Preliminary Task Compared to are Film Missed call has some huge changes as with the preliminary we were getting used to the camera experimenting what effects we could use what angles we could get and what effect we could get with the shots. As it was are first try practicing with a camera you can see there mistakes within the film,
One of the mistakes that we made was this one. In this shot you see the main character in the close-up but at the back you see a person who's not supposed to be in the shot also you can see the tripod, this is bad as if this was a shot for are film this would be shown as sloppy and unprofessional, it also would get rid of the realism of the film and the plot. You can also can see this in the second shot underneath, as you can see the teacher in this shot is obviously not meant to be in this shot but we didn't look back at the footage to see this, so not it looks lazy and this also ruins the feeling of the scene if this was to be are actual thing. Even though we know that the teacher shouldn't of been there, we could maybe got away with it, maybe people could think that he was meant to be in the shot but in the next shot the teacher is not in it. so this now confuses the audience and now is a obvious mistake.
another example of a mistake is right at the end josh says 'I'm am sorry for this ' this is followed by a gun shot however we didn't have any sound effects in order to show that he is shot instead it ends with a awkward movement with the gun killing the mood of the scene. Instead we have some make the sound of the gunshot with there voice this wouldn't suit the genre of the film as it would kill all tension the scene.
Originally in are opening sequence at the end of the scene we show the character Oscar get shot, we would use a sound effect of a gun in order to make this more obvious that he got shot. however we knew that this was an option we decided to not have a sound effect of a gun as we felt it would be more fitting for are genre, thriller. to not have a audio sound of a gun we wanted the audience to question whether the character was alive or not.
In are Preliminary Task we used no music sometimes you don't need to use music in order to build tension in the scene, but in are preliminary we didn't use any sound or audio, this made the scene seem boring and plain, especially for a thriller based film you would have to have music i feel you should as it sets the mood for the scene. But as you see from this picture we used music, this song is called 'Not a Chance' this song was very good for the opening sequence, as its the sort of music that would fit the opening sequence. the way i describe this song its like a silent song but you knew it was there. with every transition of a shot it would make a intimidating ding, which would keep the audience interested.
These are the shots we used in the film, i feel that these are just some examples of are opening sequence shows the difference of levels of the shots, i feel in the preliminary film, you see basic shots that have no meaning behind them, also no establishing shots are shown, this gets the audience bored and doesn't interest them to watch more.
This shot is a over shoulder shot, showing mysterious figures in the distance and a boy with a hoodie on walking past them, we used this shot to bring tension to the scene.
In this Shot it shows a panning shot of objects bringing questions into the audiences mind wandering where is this?
Establishing shot of the house that the boy is being held
Another establishing shot to build tension in the opening sequence.
Another Over shoulder shot of a man with a gun in his hand and the boys blurred legs in the distance.
Close up to the phone that shows Aaron calling the boy that is on the ground, we hope this shot gets the audience questioning who is this boy? why is he captured? and what is the whole beef of these Boys?
