my production log for my movie

1. By George Gibbard

2. Research/Brainstorming
We came up with a idea of a genre that we though that we would use.
We started off by looking at things such as the mask and chucky as we
had the idea of a movie that was a horror genre and by watching this
movie we took notes of what they all had in common. After seeing what
the all had in common with each other we decided on two ideas for a
movie and how they blended in with school setting. The first idea was a
monkey that was a cop and that he would find the criminals in the
school and arrest them. The other idea that we had was that a child
was bullied and got revenge on the people that bullied him by putting
on a mask which changed the way that he behaved. We discussed the
options between the movies and how they could be made in this
school. We figured out that the movie with the monkey cop would be
hard to film in a school environment but could be used as a way of
starting using the cameras and iMovie.

3. Skills Development Practice
We then started to film the idea that we wasn’t going to use as a
way of practicing with the software and cameras that we was
going to use. This helped us with our project as it meant that we
was all able to get used to the camera and by doing this it meant
that our actual project was able to get on with our project quickly
and easily. Also by doing this we was able to edit our work
quickly and easily because we had been practicing with iMovie
and by practicing we was able to add effects to the movie.

4. Planning
After deciding on what movie we was going to use and
practicing with iMovie we then made our story board and
planned the way that we was going to make our movie. By
making our storyboard we was able to plan everyday of filming
so there was no time wasted. The storyboard meant that we was
able to easily and quickly get on with our work . We then
decided on what script we was going to make but then we
decided on our movie having no dialogue in it and by not having
any dialogue in the movie it meant that we didn’t have to make a
script instead we made a profile of what we was going to do and
at what times so we can find out if we was behind our schedule.
Finally we took pictures of where the shots would be taken and
put the next to the script so we knew where to go and when to
go there

5. Actual filming
We started to film our movie after making our script and our
brainstorming. Then we started filming because at the start it was only
me Lewis and Charlie in the movie and this meant that we all had to do
filming and editing together. Firstly it was me and Lewis filming Charlie
(monster) this meant that we split up the filming between each other.
Then when it was Charlie filming me and Lewis this meant that we was
able to show us getting filmed by him. Then once we had finished
filming the certain parts of the movie Lewis and I started to edit them
we had to crop them which is what I had done. Then Lewis had
