Filming update

Hopefully me and my friend Rathe Temple-Green will be able to borrow a Sony HD digital video recorder from our mutual friend Dave Holmes. This will allow me to take footage with a very high resolution. As well as this, it comes with a tripod which will be very helpful when trying to get some steady shots. As of yet I have not completely gathered together all the ideas that I have for my film, but a storyboard is coming soon.

First idea for film story

We have finally decided upon a concrete story for our film:-

There is a group of teenage youths who live within the same British town. They are all close friends, and spend a lot of time together. However, one of the friends is suddenly found dead in her bed; she has been bludgened and ripped to death in a very brutal manner. Soon after, the friends discover they have been having very similar and disturbing nightmares, but they are all slighlty different, tailoring to their each individual fears. After this the friends start being killed off one by one by their nightmares, and they must find some way to stop it.

I am not sure how many there will be within the group of friends, but it will not very many. This is because I only want reliable people to be our actors, and I doubt many of my friends would be able to turn up to all the shoots and meetings.

Mindmap of ideas




This is a mindmap of ideas that me and my group created. It goes hand -in - hand with the mood board in expressing the feelings and ideas that we want our film to incorporate. It looks into the difficulties and challenges we may face, as well as the themes, influences and rough ideas on how we want the film/trailer to be shot.
