Main Idea for Opening Sequence





Our main idea for the final continuity piece is as follows.

MIND CONTROL

The outline of Mind Control is about teenager by the name of Leroy who has a weird and somewhat insane personality. He is obsessed with murders and other devastating crimes which are published in the tabloids. If you go into his bedroom you will find articles scattered everywhere on the floor and walls of his dark and depressing room. Almost everyday he is subjected to take a knife from the kitchen draw to make him feel safe and powerful.

What the audience finds out after a short time through the film is that Leroy's uncle was a psycho murderer and was repeatedly in jail throughout his life. Three years ago, Leroy witnessed his uncle's suicide and his uncle said these words to him, "I will be with you always". When the uncle pulled the trigger of the gun which was placed on his temple, Leroy fainted and collapsed breaking his arm. Police arrive at the house where they find Leroy on the floor unconcious..later he is revived. He begins to tell the doctors and police about how his uncle died however, they ask him, "What on earth are you talking about?" and they believe that his still suffering from his fall. The policeman explains that there were no other bodies in the room except for Leroy. Leroy is left shocked and confused and begins to wonder if what he saw was true.

Later in the film, we see Leroy getting a taste for murder as he collects newspaper articles and dangerous weapons which could be used.

Finally, Leroy is unable to fight his taste for blood and murder an he begins

Storyboard for Continuity Piece

The production of our group's opening sequence surpassed my expectations to how it would be delivered through fluency and content. The group had to film the entire scene without the benefit of a tripod which surprisingly enabled steady progress on producing the different types of camera shots, from close-up to medium close-up, that we decided to use. I felt that the use of a tripod would have prolonged the delays to deliver the scenes because the equipment was not entirely reliable to use and that we had the fear that it was prone to jamming which would be an unwelcome addition to the production. With the camera being hand-held we felt that a sense of uneasiness is easily created as the perspective is being drawn from behind the character.


At times there have been minor disagreements over when to deliver which type of camera shots, but overall I felt the progress we made as a group over the course of the continuity project fared well with the amount of time that was given to meet the deadline.

To improve the performances in the future, our group must amend for the mistakes that we had initially been unaware of making and ensure they are to be not to be repeated. It would be recommendable that practice comes first before filming a camera shot or scene for the final time so this enables the group members to acknowledge what they are doing in their roles in the process and this avoids any further interferences, such as deciding which type of camera shot to use or deciding to place one scene before or after the other.
