Brainstorm of Titles For Our Opening Sequence
We didnt think of a title until after the clip, so that it was easier analyse the clip and then think of a title that related to it Here is a brainstorm of titles we thought up that related to the opening sequence.
We finally went with the film title 'Paranoia'. This is because we thought it related most to the film idea due to the fact that the character Shanice, acts in a extremely paranoid and psychotic manner after she recieves a mysterious phonecall.
We aslo added an effect to the title when it was displayed on the screen at the end by placing a primary recording over the text being whispered.

Story Board
This is the original Story Board hand drawn..
This is more of the beginning of our Opening Sequence because the interview is what sets everything up and as an interview we had to ensure that we would still experiment and use a range of camera shots and angles as everything presented in an interview is very static between a person being intervied and the interviewer (teacher). We had to ensure that the shot reverse shots between these two were not all the same and boring so the storyboard helped remind us of using different camera angles/shots with what speech and what character and if there was any sound effects that were to be used.

Filming & Editing Schedule
December 2009
8th – On this day, we planned our opening sequence by creating the brief storyline.
11th – We came up with different ideas which may fit in better with the concept of a physiological thriller. We also
had to consider the resources we had available to do this.
16th – Our group took photos of each other to use for our profile pictures. We also took photos of certain surrounding which we were planning to use in the opening sequence.
January 2010
4th - The start of the filming, which all of us were included in. The setting of this scene was in a classroom. This was filmed after school, in order to use effective low key lighting.
15th- Our group stayed back after school to re-film and continue on with the scene that we had previously begun.
18th We continued to film the exiting of the classroom and we also managed to film the beginning of the aftermath from leaving the classroom. This included filming handheld shots. All of this filming was carried out after school.
19th - We carried on filming clips of the classroom but from different angles including from outside of the classroom.
21st - On this day, we uploaded all the footage we had. We looked over areas of improvement.
26th - Our group stayed behind after school to film the handheld scene which consisted of our entire group. This was a key scene in the storyline of the film. This scene was continuously filmed to make it perfect.
29th - On the 29th and the 3rd two members of our group worked in lesson to keep our blogs up to date. The other half of our group progressed in editing (rearranging clips, adding transitions and deleting clips that were not needed).
February 2010
3rd - We filmed over bits that were not as effective as they could be. For instance we went over bits from the classroom, in the form of a variety of different angles.
5th - Our group carried out research in lesson to find appropriate background music for certain clips in our opening sequence. We eventually managed to find one which we used.
10th - As well as continuously updating the blog, we also stayed behind after school to re film the handheld scene and the scene of Shanice going crazy in the classroom, this time using lighting.
17th - We recorded all the backing audio that we had to use (voice over’s).
18th - We filmed the interview scene which we had to arrange with teachers. We then uploaded the footage.
19th - We filmed the leading up to the interview waiting to be interview – set at the seating area).
March 2010
2nd - Our group arranged another date in the office to re film the interview. We had to improve on certain errors which we had made before, in terms of more camera angles as well as more shot reverse shot between the teacher and the student. We then edited after school as well as in lesson.
8th - On this day as well as the 12th and the 22nd, we uploaded the remaining footage and we then edited this order to create a smoother flow from clip to clip.

Music
We legally downloaded an instrumental from youtube. It was a small clip of a piano that sounded slightly scary but not too much. We chose it because it was music that could play in the backgrounds of our scenes. It wasn't the type music to draw the audience away from what was really going on.
Here is the clip we downloaded
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETJ5cdDBoaE
The clip can also be found on our profile in "audio".
Another bit of audio that we had used in our Opening Sequence is the voice over at the end of "Paranoia". We recorded this using one of the girls voice (Natalia) by recording them say it on the mac computer on iMovie HD. This was simple as you could record straight onto the programme and the poject that was open. So we recorded a few versions and edited and chose one to use. The purpose of this is that the text not only looked to plain but the way that it was said was in a whisper almost and as for an opening sequence the movie would then carry on from this clip/scene in our Opening Sequence.

Props
The only prop used was the mobile phone. This was used at the scene where Shenice would go back to the classroom as this what she forgot.
This was an important prop because this is what caused the drama in the first place. We knew that this is what will make audiences wonder what was it about the phone call that caused Shenice to react. This is apart of the whole mystery and the trigger to her astranged behaviour.
