Planning the shoot of our pilot sequence.

Yesterday our groups planned our pilot sequences , a member of our group was ill so sadly couldn't input . We were informed to firstly make the pilot as similar as possible to what our real title sequence will look like, which meant we would have to use a lot of the same shots , secondly look at all the different aspects that would make our sequence , we had too plan the locations we would shoot at , the sourcing of appropriate costumes and outfits , the props and the actors. the pilot will be shot on our phones , we planned to use my iPhone as it has the best camera .
We drew a plan , including different shots , themes of credits and the title . It looked a little like this :



Locations - Our pilot has to be filmed within the school as we only have a short period of time to shoot and edit it. we hadn't quite made our minds up on setting but we need a place that involves a kitchen with a window that ideally looks onto a road.

Outfits - We would use women's very average avery day casual outfit for the woman , and dirty rugged casual clothes for the man who has basically been out cutting fire wood , to fit the males charecter.

Props - We will need a kettle , knife and vegetables , hoover and hopefully a car .

Actors - An elder man and elder woman , we would use teachers from hurtwood as an elder couple.

Effects-We are going to include credits that fade off the screen the whole way through the pilot and a title that will fade also , then obvioulsy the usual effects that we will use to enhance sounds , blend shot etc..
In order of shots , this would be the description of the pilot sequence . Begin with a black screen , a chopping noise can be heard , the credits slowly appear then fade in the top left corner , then the title comes up "Anna" , then fades , the chopping noise then fades into a synced ecu shot of a knife cutting vegetables . The shot then switches to a ecu of a kettle steaming (the whole way through , the credits are entering then fading in the top right corner ) . Then a medium shot of the back of a woman , including the kettle and we see her chopping . Then a shot of a window and we see her shadow walk past , straight after we see a car drive past , it then suddenly changes to the lowed noise of a hoover turning on , and a ecu of the hoover going back and forth , then a shot of the back of her as she moves the hoover , slowly we see two hands come behind her and grab her , we soon realize with a shot of them hugging that its her husband.
