Final Production Logo

Here, is our final production logo for one out of the two we are planning to use. I really like the simplicity of it and the image of the two tapes, as it relates to film and is bold and eye catching.

Possible Production Logos

Here is a definite logo we will be using for one of our production companies. We have used a fade in and out animated efefct on the logo to make it look spooky and allow the audience to know what genre the film will be.

These two are possible logos for our other production company 'Valamount Entertainent', we have yet to decide which one we will choose, but I really like the boldness of the black and white flower one.

Credit Research

As we have reached the stage of creating credits for our film, I watched a few film openings and analysed the use of credits. The common trend seemes to start with the production company, followed by the leading actors name, then the title of the film. This surprised me as I always thought the title would appear towards the end of the credits, not the beginning.
The next credits that followed were the other actors followed by other elements such as casting, music, costume, editor, production designer, director of photography, executive producers, prouducers, screenplay and finally the director. I never noticed that the director appeared at the end of the credits, this inspired me to do this for my film also.
From looking at my research it has made me change my mind about the order of my credits and has made me consider where to place the title, towards the beginning or end of the film. I will also incorporate some of the credits into the film such as 'music supervisor' and 'casting'as it makesthe film look more realistic.

Possible Production logo

Here is the basis of a production logo we would like to use, this is the definite name we just will use a logo next to it to make it stand out more and make it look more legitimate. Ideas we have had so far are an eye or a flower.

Graveyard Filming

During Fridays lesson  me and Valentina went to film in the graveyard next to our school. We got a variety of shots of me walking towards and standing opposite the grave, we attempted to do over head shots (with Valentina practically attempting to climb a tree) and we did panning shots and long shots as well as side shots. After our filming we went back to see what footage we had, luckily it looks effective and we now have more footage which improves our film and adds to the storyline.

Filming on Friday

In Fridays lesson we are hoping to film our last part of footage for our film opening, we need this footage as without it there is not enough variety of different shots and also it will help develop the story of the opening. We will be using the nearby graveyard next to school and will shoot a gravestone and our character, visiting her brother, we're hoping to get some good shots to give our opening different varieties. Hopefully this will be all the filming we will need to do and we will have all the footage needed.

Possible Logo

After experimenting with different ideas, Valentina created this eye for a potential logo for our production company. I think it is simple yet effective and also ties in with our film as the shot of the fire in the eyes is the key part of our opening. We have yet to settle on a final logo, and we may even change the colours of the eye to make it appear more simple, perhaps changing the whole thing to black and white.
Anyway, its an option..
