This took a little longer than anticipated but it is all done now and I am happy with what I have created. I think that it sums up the processes of research, planning, filming, editing and evaluating well:-)

Final Changes to the Soundtrack
Today we watched our film a final time for a self-assessment before burning it to a disc.
Everything looked how we wanted it to but the soundtrack was not quite to plan, and the voice over hadn't worked effectively. We therefore tried to record multiple people saying 'sorry' and various other condolences in the hospital scene. However, Final Cut Express did not seem to work properly doing what we wanted it to and the program wouldn't let us overlap the sounds so the recordings sounded poor and uneffective. Henceforth, we decided to delete all of the voice over and just re-record the soundtrack, slower and with no lyrics.

Task Checklist
We were all given a checklist to ensure that we had completed all tasks necessary for our planning and final product. Here is my checklist:
Wednesday, February 29, 2012
Further research into the name of our female protagonist.
2)
In reading my previous annotations and explorations, this is rather self explanatory. It reflects the ideas of premature and undeserved death which is also something shown in our opening sequence.
3)
Again, this doesn't need much explanation; it reflects three of the main characteristics that we want Lily to show- innocence, purity and beauty.
The Name of our Female Protagonist
We decided to call the female protagonist in our opening sequence Lily, this is because of different connotations and meanings of the name and the imagery associated with it.
We liked the fact that there were a number of Lilies each with their own meanings and connotations; this reminded us of our character Lily as she has many contrasting characteristics herself.
We already knew that Lily had multiple connotations that were relevant to the protagonist in our storyline.
However, this afternoon in our lesson, both Brogan and Tiffany were absent and the computer with all of our work on was not working. Therefore, I decided to do some further research into the name Lily to ensure that it was the correct name for our protagonist.
It turned out that the name was perfect! Below are a number of things that I found and annotated during the process of exploring the name.
1)
-This Lily also was used as a wedding flower (reflecting the love felt between the young couple in our story) and also a connotation of death (reflecting her losses).
-I also found that historically it was thought that Lilies spontaneously appeared on the graves of those who were executed for crimes which they did not commit. I thought that this reflected the way in which the male's death was undeserved.
-Dreaming of Lilies at different times of year can also signify different things. "Dreaming of lilies in spring signifies marriage, happiness and prosperity"; I thought that this reflected the fact that the spring of their relationship (the beginning) was extremely loving, happy and idealistic. "Dreaming of lilies in winter signifies frustration of hopes and the premature death of a loved one"; this contrasted with the spring and reflected the winter of their relationship (the death of the male), and again emphasised that his death was premature.
-The medieval connotation of feminine sexuality also appeared relevant but I wasn't 100% certain on what was meant by this; so I looked up the meaning of 'feminine sexuality' itself. I found the below. I thought that this was also relevant because of their age and the fact that teenagers are at the stage where they are exploring sexuality.

Changes: Soundtrack
Soundtrack
We decided to use 'The End Where I Begin' by The Script as our soundtrack because it related to the topic and main idea of our film and also once again reflected the cyclical theme. It is a well known song and therefore even hearing the acoustic version people would associate what they see with the song title which we felt was relevant. It also was a gentle song which changed in pace and tone throughout which, we thought, reflected her emotions and also helped to set a mood for our film. However, as the music in our opening sequence was unable to be copyright, we found that we could not use the original version of the song. Therefore, we asked a friend of ours (who is conveniently very interested in the soundtracks of films) to play an instrumental version of the song on the piano, changing a few notes here and there so it wasn't the same as the original so that we were able to use it in our production.

Changes: Flashback
Flashback
Having a flashback in our opening sequence meant that we could include a section of montage editing. To make it apparent to the audience it was a flashback we decided to add an effect in order to make it clear and understandable. We found it difficult to choose the most appropriate one as we felt that each effect we tried gave a different message. There are a lot of effects to choose from on Final Cut Express (and also rendering the clips takes a while) therefore, after a substantial period of time, we added an echo effect that made the shots echo themselves creating a blur. Watching it back, we think that this effect works well and in asking another audience, feedback shows that they could tell that it was a flashback, meaning that we had succeeded in making it clear enough for them to understand.

