Group meeting 26/10/2009

Emily Potter and I, arranged a meeting in which to discuss our proposed ideas about our short film. I explained to emily about my idea to shoot a montage sequence of Beatrice trying to attract attention of the 'cool' guy she really fancies at the time. She liked the idea, however we have a new idea which we could possibly put in the scene, where she's so determained to get his attention, that she rings his mobile, after the phone conversation with her friends, she gets such a bad stutter as she doesn't know what to say, the phone call results in her embarrassing her self even more and hanging up very quickley without explanation.

Confused, the 'cool' guy attempts to ring her back to which catches her by total suprise and she ends up falling over in a very slapstick way, in the end she chooses to answer again and make up a very funny and over exaggerated story to why she called him in the first place to which, results in her embarrassing her self even more so.


We discussed the idea of cinematography and sound which would possibly be included within this scene, and i thought of the possible idea that we could subvert another genre into this scene, possibly some horror conventions. I feel this would add to the humour as she's fearing 'a phone call' since she's knows it's him and also it's not what the audience is expecting. I would use zoom ins, and non-diagetic sound onto the phone to give it a daunting and horror effect as well as low angles and high angles.
