1. Is it practical?
I think ours will be easy to for us to film as we have the location in lutterworth so not far to travel. Also the actors are close friends and live near by. The only thing that might hold us back slightly is that we want ours to be in the night so any practical work that we might be set in a lesson we might be stuck with nothing to do. This means we would be wasting time. This also means that we would have to do it in our own time and take a camera out for a night.

2. Is it an idea that works to the strengths of the group?
I think we all add something to the group as emma is very artistic and has been able to show our idea down on paper. I think this is really important as you find when it comes to a practical idea its very hard to explain and to have someone in your group who can do this i think its a really advantage. I think rob is a motivator of the group especially when it came to the ideas. He had alot of ideas. Some that went on to a completely differernt genre this is good as it gave us range. Then my role came in when we had a lot of ideas i would simplify them down and see the bigger picture of whether we will be able to do certain camera shots, whether they will look tacky or not. Or even if it was possible at all as we dont have any money budget, so we were unable to do anything with big specail effects.
3. Will it show off the skills you have learnt so far on the course?
Yes we are including match on action, over the shouldre 180 degree rule and a range of different and imaginative shots.
4. Is it something you can reasonably shoot and edit in the time available?
Yes as our location is in lutterworth and so are our actors. We also have a Macs at school that are available in our lessons.
5. Can you get access/ permission to shoot in the chosen location at the chosen times?
Yes as it is emmas house we will be able to do it at any time.
6. Can you organise lighting to use in that location?
This shouldnt be to much of a problem as we are filming alot in emmas kitchen and there is alot of small lights scattereed around the room. This should there for allow us to create a dull effect to fit in well for the theme of the opening. If this does not work we will be able to use colour contrasts and colour effects to help create the atmorsphere.
7. Have you included dialogue? If so, will it work to shoot conversation in that location?

We decided to use only one bit of dialogue in ours, this is from the mother and she says "Darling whats wrong". Our reasons for doing this is because we wanted to sustain a constant atmosphere and tension throughtout the whole opening this allowed an element of secrecy in the opening. Which keeps the audience engaged.
8. Do you have guaranteed high quality reliable actors to play the characters?
I would say that they are quite reliable as they are both drama students and live near by they are also close friends so they are more likely to be commited.