Changes: Voice Over Transition
Voice Over
We decided the transition between the locations and the hospital scene weren't clear enough for the audience as they were unsure of which character had died, be it the female or male. Although this would become clear later in the story, we decided that we wanted our opening sequence to be as clear as possible in order to capture the attention of as many people as possible. Therefore, we decided to try and include a voice over of a nurse or family member telling the protagonist (Lily) of the unfortunate loss of her boyfriend in the car crash.

Changes: Crash
Crash
This is a link containing the section of Raise Your Voice that gave us the most influential ideas. Particularly the section from 1min20 onwards.
1min35 onwards also shows the crash scene that inspired us.
This montage also shows all the individual clips from 'Raise Your Voice' that inspired the crash idea for our opening sequence.
From the very beginning our storyline was based around the ideas and impacts of a car crash. We felt that because this was one of the main events that took place in our film that it should appear in our opening to help engage the audience. When researching different films and looking at clips and scenes for inspiration and ideas we came across
Raise Your Voice, which is where our most protuberant ideas came from for the crash. However, as it is not a particularly well-known film there is not many YouTube videos for it, and none that show the section of the film as it is in the actual film, but rather are montages that people have made using clips of the film.

Changes: Circles
Circle Theme
When researching our initial film idea we had a lot of varied ideas each of which we liked equally but we didn't know how to unite them into one storyline; therefore we had the idea to tie all of the different ideas that we had brainstormed together by using a theme that would run throughout the opening sequence. We decided that this theme could be circles as it reflected the idea of the continuity and cyclical events of our storyline. When we presented our pitch, the initial feedback from our classmates showed that they didn't fully understand the importance or significance of the circles. Once we explained further, they became more interested and thought the idea was perhaps better than first expected. Hearing this, we decided to either make the idea more apparent to the audience or remove the idea completely. We tried to make the idea more apparent but with our new footage it wasn't as easy as we first thought. We did however include the idea into a few of our shots like the carousel ones or the ones where you see a point of view from the female protagonist spinning around to continue with the ideas of cyclical events and confusion.
Changes: Isolation
Isolation
When we presented our pitch to the class, we discussed the idea of singling out the female protagonist from a crowd making her appear more isolated and individual. They really liked our timelapse and felt that this was a particularly effective section of filming and editing, as it not only successfully singled out our protagonist as an isolated character in our story, but also showed our media skills well. However, the use of drugs soon seemed less than original and therefore lost it's effectiveness to us as a group and we decided to remove it from our opening sequence.

We watched the opening scene of Collateral and we liked how the two males were singled out in a crowd, we therefore used this scene to develop our idea and make it more apparent.

Changes: Drugs
Drugs
We had originally planned to incorporate drug-use into our opening sequence but after seeing the rest of the pitches from the people in our class, we realised that almost every single group had decided to use the idea of drugs in their opening sequence. In seeing this, as a group, we therefore decided against the idea as we wanted our film to be original and not too similar to anyone else's. Also, we wanted our sequence to look as effective and realistic as possible and therefore the fact that drugs are quite a difficult thing to create the effect of, this too made the idea seem less effective.

Shooting Scripts
As we were required to re-do our storyboards, we also needed to create new shooting-scripts. Here they are:
Wednesday, February 22, 2012
New Storyboards
We showed a rough cut of our opening sequence to the class and handed out audience feedback sheets for them to fill in. They gave us both positive and constructive feedback and therefore, we needed to make a number of changes. We tried making changes to our original storyboard but it wasn't as effective, hence we have almost completely changed our storyline and ideas.
Here is our new storyboard:

The Name of the Film
We decided that the main idea in the film would be cyclical and keep happening to the same girl, suggesting she is the one perhaps causing or creating the incidents that happen.
As we decided it was a car crash and the male would die, this means the female would be left alone and would most probably end up mourning over the death of her boyfriend. Referring back to the cyclical idea means that she would be mourning more than once.
We therefore decided to use a play on words and call the film 'The Mourning After'.

