Cast and Prop list: Released

Cast:

Khalida = Sofia
I have selected Khalida as my main character because she has a drama GCSE
from her previous secondary school, this means that she has experience in acting and therefore she will be able to make a realistic portrayal of the character that I have created: Sofia. Furthermore, Khalida fits the description of the character perfectly, which means that it will be easier for me to produce the film that I wanted to create.

Gabriel = Derek

 I have chosen Gabriel to play the role of Derek in my film as I think that he will be able to easily portray the mysterious characteristics that Derek holds and it will look quite natural.

Nzinga, Deondre = background characters

I have chosen Nzinga and Deondre to act as background characters, this is because during my scenes in the park if there are people walking around in the background it will look more realistic and therefore will make the film appear less "fake" and allow the audience to focus on the storyline/action.

Props:
  • Letters/bills - Which are needed for the scene where "Sofia" is looking through them as an introduction to her lifestyle/financial struggles.
  • Jacket - Sofia grabs her jacket and slams the door shut, this places emphasises on her mood in this scene.
  • Mobile phone - This is a key prop in several scenes as it reveals Derek as being Sofia's stalker which is a key plot twist as we see photos of her on his phone.
  • Picture of "Sofia" on phone
  • Glass of water
  • Clock - By showing the time (4am) on the clock it makes the scene seem eerier.

Open/closed ending narratives

Open/closed ending narratives O pen-ended narrative: The Dark Knight Rises (2012) An open-ended film is when a film or show ends with no clue as to what will happen next whereas a closed-ending narrative is when a film or a show ends with no confusion and the audience don't have to question what will happen next. The Dark Knight Rises is an open-ended film, this is due to the fact that it ends with Bane and Talia revealing that there is an armed device due to detonate just before they die. As the film ends like this, it is open for future directors to make a sequel to the film. This is effective because it means that they can make even more profit from a popular film by making sequels. There are also many other advantages such as the fact that it keeps the audience guessing what will happen next and contains an element of surprise as often in open-ended narratives there are plot twists, take The Dark Knight Rises as an example of this as in the end of the film we find...

Todorov's narrative structure: The Lord of the rings Todorov's narrative structure is the theory that most stories follow the same narrative structure which consists of five parts: equilibrium, disruption, recognition, repair and finally a new equilibrium. He proposed that this was to keep the reader intrigued so that they keep reading or watching. In this essay i will be using J.R.R Tolkiens series of books/films 'The Lord of the rings' to analyse how Todorov's narrative structure is presented. EQUILIBRIUM:   During the equilibrium stage of the film we see Bilbo Baggins hand down the main prop in the film which is the 'one ring' to Frodo, that as far as we know is rightfully the creature, Gollum's property as it was stolen from his cave after he stole it from Sauron during the ancient battle for middle earth. After Frodo accepts the ring the wizard Gandalf is  introduces him to the quest that comes with it. This is intriguing to the audien...

Single vs multi-camera productions essay

Single vs multi-camera productions essay Sitcoms such as Friends are filmed using multi-camera production in front of a studio audience. This is due to the fact that dialogue between characters is usually quite fast paced and it would be time-consuming to film one character talking then stop and film the next character, whereas by using multiple cameras the director can achieve a fluent conversation between characters, consequently, overall there is an improved level of continuity, multi-camera's also shoot the scenes in a shorter amount of time which is much more enjoyable for the audience as they can watch a continuous/more natural conversation rather than feeling like they are wasting their time by watching each individual shot being filmed by a single camera. Their multi-camera setup is shown below. Furthermore, the use of multi-camera production is effective as it is easier to see different scenes/characters perspectives or dimensions, for example in friends it is eas...
