On this blog i will record my progress through the A2 set of work. For A2 we must create a short film like ones seen on youtube or new directors uses as portfolio. The short film can be any genre and must be at least 5 minutes long.

Props List / Research
This is a list of the props we plan to use in our short film with pictures of examples of what we want. I have annotated each picture with a number so I can refer to the specific picture in the text below.
Picture Number 1: This is a cordless house phone, we plan to have one of our main characters, Brian to use one similar to this picture I have taken from the internet. In the scenes where Brian is at home he will use this phone to answer the calls from the obsessive girl he saved.
Picture Number 2: This is the car we want the female character Karen to deliberately throws herself in front of. We have picked this car because we have easy access to cars similar to it and it can break sharply and come to a stop quickly, this will be useful when filming the scene and safer for the actors involved in filming.
Picture Number 3: This is the car we want our main character to drive in the scenes where he gets a call while driving and when he pulls on his drive. We have picked this car because it is in the price range of our character so it is realistic and wont make viewers confused on what the characters job is.
Picture Number 4: This is the car we want to drive past the second time she decides to try and kill herself. Again this is a compact small car that will stop quickly and will also fit in shot very easily.
Picture Number 5: This is the phone we want Brian to use when he driving. We should have him using a hands free system to encourage safety to viewers. This phone is also realistically affordable to Brian our character.
Picture Number 6: Karen writes her phone number on a pice of paper with a pencil we need to make sure to include this and all other items on our props list. I will also post a props list that can be printed to take out filming.
