location filming police liason

I phoned the police station in Leamington, to ask if we could use a toy gun in our film trailer. They needed the time, place and how many of us there would be and they gave us an incident number for if we had any questions, the incident number was 215 16/11/10.

Final Locations

George Ready's House

This is where Steon lives. We will shoot the scenes of Steon and his girlfriend, Steon getting the gun, and scenes of Steon walking out into his car. We chose this location because it was in a suitable area and was close to Monskpath park which is the second location we used for our filming. His house also had good features that we could use for our filming.

Monkspath park
This is where the drug swap between Boss and Steon happens, as well as the deal between Steon and another character. This is also where Steon gets mugged. We chose this location as it had a good alleyway that was appropriate for the drug deal, and also when it had got darker was a good setting to use for the mugging. It was quite and closed off so we weren't disturbing any of the public either.

Possible Locations for Trailer

Because we have chosen Social realist Drama as our genre we need to shot around built up areas to follow these conventions. Below are the main locations and some possible locations for our trailer:


Location One: 48 Warwick Street, Leamington Spa
We will be shooting the last scene of the teaser in an alleyway next to 'Hobdays Pet Shop' down this road because it is a prime location for shooting. The alleyway creates the perfect atmosphere for a drug swap because it is in the centre of the town but looks dodgy because the connotation of two people swapping packages in a small alleyway or corner of a road creates the impression that they are trying to hide something which in this case is the drugs. The old pet shop also makes it look out of date and the high street fits in with the locations used in similar youth culture films.


Location Two: Shottery park
This is our back up for 'location one', we can easily access the alley leading to the park which would also be ideal for the meeting and swapping of packages. We could also use this as a possible location for other filming because with the graffiti on the walls could add effect to our film, chase scenes if we choose to use them would also work well in this location.


Location Three: Bishops Ichington
This is were we will be filming the car scene and the shot of inside the empty house. We will be using a different location and front of house for the outside shot because the we need a more built up area to fit in with our storyline and to keep in with the connotation of the character being portrayed.

Selected Magazine Font

As a group we decided on using an urban type font. The connotations of graffiti are prominent within youth culture so it will help to attract our target audience. The magazine is aimed at a wide audience,however by using the same font we create a branding for our film that is recognizable, as well as the typography the imagery, and content has to be similar.

selected title font

After studying other films fonts, we selected this because it seems to be similar to those in profesional productions within our genre. The font is distorted which gives the film a look which says its different, the rugged nature also hints at rebellion hopefully attracting the teenage audience that the film is aimed at.

Film Title Fonts

These are what we have decided to compare for our fonts for our poster, and to represent the film. They are all taken from www.dafont.com.

Magazine font test

As a group we decided on "Follow-Up" as the title for our magazine, and tried to create it as a review magazine offering information about the latest film releases. Therefore we conducted a series of font tests to see which best represents our film whilst being an attraction to our target audience.

Shooting Schedule For Photography

As a group we decided that we needed to get a variety of photographs to choose from for our final project. we decide to host one of the shoots in the studio and the other on location to give us an option to use what was necessary. i intend to use a similar layout to what was used in the 1Day poster for the magazine, and use a similar layout to 4.3.2.1 for the poster. We will need to book the studio out and work around when our actors are available to do both shoots.

Studio Shoot: 16th December
Location Shoot: 22nd December

Replica Gun

This gun will be used by Steon as he is holding it in his hand in one of the scenes and then hides it in his jeans when he his going to pick up the drugs that Boss has hidden away for him. this is to show that he carries a weapon on him showing what type of character he is.
Using this gun could cause a problem as we will be using this outside. The gun will only be shown for 5 seconds but we may have to contact the local police and let them know that we will be filming and the gun will be involved so that if any calls are made they know that everything is safe.

Grey Corsa


This is the car that Steon drives. It isn't in the scenes that often but will be used in the car chase scene and also the scene of Steon walking out of his house into his car and reversing off the drive.

Bag

This bag is what Boss uses to cary the drugs for Steon in. He hides this behind a wall in an alleyway, which is when Steon comes to pick it up.

Fake Drugs

We will make these with cling film and flour. These are the drugs that Boss gives to Steon and Steon sells off to another person. We won't need to contact the police for these as tehse will only be seen inside so there is no shot of them outside the house.

Money

Money is used when Steon sells the drugs to someone else.


All of these are our own possesions and won't need to go out and purchase any of these items.

Location Recce

This is where Steon deals his drugs to the mugger

This is where the muggers come and take Steon's bag and money

This is where Boss and Steon would do the drug swap in Boss' car
