Pitches to consider!

Our pitch

Today is February 2nd and my group has come up with our pitches. Me and my group members have been coming up with pitches ever since the final task came to our attention. We have been researching how to make good workable pitches. We have come up with two pitches that we think would be the best to use.
The first pitch is "A man is taking his daily walk through the park, what he doesn't know is that his enemy is watching... waiting to seek revenge."
We feel like this would be an interesting pitch to make a film on this pitch because it shows the "enemy" as someone who has a relationship with the subject, or had a relationship. We feel that because of this it pre-lays foundation to the relationship and helps the viewers come to a conclusion where they question themselves. What did this man do for his enemy to seek revenge? Furthermore, the pitch is interesting to make a film upon because it leaves the audience to question what will happen to the man, will he die? Which gives our group a lot of versatility in that perspective. This is why this pitch is a great idea, and would be an interesting pitch to make a film on.
The second pitch is "He wakes up in a dark room, a man in the corner of his eye, the man attacks."
This short pitch is also very interesting one that we feel meets our interest in making a film revolving around it. For starters, this pitch leans more towards the horror/thriller genre in which is the focus of what we want our film to be about. Also, the pitch makes the enemy or antagonist seem insane, which we feel is perfect for our film and for our actors to really improve one being the most outgoing, the most frightening they can be. Rather than a calmer, easier character to act. Finally, we also feel that this pitch is an interesting one to make a film about because it leaves the audience on edge, with many question in their mind similar to the first pitch. Where is the man? How any why did he get there? This is why this pitch is one to consider for our group.
In the end, our group choose the first pitch, "A man is taking his daily walk through the park, what he doesn't know is that his enemy is watching... waiting to seek revenge.''
Ultimately we choose this pitch because it gives the group a lot more versatility, as far as more wiggle room to plan what our film will specifically be about. Furthermore, this pitch is perfect as far as setting and makes it easier to complete due to availability. This is why we choose the first pitch.

Convention Research (Death Wish)

 For the first movie that our group researches, we choose a thriller called "Death Wish". Here are some conventions that we found in the blog that we liked, did not like, and overall conventions that we should use in our film. Conventions that we liked: There was a lot of conventions used in this film that our group likes. To start, a lot of the angles used have underlining purposes. For example, the antagonist in this film are usually represented with low angles that shows them having power over another subject. To give the film a more modern feel, the costumes worn during the duration was more modern, causal clothing which is something that my group actually liked. Props were also fairly basic, hand guns were used through rising actions because they always give the audience a sense of fear, of suspense, which we liked. The natural lighting also gave the film a natural feel, it made the story more real which we also liked. Finally, all of the sound effects used in the film w...

Production (music)

 Today is March 7th and me and my group have worked on the music we will use in our film. I have already started the process of using the music in the film that will best fit for the certain scenes. At first, me and my group could not decide what music to use for the film. But me and my group searched different thrilling and establishing music and we found the ones me and my group like best. Me and my group will use establishing music for the beginning of the film. And my film will use thrilling music for climax and important events. Important events such as the kidnapper in our film escaping, and the vehicle driving off. The establishing music will take place for about the first 20-30 seconds of the film and get the film to establish a meaning and help the audience get interested. Me and my group will use many different thrilling music for the scenes. Me and my group want to make sure the music makes sense for the certain scenes being used.  I have already started filming the...

 Conventions that we liked: There was a lot of conventions used in this film that our group likes. The angles and the clamps have their own purposes. We liked that the costumes because they were very casual since the movie takes place in a skyscraper. They were also props such as machine guns being shot, during the rising action of the movie. We like that it gives the audience a sense of suspense with the guns being shot. The lighting used since its in a big city gives a thrilling vibe. We definitely want to use a certain lighting in our film. The lighting gives a natural thrilling feel. Finally, we like the sound used in the movie. The sound of suspense attracts the audience which is very good for the film. Conventions that my group didn't like: My group didn't like certain things found in the film. For one, the editing used seemed partially synthetic, and not believe able enough to the eye, although as we watched the film it did seem like a budget film hence the editing was n...
