Filming Times

These are the days we filmed so far;

26th January 2013, 11am- 6pm- We filmed most of our task, outside and inside scene are done

2nd February 2013 11am - 3pm- We did some re-filming of the shot we did wrong previously and managed to get it done all in that day.

Title Font and Colours

We are looking at what font and colouring we should use for our opening sequence.

Production Name- Our production is RANK and for the first clip we will need to show our logo and production name we would like to present it with the colour red as red is normally portrayed as blood and will go well with our plot 

Logo- For our logo we would have come up with several logos and think that our best one is the droplet of blood this is because in our task we will have blood and it will go well with the colour of our production name .

Credits- For our credits will are looking at a website called "Da Font"( http://www.dafont.com/ ) where it has many font for us to chose which one will go best we the theme of our plot. As an example we have though about using a font called "Frisky Vampire" but we do not want to use the same font for the title of our task so we have not decided whether or not to use it but we have decided that since we have changed the plot we have any dark scene so we thought that the credits should be in white so that they are contrasted with the clips.

Title- Our title for our main task is called "More Than Human" we chose this because it because of our plot our main character (Anna Smith) has just escaped a mental institute after being diagnosed with Hallucinogen and has had some unusual side effects which is why we think "More Than Human" is appropriate. We are going to see what the title looks like in "Frisky Vampire but we know we will want it in a blood red colour to assure the target audience that it is a horror film.

Production Name Logos


After lots of logos that one of our group member Aalisha has drawn out on her software where it allows her to draw free hand on it then transfers on the computer we have decided to go with the simple blood droplet because we think that the simply logo contrast our main task but at the same time allows the audience know what film they are about to watch. 
As you know R.A.N.K stands for all of our team names Rosaline, Aalisha, Naomi and Klodiana which is why we thought that it would make a good production name not only that but the word "Rank" is a slang word for disgusting which i think suits our main task perfectly.


These are some of the other logo that we cam up with 

This one has a puff of smoke behind our production name we thought it was good because it adding mystery to our task.


This one was my favourite because I thought that the compas symbol went well with the personality of the character because of her being mentally ill.




This logo was design the same way as the one we are going to keep but this one has barb wire around the Rank 


Production Title

Our production name is R.A.N.K we chose this name because the first letter of each of our names spell it R(osaline) A(alisha) N(aomi) K(lodiana) but the word R.A.N.K can also relate to our target audience (young adults) because the word Rank is slang for disgusting.

Sound Effects


We also thought that some of this particular clip would be great for some intense dramatic effects in where a shock or a jump is needed.

Soundtrack Ideas 2


We thought that this soundtrack would go really well when Anna Smith is running to the house but we will not use all of it but from 0:30s - 1:35s we will pick out the best parts that build up suspense and make her running more dramatic.
