My Movie

Broken - Short film 

Task: Create a short film that lasts 4-5 minutes. 

Here I present to you our short film called Broken.

The production of the movie was a very fun experience and a task that I found very easy doing in a group environment. The scenes were structured really well however there was some changes in the script that was placed merely because we felt as a group some of the words in the script needed to be more dramatic.

Recce Shots

 On this post is where I present the pictures where some of the scenes were shot for our short film Broken.We decided to do our film in various locations such as St Georges park, the enrichment center in school and also in the school cafeteria.

Why did you choose these locations?

I decided to choose these locations because I believe that they were the perfect environment for our film. We wanted to shoot our film in a school atmosphere to represent that the actresses were still in education and of a young age.

We choose the park scene to add a playful and young presence to the actresses and also to show the contrast of how the main character went from sad to happy, last but not least we picked the enrichment center as a location as it looked like a very sophisticated  place where we can present it as a Councillors office where meetings take place. 

Diary Entry

On Wednesday, we successfully completed the filming part of our short film and some of the people in my group have begun the editing process. In our group, some of us decided to do a draft edit of the short film on iMovie  and see how it looks and then proceed to edit on a different editing software called final cut pro which is more professional.

Diary Entry

Today was a very productive day as my group and I got the chance to film our movie.
Overall, we completed the 1st scene that needed to be recorded in the lunch hall and enrichment centre. We decided that we were going to film our 2nd scene which is the last scene.

Our next scene will be recorded in St Georges Park near the campus as my group wanted to add a peaceful and calm environment to the movie where the actresses could communicate to each other adding a playful and relaxing presence towards them.

When it comes to recording and finishing our short film we are hoping to be finished tomorrow and hopefully aim to start editing tomorrow through to Wednesday.

What is the genre of the movie and the name?

The name of the movie is called broken and represents the feelings that one of the actresses obtains as she battles being involved in an abusive relationship and the genre is a short film.
