Titles

As a group we felt it was vital to have our film opening look as professional as possible, one way we felt we could achieve this is by correctly using titles. I went on http://www.artofthetitle.com/title/21-jump-street/ then as a group we decided to list our titles as such:

• Directed by Serine Houadef 
• Starring George Wilson and Ellie Childs 
• Cinematography by Mya Chopra-McFarlane
• Written and Edited by Ellie Childs, Mya Chopra-McFarlane, Serine Houadef, George Wilson
  
  
  (this is similar to how '21 Jump Street' (2012) set out their titles)
  
  
  We are still in the process of deciding whether to include: Music by... , Screenplay by... and Produced by... 
  
  
  
  

Vlog 2

Our second vlog shows our group in the process of re-recording the scene which shows me being attacked. This extra footage was vital for our film opening as we significantly improved the footage we had previously. In this blog you can see Mya put the bag over my head, i then proceed to react more dramatically and for a longer of period of time whereas previously i only struggled for half of the time and my reaction was less lively.

Re-shoot

After around 5 trips to Bush Hill Park to film our film opening we thought we had finished. However when editing and playing through the footage we had, as a group, we noticed numerous continuity errors, for example people in the back in one shot then not in the other. In addition, our story line shows a person suffocating me with a plastic bag however when gaining approval of some of our classmates we realised we should of filmed it differently. As a result of this we re-visited the estate we filmed in and recorded an improved version which looked a lot more authentic.

First Vlog

Our first vlog, as a group, we discuss the names for our film. I thought of the name 'Made In The Estate' as we researched UK crime dramas and found a film with the similar name 'Made In Britain'. When looking into the story line of this film, i felt adapting the name of their film to suit our film opening would be suitable as the crime themes are similar.
