Sound Designer

I will be undertaking the role of sound editor. I will be looking at many different films for inspiration, on how to edit this particular genre. The genre of our film will be fantasy, i looked at honey i shrunk the kids for inspiration on how we could present the protagonist when they have shrunk.



In this particular scene, we come across troubles you would face if you were really small, we can take ideas from this and relate them into our 4 minute film.

We will be using a green screen to film our protagonist, and then merging the image with other shots of different locations so we can 'shrink' our protagonist.
We will use final cut express, to blend the images together, creating the effect of one character being in a different location.

Nicola Perrett-Cinematographer

For this short film, I will be undertaking the role of the cinematographer. I will be researching and using various camera angles and shots to create an interesting effect for this film.

I will also be contributing towards the editing and sound.

Ideas

While coming up with our idea we thought of many different possibilities to take ideas from:

• Documentary on phobias-We thought a documentary style film could be interesting however we thought it would be hard to fit the documentary style into a 4 minute film and be successful with it
• Horror/thriller- This was a strong possibility for us as we thought this would be easy to be able to capture many emotional responses from the audience. We decided not to choose this genre because we felt that it could be a very obvious choice and we could take our imagination further
• Musical- We felt that this was a very unique as not many people have done this previously. However we decided that this idea was too difficult to complete with a high standard.
