Current Prop List/Starting to Film

With reference to our script and storyboard, I have written up a prop list that we would need for our scenes. A prop is "a portable object other than furniture or costumes used on the set of a play or movie". Below, I have put props that we would need, and the reasons why we need it:



Starting to film

Also, we have started filming the production for our trailer. We have taken shots of the main scenes that will help build our storyline. This includes taking shots of the "football scene", where we establish that the cast is playing football, and the phone is dropped, which will lead to myself (Josh) picking up the phone. We have taken a shot where we establish the scene of us playing football. We done this through the use of an establishing shot (long shot), to help set the scene. We also did a panning shot of the scene (where the camera position stays still, but the lens moves from one side to another) to help set the scene.



Moreover, we used a shot where we see Will shoot the ball into the back of the net. We've done this with another long shot, to ensure the whole activity of shot can be seen from the nature of the game, to the goal being scored. It also shows that the phone is dropped. However, I would've preferred to have the camera switch to another shot to see the phone falling out of his pocket (close up shot), but unfortunately, we do not have the high-quality technology in order to do that, nor could we figure out a reasonable alternative.



In order to show that the phone was dropped out of Will's pocket, we've decided to use a close up shot to establish the phone being stolen by someone else, which is not Will, but infact myself. We see myself cautiously kneel down and pick up the phone whilst everyone else is celebrating. I then slide it into my hoodie pocket, and I stand back up, before walking out of the shot.
