Prelim Task - Planning

To start off with we gathered our group together and began mindmapping ideas we wrote down any little ideas we had to try and get an idea as to what we wanted to do our clip on. In the end we came to the conclusion that it would be best to do an interrogation scene, because of the resources we had.

After this we had to set the scene by choosing where we would be filming so we just used an empty classroom and hallway and made it look more sinister by dimming the lights. We also borrowed some outfits and props from the drama department to make our scene look more realistic by borrowing the police hats and handcuffs. Another prop we used was the pictures that were laid out on the table as a use of evidence against the criminal. We also used a spotlight in the interrogation scene as the only source of light and had to plan where abouts that would be placed for the best effect. 

 Something else we used was a storyboard to help map out and summarise our ideas to what we we're actually going to use. This helped when we came to decide what dialogue to use,because you can see who is going to say what at the specific time frame. The storyboard also helped with deciding what bits we were going to use from our mindmap and pick out the best bits and string them together. Also whilst we were filming we had this handy so we could refer back to it and make sure everything was going as planned.
