Pre Production 2/ LOCATION PLANNING

Pre Production

we decided to recast as some cast members were unavailable to attend to shooting.

Our bully changed from Issa to AJ as we found out that we were not allowed to use our Media Group Students in our movie as main cast.

Continued in FOCUS GROUP.

Location Planning
Maths Classroom: This is where we will meet our main character, Drew played by AJ. he will be 'told off' by the math teacher, leaving in an upset state of mind
Main Corridor: We will follow our main character through this corridor once he leaves Maths all frustrated and 'upset'
Cafeteria: The first location where the protagonist will encounter the victim who has supposedly angered Drew 
Courtyard: This will be where Drew and Billy will be face to face in a threatening encounter. Leaving Billy scared, and Drew slightly satisfied. So we think.

Art films are generally serious artistic work which is never really aimed at the mass market. This is because they are quite experimental and primarily made to be aesthetically pleasing rather than for commercial profit purposes. They portray high symbolic content and nothing mainstream, thus casting a sense of social realism. Opening Sequence We decided to research and analyse various opening sequences online. First we looked at an action opening as our first choice (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iMQR_pPHOWg). We then decided to watch a movie called, 'cyber bully'. We found this movie quite appealing and decided to go along the path of bullying.
