Is the title that i was thinking of for quiet long because i couldn't decide which one would suit the movie best. At the end i though that 'THE GAME' will be the best because its simple and it keeps the idea of the movie stay behind.

EVALUATION activity 2

For the role of a girl who is looks young and innocent i chose Veronica because her facial expression just gives this childish innocent look which was the exact thing i needed to have. Its the same like the girl that played in 'The Orphan' she looked young and innocent and it turned out that she wasn't at all but my opening sequence and the movie not the same thing but it has similar basics such as the look of the girl which is similar to my look of the girl.

EVALUATION activity 3

This is the final video with the voice over:

This video explains the bits of the video which tell you what are the shot that I've used or talking about the place where i was filming. This will give you a clearer vision about this movie because the start of it is quiet confusing but i think that the comments that I've made are very helpful.

What does a production company do?
This is the company that produced films in which case is "Clock Production UK' that produced my film. To make sure I have mentioned this logo somewhere in my movie i decided to put it right in the front of the movie.

The idea of distributor and who that might be and why?
Distributors are the companies that distribute your film in ways such as DVD, Theaters, Cinemas, TV or internet. This makes your movie either become really popular or just be at the bottom of everyone. I've used "clock production UK' even though its a small budget company it still has chances of getting this movie in good rates.

Where the money might have come from for a film such-as yours?
D.A.S.H pictures provided me through the whole time of me making the movie also i borrowed money from a bank so that if i had to deal with something on my own i would have money.

In my research I used the same movies that are her favorite, therefore, she will be pleased after she watches my movie.

EVALUATION activity 5

How did you address your target audience ?

This is the interview I've taken with my friend Francesca Long she is 16 years and 10 moths old. She goes to my school but had never seen any of the drafts of my opening sequence. I showed her the final product and i prepared several question. Francesca knew that i was going to interview her but i didn't tell her what questions i've got because i wanted to hear her first reaction on my opening sequence

EVALUATION activity 6

These are the pictures of me using the technologies that i learned how to use by making this opening sequence.

And these are the programs that i've used in this project.

EVALUATION activity 7

Match on Action shots (1 and 2)

                             1

                   

                            2

180 degree rule (3 and 4)

                              3

                             4

There are not many shots because my first ever made video doesn't have many shots at all but i found 3 shots that i could talk about.
The first two shots are match on action shots, these show how the door would be open in the same way as in my movie
The other one is the 180 degree rule which is a really important rule and if you break this rule you will be able to see the camera that is filming on the other side and if it happens and there are two people talking it will just look like they are talking to themselves .

Health And Safety

There are not many thing to mansion about health and safety. In the first scene i've got the dad carrying the girl so i had to make sure that he could pick her up so that no one got hurt and both of them could come through the door at the place where i was filming the scene. The when he grabbed her by the hair and pulled her we had to try it out so that it didn't harm the actress.
The outside scene had two different parts where we had to do thing carefully and try it out before doing it. The first one was when the victim was walking on the pavement and she was wearing high hills so we had to be careful when she was walking. The second shot was when the grown up girl attacked the victim and she had to drag her behind the car which was dangerous too so before filming it we did it several time to make sure it would go well when i will be filming it.

Rating

My film will be rated as 15

This film will be rated 15 because it has violence and inappropriate language therefore this kind of movie is not supposed to shown to teenager who are under 15 years old. 

I didn't rate it 12 or 18 because if it was 12 i would have to cut out lots of scenes which will change the whole story which is about violence and it is physiological movie too so therefore it should not be shown to teenagers who are under 15. If i rated it 18 it will loose the popularity and no one would watch to watch it because these kind of movies are made for teenagers to get scared and then talk about this move for quiet a while. This is not that kind of a film that should be an 18 because it will just loose the interest of audience because the target audience are people from the age of 15 to the age of about 25 even though it might be not very interesting for people who are aged over 20 because it is one of those films where teenagers get creeped out and people who are over 20 will think that this is something boring and not scary and the reason for that is because they are pass the level where you like watching scary movies. On the other hand the plot of my movie is quiet intriguing so maybe people aged over 20 would like to come and watch something like this.

So the outcome for this is that this movie should be rated 15

Draft 2

After all the feedback i got i sat down the night after and did all the corrections and i've improved to a different level of the opening sequence. So this is my second draft, it isn't perfect and not exactly how i want it to be, so this time i will look at it several times and decide what i have to do to improve this and then ask my teacher what if what i considered to be removed or aded will be fine and good enough to make it a final opening sequence.

Weaknesses:

• Sounds and soundtracks are nor placed on the scenes where it will be better with it.
• Some shots are just unclear of what is happening 
• No title

Strengths:

• The acting
• The quality of the camera
• Most shots clearly show what is happening and where
• On some of the scenes good soundtrack and effects
• Good match-on-action
• Lots of good shots
• Good places used for filming

Feedback

The feedback that i have i got from the students in my class and my teacher.

• First thing that i was told almost by everyone was that the whole thing is too long, which is 2.34 minutes. I think that it is long but and i didn't even finished doing it all i still have several titles to put in, so i talked to my teacher and he said that i should cut out lots of the bits that wouldn't make a big change in the opening of the movie. 
• The other thing that i was told is to add soundtrack on different part of the opening so that the audience would feel the pressure and be a little bit scared as it is a thriller movie.
• Also i was told to make sure i have a title which i can't think of and i still have sometime to think about it because this is only the first draft of my opening sequence.
• In several scenes there is wind blowing and the teacher and some students told me to get rid of those shots or make sure that no one could here the wind.
• Some people told me to make sure that the music was suitable for the specific scene
• Others said that they really like the props, the costumes and the makeup i used in different scenes
• My teacher told me that there are some great shots but i wouldn't be able to fit all of those in to two minutes of my opening scene so i would have to cut out lots of different shots

Those thing that have been said by people who watched the first draft must be changed and improved.

Draft 1

This is the first draft of my opening sequence:

This is isn't the final thing so i need some feedback from different people to make sure that we have the same opinion of what changes i should make. Therefore i asked my class to watch the first draft of my opening sequence to tell me what should be done to it to make it better.

Titles

To find the title that could fit the movie i made a big research. The titles that i've considered to use in my movie were:

- Dolls

- The House Of Dolls

- The Girl And The Dolls

- The Revenge 

- The Revenge Of the Girl

- The Sweet Revenge

- The Girl

- Girl Doll

- Dolls Story

- The Game

All those names connect to the movie but i had to choose one and the one that didn't really give the idea of what is going to happen in the movie. I chose the name 'The Game' because i thought it give a rough idea of what this movie is going to be about and it sounds quiet mysterious because the game could be anything really, it could be a fun thing because a game is usually something you play in a good way but here you don't know what to thing. The reason i wanted to hide the idea of the movie so that if someone saw the title could get interested because the word GAME doesn't really give you any ideas of what could this film be about so what the audience would do is look up on the internet or in the magazine or any type of source where they could find something about this movie and when they would it will be more intriguing for them so therefore more people would come to watch something like this.

Sound

The sound I've used in my movie were given me by my teacher which were on a CD and those soundtracks were once where you would feel tense because i'm making a thriller movie so those soundtracks were very useful for me.
The other sounds and soundtracks i took from iMovie. The sound i've used were like the door slamming or the sound when you walk.

These are called 'iLife Sound Effect' and it has really good sound that could be used in any kind of a movie. 

I didn't record any voice over because all the talking i've had was recorded the way i wanted to, so there was no need in that.
