1. FMP 2 Diary Week 5
Last week, I conducted two experiments, the killer’s point of view shots and moving shots, for the
killer point of view shots I held an iPad up to my face and stalked Brody (who volunteered for my
experiments), I also chased him down a hallway with a person holding the iPad over my shoulder.
For the second experiment I got a person to move the iPad from Brody to me and I got two more
people to move a chair with the iPad on it to make a moving/chasing shot. This week, I started my
pre-production Power Point where I filled out the pre-production assessment section, I made slides
on: locations, equipment, personnel, and props/costumes and I’ve just started my storyboard. For
the locations slides I explained that I would be filming the exterior shots in the Hospitium building in
town gardens and the interior shots in my house. For the equipment slide I explained I would be
using my: iPad, Tripod, Microphone, iMovie, Computer, YouTube and Wix. For the personnel slides I
explained that it would just be my parents and me doing all the film roles and I had to list their
strengths and weaknesses. For the props/costumes slides I explained that I had most of the props
and costumes at home, but the practical effects would be hard to get a hold of. Even though I just
started my storyboard I was able to fill out two sheets using my pencil drawings. Writing this Power
Point and story board changed my ideas as my research showed that some aspects of my project
were too ambitious (locations, gore, costumes). Therefore, I had to simplify some aspects of my
project.
