tyrannosaur edits

Overview:
We shot tyrannosaur once. Then realising that the footage wasn't the quality that was necissary we decided to shoot the whole swede again. This time we worked better as a team. Everyone had different roles for each scene (there were three in total). This helped us all get a different view on the whole production of the swede. So now we get the feel of filming, directing and writing screenplays and storyboards. We all had a part in pre-production and filming production. Then we each edited our own swede.
 For scene one I created the storyboard. The storyboard helpss us create the scene order and follow the film shots that we had planned to use in the filming. 
 For scene three i was the director. I didn't really enjoy directing, however the filming came out well with help from the cast. 
 Everyone worked very well together and we all had our own roles, whether it was being a cameraman or acting. Most of us took part in acting in scene two. The funeral scene. We all attending the dogs funeral.
 I think that all the scene turned out well. The extreme long shot in scene two worked very well in giving the audience the feel of the situation and background that we were in. Because a swede is meant to be the opposite of the actual film, we made the funeral have many guests and everyone genually missed the dog, where as in Tyrannosaur it is simply the man burying his dog in his back garden.

Filming Tyrannosaur swede

Wednesday re-shoot of Tyrannosaur

For each scene we had different roles. We had a director, producer (who also produced the call sheet), actors, cinematographers and people to created the story boards and the screenplays. This all came together whilst shooting. The story board and call sheet are created in the order we are going to film the scene in. For all three scenes the story board and call sheets didn't exactly match up due to ad-libbing and some semiotic changes.

First we shot the Bookies scene, where the protagonist comes out of the bookies drunk and looking for his dog 'Fido'.  We changed the name of the dog to Fido because we were shooting a swede and it was supposed to be a comic version. Working title version. We filmed the protagonist coming out of the door of the bookies. Instead of filming at the bookies we filmed outside the school swimming pool. We shot a long shot of the actors coming out of the door. Then had another camera on the actors which was a medium shot. So that we could choose the different shots and which would work better. We then shot 'William' killing the dog. Instead of filing the dog being kicked we filmed from a long shot and 'William' drop kicks the dog and the dog goes flying. We film the dog flying through the air with three different camera shots.

The second shoot that we re-filmed was the funeral scene. Before we filmed the scene in the 'Hobo-centre'. We found some difficulties with this scene due to lighting. The lighting of the scene was quite dark and we found it difficult to choose angle shots that flowed well and got all the actors in. However this time we worked outside. We filmed on grass. The scene was lit up well and we used an establishing shot to get a feel of what was happening. Then moved into a closer shot. Over peoples shoulders and behind the priest (Charles).

The final scene that we shot was the protagonist (William) running into the shop and hiding. In the film Tyrannosaur the protagonist runs into a charity shop and hides behind a clothing rack. Therefore we decided to film the scene in a  mac store. Because we work in a classroom full of macs this is where we set the final scene. We filmed William running in and jumped under the desk full of macs. We again had two cameras therefore when it comes to editing we have choices of cuts and edits. When William was running in we have shots of him running in and we using a low close shot, this was giving him a sense of power. Then the lady who comes up to hum offers him a bottle of champaign instead of a cup of tea. This is again showing us the swede side of our shoot.