New Storyline
As there have been changes to our ideas and filming locations we have been required to simplify and adapt our old storyline and essentially create a new storyline. We are also required to plot the basic storyline for the rest of the film. So, here they are..
Opening Sequence:
Our new story begins with a young couple in a car. The couple are talking and consistently turn to look at each other, through the windscreen we then see a car coming towards them from the opposite direction. The car gets closer and closer until we all can see are the headlights. The lights are becoming so big that that it fades to a white screen, together with the sound effects the audience know that there has been a crash. The white screen fades into a hospital scene, where we see the protagonist gaining consciousness, at the same time we see the female being pushed down a long corridor on a bed. She then closes her eyes and the scene fades to a blackout implying the idea that perhaps the female has simply fallen asleep or perhaps has fainted or even slipped into a coma. We then begin a section of montage editing, where we see the female looking through photographs of the past times that her and her lost love spent together and we see many flashbacks provoking her emotions to spiral which is reflected in the angles and effects in some of the flashbacks. She sees the times when perhaps when she was more happy, spending quality time with her partner who sadly passed away.
Main Storyline:
After the opening sequence, we see the investigation of the crash but the approaching car drove away and all they know about it was that it was red. The film will follow Lily's emotional journey and life will appear to get better and better as time goes by and the memories fade. Throughout the film strange things keep happening to her whilst in the presence of men or boys. Lily also becomes extremely wary of being in cars as it brings back memories of the tragedy of her boyfriend's death and will only go in a car in the day time. The period of mourning passes and as if by unusual coincidence there is a repeat of the crash with a red car but with Lily's best friend and her lover. Nobody thinks of it as anything but a coincidence and it is treated as a separate matter. Lily then becomes obsessed with the matter and aggravated by the lack of official response; she therefore decides to take matters in to her own hands and find the red car and its owner. The rest of the story then follows Lily in her journey of horrific discoveries alone. Unfortunately, due to a number of false paths and clues she has led them down even her closest friends and family think that she is simply delusional or damaged from the initial crash..

Audience Feedback and Changes
We created a rough cut of our opening sequence and asked our class to think of pros and cons as they watched our first cut. We then asked for verbal feedback once we had shown our cut a few times over.
Our audience liked our initial ideas but felt that some of our shots seemed too random and didn't fit as well as others with our sequence; rather creating unnecessary confusion and drawing the viewer's attention from the storyline.
Therefore, we made changes to the following themes and ideas:

"The End Where I Begin"
Sometimes tears say all there is to say
Sometimes your first scars won't ever fade away
Tried to break my heart
Well it's broke
Tried to hang me high
Well I'm choked
Wanted rain on me
Well I'm soaked
Soaked to the skin
It's the end where I begin
It's the end where I begin
Sometimes we don't learn from our mistakes
Sometimes we've no choice but to walk away, away
Tried to break my heart
Well it's broke
Tried to hang me high
Well I'm choked
Wanted rain on me
Well I'm soaked
Soaked to the skin
It's the end where I begin
It's the end where I begin
Now I'm alive
and my ghosts are gone
I've shed all the pain
I've been holding on
The cure for a heart
Is to move along, is to move along
So move along
[X3]
What don't kill a heart
Only makes it strong
It's the End where I
End where I
End where I begin
Sometimes we don't learn from our mistakes
Sometimes we've no choice but to walk away, away
Sometimes your first scars won't ever fade away

So, what song?
Once we had decided to use a popular song as our soundtrack rather than simply backing music, http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=3840062290283247416#editor/target=post;postID=3311631010801298922, we had to decide on the perfect song.
First, we decided to use an alternative indie genre of music because of the general lyric-types being quite solemn and negative. But, the band/artist needed to be popular in order for the lyrical connotations to follow when we remove the lyrics.
Therefore, we decided to use a song by either
Coldplay
The Fray
or
The Script
After much discussion, listening to many many songs, and more classroom research, we decided upon 'The End Where I Begin' by The Script.

Thriller Research
I have found using presentations like these ones from www.slideshare.net very useful in my research.

