to the camera.
