Character Profiles for Media Studies Film

Main protagonist
  •         Name: Ronnie (hacker, played by Kurt)
  •        Characteristics: Confident, Smart, Witty, Cocky, Brutal yet calm and reserved at the same time. He knows what he's doing and doesn't like to be told e is wrong
  •         Costumes: generally wears the same as the other characters since the film is based in college and everyone is a student


Secondary protagonist
  •         Name: Henry (lookout/thief played by rowan )
  •         Characteristics: very common sense driven, brutal, smart, advisor to rowan, all round tough guy, Rowans right hand man.
  •         Costumes: generally wears skinny jeans, dark colours such as black and grey.


 Tertiary protagonist
  •         Name: Nathan ( lookout played by Dan)
  •         Characteristics: least smartest of the group and needs guidance by the other characters in order to pull of the task. Kurt is inexperience when it comes to technology so he will be the distraction since the role doesn't entail any electronics where as Dan and Rowan both use computers since Rowan will hack and Dan will monitor CCTV
  •         Costumes: smartly dressed, but again casual wear as he is still a college studet

The above link is to the youtube channel BrandonJLa which has a video showing you how to edit gun muzzle flashes into your films to make them loo more professional and not like the other ones you see o youtube of in other media films made by non professionals. Like us Brandon is using a version of adobe premier on mac and because of this i think that this video will be very useful when it actually come sot editing our film so that we can make it look as professional as possible.

preliminary task - script shots



My script could use the following:
[walking down corridor] - Close shot (perhaps of feet/legs walking), one side of 180°  line to show walking in same direction. Only 1 person with no action which Is why I'm not selecting a wide shot
Medium shot of person walking which reveals them to viewer. Only 1 person with no action which Is why I'm not selecting a wide shot
[opens door] - close up shot match on action cut to medium shot from inside the room of the door opening
[post room enter] -  wide shot to show viewer that the person has entered and that the other person already inside the room has acknowledged him enter. Hard cut to centered medium shot of person going to the table.
Cut again to another medium shot from another angle which will last longer to establish the 180° line.
Cut to wide shot showing both people sat at table using the camera positioned in the middle of 3 camera setup.
[conversation begins] - with two side cameras on the 3 camera setup, they will be positioned over one person's shoulder looking at the other person with the eye level being center, this will be used vice versa with other person to ensure consistency.
[conversation ends] - wide shot of two people, medium shot of person who originally entered leaving the room
Again using match on action through the door
[End]
