Planning notes.

These are some of the ideas that we had when we first started to plan what we wanted to do, as you can  see we looked into a lot of different genres so that we were able to see what genre we would best be able to recreate.  

This is an example of a film that had been filmed solely by a hand held camera, we looked at this as an example for what we had planned to do. It appears to be very similar to the plot that we had come up with and so we was a very useful way of seeing another product do this so we were able to see what the final outcome would be like. The main difference between this film and the opening that we are going to create is that it is more focused on the creature where as we will base the film on the events that unfold for the characters are going to lead due to the situation that they have been put in.    

Film plot
The basic of our film is about a creature that is chasing the three teenage girls, our characters. At the start of the film they are being chased as they have had a sighting of an unfamiliar creature, which is why they are seen to be running into the safety of a tunnel, or so they think. They soon find out that  they have run into the tunnel, they think they are safe from this creature but they soon found out that they are not safe at all and if anything they are now in more danger as they are trapped. The reason that the creature has come into the tunnel is because someone had left the door open and it has found the way in. They start to panic as the creature comes towards them, they scream and look as each other as they are extremely close to a creature that they have no idea about and what it is capable of, the looks on their faces show that they are scared.

The reason that they are all together and in a rural location is because they were all having a day out together, they were exploring the surroundings when the creature had discovered their whereabouts, and because of their location they are unable to get help which is why they had to run and find safety. This why the ended up in the tunnel as they thought they would be safe.  All of the characters are connected by their friendship, they are close but about to get even closer by the events that are about to take place and the situation they will be placed in.  

In the clip the audience are unaware of what the creature is and or what it is capable of doing, they have never seen anything like it before in real life and really shocks them. Once they are face to face with this creature they start to fear for their lives and the events start to unfold.

Feedback

We felt that it would be positive for us to be able to gain feedback from out target audience about whether they liked the idea for the film plot that we have created, this way we would be able to change anything that was strongly disliked therefore attracting the biggest audience possible.    

Most of the feedback that we had was positive and the idea for the whole think to be shot using a hand-held camera was received very well. However one thing that we have changed since receiving the feedback is the characters, at first we had planned on having a mixture of boys and girl, but it showed that the audience would have much preferred to just focus on on one gender, we therefore have changed it so that we will have an all female cast.