Soundtrack Research
So, how do I go about choosing the soundtrack for our Thriller opening sequence?
_ "Music is a powerful tool in filmmaking."
_ "choosing the right mood is an art in itself."
We have discussed the type of soundtrack that we are going to use time and time again but could, but, due to our ideas involving both positivity and negatively almost simultaneously, we could not find an appropriate soundtrack. Then, we saw this quote:
_ "Professional film directors work directly with composers to produce music & sound design that integrates perfectly with the imagery on the screen. They will often choose published songs to connect with the audience adding emphasis to certain scenes."
and it gave us an idea to use a popular song with lyrical connotations, but then to take away the lyrics. This would remove the lyrics as a distraction but the audience would still make mental links with the action and the songs' lyrics.

Thriller Research
Thrillers! from ZainabMorafa
'Titling'
We are planning on conforming to all of the conventions mentioned on slide 2; using non-diegetic music, and using a main event before the titles begin to show.
'Camera movement'
Although we are not going to use Tracking or Pan shots, we will use effects and motions to make it clear that the protagonist is moving, although we do not actually see it happening.
'Framing'
We will be meeting conventions extremely strongly as we plan to use a lot of close-ups and extreme-close-ups. However, due to the intimacy of our film we do not think we will use long-shots.
'Camera Angles'
As a very strong convention, we will be likely to be incorporating both high and low angle shots into our product.
'Editing'
We will be using a lot of cross-cutting and jump-cuts, but also including montage editing to create confusion and enigma for the audience, but also to link a large variety of locations and shot-types together.
'Sound'
As stated in this presentation, using dialogue helps to give an insight into the characters lives, therefore by opposing this convention we hope to create a further sense of enigma. Nonetheless, we will be using non-diegetic music which is a strong convention of Thriller films.

Thriller Film Conventions
In researching thrillers, I came accross these presentation, on www.slideshare.net, which contained many famous films of the genre, and their main conventions, allowing me to compare, and apply many of the ideas we have already had with aspects of real Thriller films.
Film Screenshots - Conventions Of A Thriller from Sophie Drewery
Many of the conventions found in these presentations we like and are considering using in our own product. Include the victimised female protagonist, a convention also used in 'Scream' , 'The Birds' and 'Psycho'.
'Jaws' uses recognisable theme music in order to create familiarity with the audience and help to build the tension. We liked this idea, so have decided to use a popular Coldplay song as the soundtrack to our opening sequence to not only draw the audience in but also to create a link with the songs lyrics and the storyline. http://maisieheskethmedia-main.blogspot.co.uk/2012/02/soundtrack.html
We also thought that it was effective surrounding and isolating the victims, making them vulnerable, like in 'Jaws' and 'Scream'.
Using low angle and high angle shots- like 'The Silence of the Lambs', 'Die Hard', 'Sin City'- was also a technique we found was effective in portraying both power and vulnerability.
Nonetheless, although we are planning to stick to many of these conventions, we will also be breaking conventions like 'The Silence of the Lambs'.

Storyline
Our opening sequence begins with a young couple walking down a road towards the boy's car, we see them getting into the car, which is white, having colour connotations of innocence. Once inside the car, the couple are happy and are about to begin their journey home from their day out. The radio is turned on and a popular christmas song comes on which the couple clearly both love- as they are looking at each other, we see a car coming towards them from the opposite direction. The car gets closer and closer until we all can see are the headlights. The lights are becoming so big that that it fades to a white screen, together with the sound effects the audience know that there has been a crash. The white screen fades into a hospital scene, where we see the protagonist gaining consciousness, at the same time we see the female being pushed down a long corridor on a bed. She then closes her eyes and the scene fades to a blackout implying the idea that perhaps the female has simply fallen asleep or perhaps has fainted or even slipped into a coma. We then begin a section of montage editing, where we see the female have many flashbacks provoking her emotions to spiral. She sees the times when perhaps when she was more happy, spending quality time with her partner who sadly passed away.
Were we to create the rest of the film, it would simply begin by following the female protagonist's every day life, as it had returned to a state of equilibrium. However, every time that christmas came around, and the song from the crash was heard something terrible would happen. As the film went on, it would become clearer and clearer that what was happening was not such a horrible coincidence as was at first thought, but rather the devastating plan of an evil antagonist.
