Call Sheet

Our group is going to film on the two following dates:

Joe is going to pick up the camera and tripod directly before we want to start filming on the certain dates.

We have decided to use Long Road and a field of Long Road as our location for filming. We will get to the location by walking. The Road and field is a public location and as we are near a road be will take health and safety considerations such as being careful of traffic.

We are filming our opening to a thriller film during the day. The time of day that is going to be portrayed in our opening to a thriller film will be at the end of a college day - so about late afternoon. Therefore no artificial lighting will be needed.

Heidi will be our main character in our film portraying a young girl who is being obsessively stalked and Jamie will act as the stalker. Liberty will play Heidi's college friend and Joe will act as a passer-by in our film. All members of our group will be involved in acting in the opening. A short script will have to be memorised in advance for Heidi and Liberty's characters when they are talking on the way home from college.

All of the group apart from Heidi will be part of the film crew. In the first scene with Heidi and Liberty, Jamie and Joe will be directing and filming the scene. When Jamie comes into the scene as the stalker Joe will continue with the camerawork and directing. When Liberty goes home in the scene she will then become part of the film crew and help Joe film the scene. Liberty will then film the scene where Joe comes into the scene as a passer-by and from then on Liberty and Joe will film and direct the scene where Heidi is running away from her stalker through the field.

In terms of props we will need a black hoody which Joe is in charge of bringing for Jamie to wear during his scenes so he can portray a dark disturbed stalker. Other props that will be used will be Heidi's bag which she will bring in herself and a bracelet that she will already own.

Our back up plan if bad weather disrupts filming is to continue with other work on our thriller film. We can work on the soundtrack and blog work as back up if bad weather disrupts our plans.

We are going to need two filming slots over two days to film our scenes. In our first day of filming we should capture the scenes that will take place on Long Road. In our second and last day of filming we will capture the field scenes where Heidi and Jamie will be involved in a chase scene.

The shots we are going to cover during our opening to a thriller film will include:
FIRST DAY
- establishing shot of Heidi and Liberty walking down the road introducing the location
- medium shots
- long shots
- over the shoulder shots
- shot-reverse-shots
- close ups

SECOND DAY
- tracking shots
- extreme close ups
- long shots
- canted angle shot
- low angle shot
- high angle shot

Sound we will need to capture includes diagetic sound such as the traffic, the train and the conversation between Heidi and Liberty.
