film itself.

This is my final film.

synopsis of my film.

New York and the sun is shining, sunshine in Tokyo and patchy rain in Britain. News reports from all over the world come in with the same news,
The sun is expanding. Not a shopper nor a worker batters an eye until boom. Earths surface faces over a 500 000 degree sheet of molten rock and gas whilst the innocent race of mankind fights to survive or is it to late.

cast list prop lists and location list.

cast and crew.



Jack Hignett plays the psykick at the start of my sequence.

Denise Waller plays the driver who reflects a general audience.

James Cogging James Walker and Steven Mars play the three people who are praying.



Jack Waller the director and cinematographer.



locations list.

i wanted to use a range of places to film to reflect how the ending of the earth would affect more then jsut one region or person.



originally i planned to use these areas.



town central church.

local streets of hull.

the countryside/ a hill.

a bedroom with either a couple or family.

also the river humber.



these locations was perfrect for shooting however with bad weather and restrictions on time some locations was left out.

final ideas linking to synopsis and liiar.....................

from this and the story line i gathered almost all i need to know to structure my film hovever i now need to develop my story boards and synopsis.

storyboard........................
unfortunately due to errors on the software my story board animation was deleted and so i cant present this.

in oder to do the correct research and planning i have to use the idea of LIIAR which helps me determine the language, institution,ideologies,audience and representation of which my film should show.



Language.



as my film is based on the last minutes of the human race i want my film to show the different variations of general language that there is throughout the world. not only informal but slang and humour as well. The idea behind the film means i have to show different points of view from different charcters as this is a problem facing the world.



Institution.



if my film was made professionally the i would use the paramount pictures distribution company.

this is because they have distributed many films similar to mine for example deep impact was one film that was distributed by this company. deep impact is a film with similar style s and genre as my film. my film would also use soundtracks from artists like john murphy and richard schiff who have developed tracks that are fitting for films like mine.



Ideologies.



the film would contain the normal dominant idelogies of the is era however i would try to show how these would change to the circumstances within the film. the doinant ideology within the film is based around the idea of earth slowly being swallowed by the sun and so all normal conventions of life would change.

audience.

my target audience is unisex and aged 12 onwards. the film isnt targeting the higher classes of society but the lower end as the film is based around a scientists theory however is all fiction.
the film will be easy to watch and so maybe wouldnt attract such large audiences from the higher classes. for this reason my characters will be developed with ideologies from these classes of people.

representation.

i intend to create a film that projects a view on how the world would act in a scenrio such as my film however capturing the emothions and feelings of those in normal society as opppose to thoese with the challenges of dealing with it. this then represents the lower classes to middle class of people from students to the homeless represnting them within characters and showing the audience how them themselves may react.

research info.

looking at the previous infomation i have reaserched about the genres i have been able to gether a story as well as much of my chosen genre tends to have only one story.



i decided upon the earth being consumed by the sun howver to show the perspective of the people and their feelings not the big budget effects.



not only do i want this kind od story and genre but i would also like my film to presented over a mixture of ages as this is a global issue and as much as i know there is no budget for me to travel to different countries i can still have a vary of appearence and age through my sequence and so for this i have chosen actors specifically.

due to this i decide to use the structure of liiar to work out the language institution ideology audience and representation of my film.



theres Jack Hignet who is 19 and plays the narrator at the start of the sequnce.

Densise Waller who plays the female driving home from work.

James walker James Cogin and Steven Mars who are praying.

Adam Thompson and Joanne Day as the loving couple.

deep impact.

At the start of this sequence there is use of a close up of the meteor to establish how dominant and powerfull the item is within the film. aslo the speed and size is highlighted by showing earth move slowly were as the meteor moves at speed.
there is also use of a tracking shot capturing two of the main characters with the meteor heading over them. i belive this represents how the two characters are part of the surviving age post the meteor and also showing three main elements to the film.
thgere is a use of a long shot aswell which shows the masses of people stuck on the motorway and uses a series of close ups to capture the ractions from people there. the shot is also cleverly framed as there is very little gap between the cars and people to the outside of the frame which is used to show the masses of poeple and and how little a part in the world that is in terms of size.
the seqence highlights the emotions in which people could go through in a time of desperate need capturing characters waiting to die and those fighting to survive also there is use of a seiries of long shots from different parts of the world showing how this is a world wide problem.
many shots include buldings being destroyed and one is key to this which is the liberty statue being destroyed by the tidal wave. i belive this is to represent america as a hole being smashhed ny this giant wave and slowly losing control of what they can do.
these shots are usually long shots creating the sense of power and size behind the waves and meteor also there is use of shaking the cameras to capture the panic that the people are going through and again the dominace of what is happening.

as part of the cinematography there is use of red skylines highighting the fears of death and how in such a time love is vital. also cities like new york are filmed in grey dark sjies showing how the city is going to fall with the tidal wave and how also this tidal wave is going to kill people.

the sequence itself is very similar to how i wish my film to be viewed and so will be good research for my film.
