Media film idea

this is an idea i came up with that i thought i could design my film on for media
Due to all the riots going on in England the government has had research done to improve teen’s behaviour through biological treatments. Their research has lead them to create a drug tablet that calms down the youths and improves their behaviour. The tablets are disputed through school cafes to the students, the results are conclusive that the youth’s behaviour has improved substantially. Unexpected results occur in some cases causing the subjects behaviour to decrease rapidly and cause violent outbursts. The number of cases starts to rise. Riots start to appear all over England becoming more violent every day. Within 7 days most of England has become a ghost town and only a few people now have survived, most of which are subjects of the tablet.
It is said that God create humanity. Now Humanity has undone Gods work

Film intro example 2

Zombieland

the intro of Zombieland starts with a camera shot using a hand held camera to give you a sense of being in the film. it has a voice over describing what has happen so far. the intro credits uses scenes of zombie attacks in ever day situations to add a sense of humor.
i plan to use the voice over and the hand held camera shot in my film

Film intro example 1

Shaun of the dead

the beginning of shaun of the dead introduces the main characters straight away using close up shots, it alsos tells you how they are connected to each other. the film starts at the present before the zombie event has started. the intro credits are shots of every day jobs and life being done in a dull way to add a sense of humor that people are acting as life-less being before the zombies actually arrive.
using this film intro i will use the idea of adding a sense of humor at the start of my film

shot example's

these are just a few shot examples i will be using in my preliminary task for media
within the first two it includes the 180 degree rule and the last shot is a birds eye view of the players around the table


equipment and props

for my preliminary task i won't be needing that much equipment and props

Clothing: as the scene is of a poker game then the clothes should be smart or casual
i will use my poker set i was given as a gift to use as a prop in the scene : cards
                                                                                                            . chips

Mr Gallop has kindly given me one of the media cameras to record my preliminary task so i will be ready to upload onto Imovies

Cast

my cast will consist of a few people i play poker with
James - dealer
Laura - player 1
Max - player 2
Jame - player 3
Dan - player 4

preliminary Task

l have to make a short film and add in the 180 degree rule. I have named my clip 'Poker' as this consists of a real life poker game i will film of my mates playing a game on one of my poker nights, in this short piece i am adding in the 180 degree rule. 

This is the 180% rule which we have include in our preliminary task,The 180° rule is a basic film editing guideline that states that two characters (or other elements) in the same scene should always have the same left/right relationship to each other. If the camera passes over the imaginary axis connecting the two subjects, it is called crossing the line. The new shot, from the opposite side, is known as a reverse angle.

Imovie

Mr Gallop arranged for a guest to come in, to teach us how to use Imovie.
he was called james and he helped us to learn what we can do using our short 180 degree clip using Imovie,
we learned how to add special effects to our clip such as changing the shot from normal to an olden colour, or into a cartoon etc...
he taught us how to add sound effects to the clip
how to add text to the clip
after we learned how to use Imovies properly he taught us how we can put our finished clip onto the internet on such sighs like youtube, and he also taught us how to burn the clip onto a blank DVD
