Shooting schedule

This is our shooting schedule for our entire film; Devine Mercy. We did it in 4 parts, generally in chronological order of the script but the final day we filmed the flashbacks.

AMILCAR AND SEAN

Cast

Mark Sead- Mark Ahmed (Main character); We chose him because his ethnic background (Arabic) fits stereotypical views of a terrorist.

Stepan Bagdasarian- Mustufa  Ahmed; We not only chose him because of his ethnic background but his big build portrays him as a bully, which is perfect for his role.

Exras:
Amilcar Johnson
Sean Fox
Frankie Corbett
Anthony Mcshay

Amilcar and Sean Storyboard

Intro Music

This is the music that we are going to use for our intro.

Locatins

1) This is where the protagonists lives.

2) This is the street outside of where the antagonist lives and is where his journey to so complete his mission will begin.

3) This is the street leading to the station, the antagonist will walk up this road towards the station.

4) This is the train station where the antagonist will go to so that he can set off his explosive device

Commentary: We chose these locations for various reasons and for practical uses. 

1) Firstly we chose this place because of convenience as Amilcar lives there and it is close to the train station which is a key scene in our film.

2) This stretch of road is very quiet, this makes it ideal for filming and the road is very long which allows us to maximise our recording availability.

3) Again we have chosen this location because of its practical uses e.g it is quiet, near Amilcar's house and it leads up to the station nicely. 

4)  Finally This is where the key scene is set, We have chosen this setting ideally because the station is quiet, it is easier to film than an underground station.

Research into Opening Sequences

“A title sequence is the method by which cinematic films or television programs present their title, key production and cast member, or both, utilizing conceptual visuals and sound. It usually follows but should not be confused with the opening credits, which are generally nothing more than a series of superimposed text”.

Film-makers at the beginning of the 21st century have many options open regarding title sequences. Some films superimpose opening credits over the opening scenes, while others elect to do away with titles entirely, instead including elaborate title sequences at the end of the movie.

Many films have used unusual and fairly elaborate title sequences since the 1930s. In the 1936 Show Boat little cut-out figures on a revolving turnable carried overhead banners on which were displayed the opening credits This opening sequence was designed by John Harkrider, who created the costumes for the original 1927 Broadway production of the musical.

In general, a television title sequence will at some point badge the show with a typographic logo. Around this key element can be incorporated shots of highlights from earlier episodes or shows and key presenters' or cast members' names. Musical accompaniment can be either instrumental or a song and aided by the visual treatment of the images helps to convey the tone and mood of the programme.
