Classwork

 These are some key terms and theories we learned throughout our time in media studies class. Some of the work was taken from my teacherrs slides and somes is from the material we produced in class.

Location Scout and Risk Assessment

 This is my groups location scout and risk assessment

This was done by Me (Sagara) and Panji

Self Reflection:

The Location Scout and Risk Assesment wasn't too much of an issue for me an my group, despite changes in the overall theme of our film opening we always had these 2 locations in mind pretty much ever since we got into our groups so not much thought, planning, or research was needed to find main filming locations. What was hard though was finding alternatives to either of those locations, we did have time to find them during class but didn't really find any that we could use so we just have to stick with these.

Script and Screenplay

 This is my groups script and screenplay.

The script was a group effort between Me, Panji, and Alex.

Self Reflection:

   I can't say at all that I'm satisfied or happy with our script and screenplay, though originally Arnolds vision didn't require a script, our teacher stated that our film opening did not make any sense without it and we needed a script as a saving grace. The structure of the screenplay was horrible since I did not have any prior experience to making one, faced technical difficulties, and also just felt like I needed to focus on the content rather than the structure of it.

   

   Originally Arnold was supposed to be the script and screenplay writer but after our group cohesion and form effectively broke apart, me, Panji, and Alex to initiative and tried to write one as good as we possibly could, however we did feel rushed considering the limited time we had so it was really scuffed and low in quality, but it's all we can get.

Storyboard

 This is the progress of my groups storyboard and the final results.

The Storyboard was a joint effort between Alex and Arnold.

This was my groups first attempt at doing a storyboard, we realised though as we were doing it that this method of being detailed took way too long and as wasn't really efficient, because of this we decided to change it to a much simpler method. 

We also had to change a single aspect of the film which was the cigarette, the teacher taught us that smoking isn't cool and he'd get into trouble, so we switched it to something else.

This is my groups actual storyboard.

Self Reflection:

I can't say much regarding the storyboard since I played no role in it at all, though I did try to create a single box, my group had to bleach their eyes after seeing it so I gave full reign to both Alex and Arnold.

Unfortunately, we did not follow or use our storyboard at all considering how much reshoots and changes we had on our film and shooting, we effectively abandoned it and decided to do things by scratch which I think didn't ended up too well.

Screen Tests

 We as a class did a screen test together to help us decide which actors to choose.

Self Reflection:

Based off of this screen test, it seems that we are stuck between a rock and a hard place when it comes to our possible choice of actors, despite this my group will make due with the members we have and Gusde would be a great addition to our project as a cameo or side character
