Shown below is the second attempt of our photoshoot. Even though the photos are better focused this time the shoot was, once again, unsuccessful. We decided that the photos would be best taken outside and now that the now gloomy weather would help set the right mood and make it easier to photoshop. In These photos, it was also impossible to achieve the idea we wanted so by taking the shoot outside we would have the resources we needed.

This week Rosie and I completed the script for our radio advert and we also recorded it. We decided to stay ture to some of the conventions of a radio advert but we wanted to be mysterious and make the audience ask questions.
The conventions we stayed true to are as followed:
- Keeping it short
- Name the stars of the film to attract an audience
- Include all of the needed information e.g. certificate, date of release etc
In our production meeting we brainstormed points we should stay aware of to make an effective advert:
Out of all the tasks we need to complete for this coursework we found the radio advert to be the least problematic. It was the least problematic as we had all of the equipment we needed and we were able to reuse the voice recordings we did for the film.
The script is shown below:

On 3rd November we went out to try and take photo's for out poster. Before we went out to shoot we brainstormed ideas:
Due to lack of experience concerning the SLR camera we were using the photos didn't turn out as planned. As well as this after the shoot we thought of better ideas for the poster and therefore the photos were scrapped.
The photos we took are shown below:
Below is a link to the album with the photos in: http://s1143.photobucket.com/albums/n621/rosies13/Mind%20Trap%20-%20Poster%20Shoot%201/
All of these pictures are unedited, which is why they are so bright. We were, if the photos worked how they wanted, going to edit the photos to make them darker and more shadowed as out brainstorn suggests.

3rd November
Over half term we managed to film everything we needed for our short film. However, when we got back to school and rewatched the clips we realised that many shots needed to be refilmed. As well as this we felt that we needed to film more content (Lucy running, extra angles etc) to ease worries of not having enough footage and to make the overall resulting film flow better. We have arranged a 3rd day of filming and arranged everything we need with the actor playing Lucas and made sure that he will be wearing the same clothes. As well as reshooting shots we have decided that we are ready to take photos for our poster so we have borrowed a flip camera, tripod and SLR camera from the school. We made sure we could use a SLR camera as even though Rosie's digital camera is high quality we had issues with it last years coursework as the pictures were not properly supported by adobe programmes

Day two of filming:
Day two of filming was dedicated to the outside sections of the screenplay. we had to keep watch of the light and time as we had to make sure it didn't start getting dark while recording. Also, due to us recording in a public place we kept on having to re shoot sections because people would walk in from of the camera or be heard more clearly that any actual dialogue.
Due to technical issues we, unfortunately, do not have photos of the second day of filming.

Story board:
Filming day one:
On day one we completed the indoor filming. We ran into troubles when shooting in the bedroom due to lack of floor space for the tripod. Laughing was also a reoccurring issue. However overall the indoor shoot went well. We decided to dedicate separate days for the indoor and outdoor filming to make sure we didn't run out of sunlight or have drastic changes in lighting from shot to shot. Inside this isn't an issue but it is when we get to outdoor filming.
