textual analysis

  
This was quite a good font but as a group we decided it did not fit in with our childish immature theme, but the scary side to it would have looked quite good.

As this font only came in caps lock, we decided that it would be too in your face and it was not the best for our film, although we did like the background to this font.

This is our chosen font as it is childlike and fits with our film because be portrayed to be very sadistic given the music portraying a hate feeling or a revenge feeling.

This text seemed a little too innocent for the begging of our film. The childlike writing was good for fitting with our film but it did not have a scary side to it.


Looking at different fonts helped me because i had to decide on a font for our film, so researching different fonts helped us see what was suitable for our film. For example we could not have a font like kristen is to feminine for a thriller. We decided to go with a different font than imagend after putting the font with music and after experimenting.

Storyboard of our idea

This was an establishing long shot showing the setting at the beginning of our animatic.
The camera then zooms into the location, showing the locket on the floor.
The next scene is a long shot of luke finding the locket on the floor and picking it up. The camera from behind at a high shot.
The camera then turns to the side of him, still at a high angle so we can see his body language picking up the locket.
The camera then went to over the shoulder. This shows the locket in luke's hand clearly open, and in perfect focus, whereas luke's head is not in focus. This automatically makes you focus on the locket.
The camera then goes to a low angle looking up at luke, so we can see his reaction when he opens the locket.
The camera zooms into luke's face (close up) to make his reaction more clear to the viewer.
It then zooms into and establishing extreme close up to show the inside of the locket again to show an extreme close up of the person inside the locket.
It then shows a long shot of the locket on the floor, with luke backing away from it with a shocked expression. The camera in the same angle as what he is.
It then shows the locket dropped on the floor ( establishing extreme close up) in the leaves.
It then shows an extreme long shot of luke running away with a shocked expression.


Me and luke decided to take pictures as a rough idea of what our animatic is going to look like. We have taken various shot's with various scene's so when we make our animatic we know exactly what were doing and we are organized.
