I re-read some of my blog entries and have now thought that i will go over every thing that we've done thus far.
We started offf with an idea, which included us doing a boxing opening. We wanted to mimic the Famous jog which was highly iconic in the first Rocky movie. When we begun to film it we were confronted with several problems, E.g. Location and timing. We still hope to update the blog with the footage and photos we took on those dates. We then switched to a much easier objective, it was simple of a guy being chased by another. When we found out the majority of the media groups were doing the same story we decided to change it and give it a twist. We worked hard to create a certain feel off the opening, we wanted to make it feel like an old fashioned western. We saw many things we could include in terms of the genre. We found a nice location which was silent.
We ran through a list of shot types which we then tried to pull off, we added a variety of shots which could then be quicked during the editing process so the pace can be maintained. This is waht we've done in terms of the idea and filming but this is only a quick summary.
So stay connected and check out of blog in the upcoming weeks to see more information and photos

UPADTE!!!!
Right, We havnt been here for quite a while, soooo i have much to update you lot about. The first and maybe the most important is that we have changed the whole plot of the two minute clip. we have moved aaway from the boxing idea because of difficulties in filming. Though we will be updating the pictures and movie clips we filmed and took over the course of the past 4 weeks, so they dont go to waste.
The new plot is one which contains a plot twist, The idea is We see mubashir coming out from a place called eagle court, we follow him untill he reaches a point. Then we bring in a new character who is to be believed as a crook and one who would rob the innocent mubashir. we have him follow mubashir for a while, before he utters the words 'Oii, wheres my phone/ i know you'. Mubashir then runs and he falls over and then pleads the person not to rob him. As the 'crook' comes into the light we realise the two are actually close friends and the crook identifies himself as being michael. the pair share a joke and then begun to walk away. In the distance we hear, 'Oii wheres my money' leaving the pair motionless just before fleaing the scene. this opens the question whether the new character is a friend or a crook. the scene finishes there.

Sixth post: New member
Breath of fresh air, we have a new member, Rory from 3 we go to 4. Less pressure on the group..........
Fifth post: Film clip
The rough idea of what our group has come up with is based around the sports genre. It tells the story of Mubashir a 17 year old boxer who is about to make it big if he impresses a promoter who has come to see if he has got what it takes.
The clip begins off at his boxing club, we see him putting on individual clothing. When we he puts on his pants, it cuts to black and titles are shown, the same happens after he puts on his gloves and to limit it becoming repetitive we join the clips of him putting on his socks before cutting to a final black, when we fade from black we see Mubashir throwing a punch to a punching bag, we match cut this to a video of Mubashir when he was a kid throwing punches in a video. We start a slow zooming and we see Mubashir watching the clip, the silence is broken by the father. He delievers an important line which tells a bit more what the clip is going to be about. At this point Mubashir replies and we cut to him at the backroom of the event, we hear in the background the chanting of fans and friends. He is visibly nervous and his body is shuddering. it cuts to him entering the ring. The fight begins and he takes a few punches and a few more. When his against the ropes he looks over and sees his father and future promoter driving him on. At this point he begins to fight and he pushes his opponent into the corner just before the round ends. The clips ends and we are shown the name of the film.
