Pre-Lim Planning

For this task, we chose to have a meeting between Brandon and Tommy about the change in price of a Freddo over the years.

In this preliminary task, me, Emily and Brandon filmed Tommy walking down the corridor looking all angry because of the price of a Freddo. In this scene, we filmed a long shot of the door before Tommy walked in the building. In the second shot, we filmed a medium close up of Tommy walking along the corridor. In the third shot, we filmed a close up of Tommy's feet as he would walk past the camera towards the lift. In the fourth shot, we have one where Tommy is about to enter the lift to up to the next floor. In the fifth shot, it shows Tommy in the lift pressing the buttons. In the next shot, it is a medium long shot of Tommy after he exits the lift on the top floor. In the seventh shot, it is a close up of Tommy's hand opening the door to the office. In the next shot, we have a low angle shot of Tommy as he walks into the room with an angry expression on his face. After this we show the 180 degree rule of Tommy sat at the table opposite Brandon. After we show the 180 degree rule, we then have a two shot of Brandon and Tommy sat the table discussing the price of a Freddo. In the final shot, it shows Tommy walking out the room in a mid shot as the price of a Freddo has not been changed at all. We used all these different kinds of shots because we thought they would be quite good to use as we mainly filmed Tommy walking up corridors and therefore using these different shots for the particular scenes that we filmed. We chose to have the long shot of Tommy walking in the corridor because it seemed like quite an exciting shot to use as you could first off see who was entering the building and you could also see the kind of expression they had on their face, making it easy for you to tell quite quickly whether they were going to be happy, sad or annoyed. As you move on to near the end of the sequence, we used the low angle shot because it would then make Tommy look like quite a large and scary character, which would also work well with the fact that he was looking quite angry when he walked through the two front doors.
