One shot movie.
This was my first design practice out of the three. It began with a tutorial into one shot movies and introduction. We watched a series of one shot movies and discussed the approaches and narratives of the movies that different directors took in creating them. All the movies had their own story to tell and a meaning full purpose behind it.
I found the most popular and original movies to be mainly adverts and commercials.

Over a period of three seminars, we produced the one shot movie as a group. We did this in the four specific phases of the design process. It started with the discovering. This involved Sitting down as a group mind mapping ideas and generally just talking between each other inspiring ideas. After this we began researching the past and present one shot movie narratives. This lead to understand and picking what audience we would appeal to tailoring our one shot movie to fit the correct criteria. Once having an idea on paper we began developing selecting ideas and creating one. We had a range of different genre and types for the movies narrative. We decide that the most appropriate and affective would be to film the movie as a point of view, in the genre of horror. We developed the script making different variations to film and then pick the best take for the final product. We choose the daunting task of filming the thrilling one shot movie at the Galleries of Justice setting it as a court trail. This gave us one chance to refine the film so we took as many takes on the set as we could on the day of filming as we only had a specific amount of time due to the fact it was a tourist attraction and the museum would be open to the public. Next we began defining. This involved refining the moving by capturing the best take and editing it to smooth it out and make the sound work better. We intend to add sound effects, such as footsteps at the beginning, and muffle parts of the audio to make the audience feel as if they are the character. Other further developments we intend to add will be opening titles and credits at the end to give the movie the finishing touches. The final process was delivering the finished product and to post the final video on You tube. This process involved completion. After completing filming we captured the product and edited the final clip. I believe the movie has a different impact on different viewers. Given them entertainment, whilst at the same time telling them a story through the eyes of a criminal.

We have not yet finished the movie and still have too edited and manipulate the sound and add the finishing touches with the credits to bring the movie together. Hopefully it will look good when all done.

I did extra work towards the product such as a written risk assessment, script/ screenplay, plan and authorisation form for filming at the galleries of justice (the location of the one shot film). Overall I believe this task was fun and enjoyable can’t wait to try the other two design practices.
