Update Downloading

At this point in our process, the planning for the film opening is leading closer and closer to filming. Only a few parts remain in our preparation and soon we will be able to start filming. Ryan, a member of my group, created the script for the opening, which lays out the events of the opening and how to dialogue should sound. The script is a big part of this process and now gives us a physical outline of our opening and establishes a bit of the tone we are going for. Of course, the script is still up for revision and will most likely be changed during filming process.

Now that Ryan has created the script, I was able to get a better idea of how some of the scenes would play out. With this help, I was now able to get started on the storyboard to give the group a good visual aid for the filming process. Although I planned to finish it yesterday, I found it to be much harder than I thought, and changing opinions on certain scenes in the opening interfered with the process. The storyboard is still a work in progress, but since we still are a little but away from filming, it is better to do it right than to rush it.

As we get closer to filming, we are beginning to think about what we may need to buy for the set and costumes. Although we planned to go thrift shopping today, we ended up postponing it for sometime during next week. Thrift shopping will allow us to find some vintage looking clothes that will fit in with the 80s time period in the film. Set design also plays a large role in the opening and we will need to order some supplies. Most importantly, we have to order large bed sheets to act as the background for our interview set and also the print out of the poster of the movie that the main character will be promoting in the film.
