Sound design

We will be having some Foleys in our short film. For example, we will be having foleys for the car, paintball gun and music for the radio for the car scenes. we are going to have to think really hard about what sort of sounds we want to go for and how we want them to sound. when we are recording our sounds we need to make sure that there isn't any background noise so it can sound crisp and clean.
The sounds that we will need for the car are the sounds of the doors closing and opening, the sound of the engine starting and possibly turning off, possibly the sound of the horn. We are also going to need the sound of the radio.
There is only one sound that we are going to need for the paintball gun. The sound we are going to need is the sound of the paintball gun firing.
The sound that we are going to need for the car is the radio playing in the background. The reason we are going to use a foley sound of the radio playing is that when we are filming we don't want the radio playing as it will probably mess up our dialogue and it won't be as clear as we want it to be. I have spoken to Sophie our technician and she has said that we can record the foley of the radio using our phones. Its also better to foley record because if we record the radio within the shots when we cut shots we will get a cut in the radio and that will sound awful.  

Locations and health and safety.

1. Our first location will be a office building which has all glass around the side of the building, this is going to act as our first location for our first interview. The heath and safety issues with filming is being aware of cars and making sure that we don't get in anyones way.

2. Our second location for our short film is Delta Force Paintballing this will be the location for our second job interview. One of the main Health and safety issues would be getting shot with a paintball gun so to resolve this we will need to wear protection.

3. Our third location will be Primark in Crawley and this will be the location for our final interview for our short film. it will take place in an interview room within Primark. The health and safety issues with this is a fire we are going to need to know where the fire exits are incase there is a fire.

Our plan as a group for these two lessons are to get the storyboard done so we can start creating the animatic by our next lessons.

Idea Development

The idea for our film has changed slightly.
It is as follows the main protagonist's name is Ted he is trying to get a job with the help of his friend. However he is not like a normal person during his interviews, he acts very peculiarly and messes his interviews up in a very comedic fashion. He will have around 3 interviews throughout the film and after each one it will cut to a shot in the car with his friend telling him off and becoming more and more frustrated with Teds inabillitiy to have a successful interview. The film will mainly be aimed at 18-25 year olds as they can all relate to the struggles of getting a job and would all find the silly comedy of the film very funny making it succesful with our target audience.

Cast
Sam will control videography and directing of the short film.

Jordan will play the part of Ted.

Tom will play the part of Teds friend, his name is currently undecided.
