Luke Simpson

2. Process
This was the first week of our FMP. In the first few days we
started our initial Plans. I started off saying what my first
reaction to my FMP. I had lots of ideas running around my
head such as a horror film or and action film. After that I
made a mind map and a mood board, I had to brain storm
ideas for my film and then I wrote in the mind map the
ideas I have. I then wrote about my characters, location
and props.
Also in this week I started to do some research on the type
of film I wanted to do in my case it was horror so I had a
look at a couple of existing products so I started looking on
Crypt TV, I took a while because I started looking at a
couple of videos made by crypt tv.

3. Process
This was the second week of our FMP. In this week I
began doing some more research I looked at some
more research I looked at 3 more short films which
where sunny family cult episode 1, the jester and 2AM
the smiling man.
I wrote about the shots they used, the characters, the
props they used and the special effects used. after I
researched the products I analysed the researched
looking what was good about the film, what where the
recurring themes are and also looking at the editing
techniques used.

4. Process
This was the third week of our FMP. In this week I
made a survey for my audience research for my FMP I
made my survey on a website on survey monkey, it was
easy to use. Once I finished the survey I got people to
take my survey.
After I got my survey back I took a screen shot of each
question and I reviewed each question. Also in this
week I wrote 5 question that links with my film I am
making, and I got some of my friend to answer them,
once I got the questionnaire back I made an
observation on the questionnaire. And then finally I
made a bibliography of all the sites and videos I used.

5. Process
This was the fourth week of our FMP. In this week I
started to write my proposal I talked about my
audience like what is the age, gender and their social
grade. This will gives me ideas of how I will be able to
make my film.
Then I put in what I learned from the other few
rotation and how I will use the, skills in my FMP. Also in
my proposal I put my concept of my film, I wrote down
the basic idea of what my film will be. And finally how I
will evaluate my film after. After I did that I made a
schedule of the 10 weeks I will be doing my FMP for
and then after that I made another bibliography for my
Proposal .

6. Process
This was the fifth week of our FMP. In this week I started
my pre-production. I started off by making style sheets, I
talked about the colours used in some horror films such as
hush and you’re next. After I talked about the style sheets
and made a story board which showed what my film would
look like, I made the story board on a website called story
board that. Then I made a table for all the resources that I
would need and also a table for health and safety.
Then I made a contingency plan, I wrote about the
potential problem, the effect on production that problem
would have, then how will I solve that potential problem
and what person would be responsible for it. And finally I
wrote my script and with the script I wrote a shot list for
my film.

7. Process
This was the sixth week of our FMP. In this week I started
my production experiment. I start off by experimenting
with different font style for my title card, I went on DaFont
and chose 3 good fonts that look suitable in my film, I made
it on Photoshop because that is where I would make my
actual title card. After I finished it I went outside and I shot
some clips and worked on some camera techniques that I
might use in my film.
Once I did that I went back into the room and I worked on
some editing techniques that I would use in my film such a
someone teleporting which I wanted to use for a CCTV shot
I wanted. Then I wrote a reflection about the shots I did
and how I might use it in my film

8. Process
This was the seventh week of our FMP. In this week I
started my production of my film. I started off by shooting
my film at my house. I had help from my friend Josh. It took
us a few hours to do the filming but we got it done in a day
and I shot some extra shots to make sure if some of my
shots weren't good I have spare ones to use.
When I got back to collage I started piecing all of my clips
together putting all of them in order and cutting all of parts
I didn’t need.

9. Process
This was the eighth week of our FMP. In this week I
started to make the score for my film. I got help from
my music teacher. We started off by watching my first
cut of my film and we used his keyboard and just
experimented, what will fit the score and what
wouldn't fit. We messed around with some cool
sounds and col instrument, we did half of the score at
the start of the week. When I went back to collage I
started to put some of the music into the film and cut
out some of the score that I didn't’t need . I also
started to do some sound and visual effects. And later
in the week I finished off making my sound track.

10. Process
This was the ninth week of our FMP. In this week I
started to put the rest of the music into my film and
like the other week I cut out some of the score I
didn't’t need. I also did some sound editing making
sure that it is all synced up. Then I started to put some
sound effects in my film such as some creaking
footsteps, a crashing window, knocking on the window
and someone screaming.
Then I put some visual effects into my film which was
the blood marks on the dead boy. And then I just
finished off by cutting so scenes out because they
didn’t really fit in my film.

11. Process
This was the tenth and final week of our FMP. In this week
I started to do my evaluation. I started evaluating
research, planning, time management, technical qualities
and so one. Then I got some pier feedback from people in
my class and then I reviewed their feed back and wrote
my final evaluation of my who FMP project and my final
conclusion.
Also during this week I sorted out some of my other
documents making sure everything is as good as I can get
them because I want to get as high as a mark as I can get.
