(POST 29) Working from a script 10- Directing style

-

In this production we are mostly going to create our own style with aspects of Hitchcock moulded into this, We have chosen to use aspects of Hitchcock style as he mostly relies of the visual medium making sound secondary, therefor the audience don't need the sound to gather what is happening rather the emotions they will be portraying will be fare of informative. we feel that this would be visually interesting and allows up to build on the creation of Narnia as every shot builds on the ambience of Narnia.
    Secondly Hitchcock uses suspense as a main part of his style building it up with his steady development of plot allowing the tension to build, this relates to the moment the children find out their prophecy therefor we will slowly building up the anticipation throughout the scene creating an interesting scene for the audience to view.
    Lastly another part of Hitchcock style is creating a whimsical setting, this relates to Narnia as our main objective with setting it to create a place where the audience is aware that this is a different place that isn't in this world adding onto the feel of Narnia and building on the production as a whole.

Little time is spent revealing where the film's ET has come from, or how he came to be left behind. Instead, Spielberg focuses on the film's unlikely-buddy story; the middle child of three (Drew Barrymore is the sweet but clingy younger sister, Robert MacNaughton the cynical teenage big brother), Elliott takes in the ET as the friend and confidant he doesn't have. Largely filmed from an a...

rough cut

Before completing my finial film, i created a rough cut. This allowed me to experiment with ideas, trail out ideas and also try different techniques with editing and camera angles. In my rough cut i used the same settings as i wanted to in my finial piece, however used different actors. For my finial cut i want to use my Nan and Grandad as the two actors, however as they live in London i needed to experiment before they came down to film. This led me to using my friend and mum in my rough cut footage.   When filming the rough cut i used the poem i had found over the top of the footage to see how this could work in the real film. I felt this was extremely successful. I felt i really benefitted from completing a rough cut as it allowed e to review and refine my ideas.
