The Most Beautiful Thing (Short Film)

Production Schedule

I decided to use Google Docs because any changes made to the schedule can easily be made and the other people will all be informed at the same time. This has caused the communication between our group a lot easier as everyone knows exactly what they are doing.

Organising people involved!

Izzy's friend Jess, is the owner of Oscar (the dog) and lives on Corbets Tey road which is where we will film our short film. Therefore we have organised times when Jess is available as this is when we can film with the dog. Any other days we will have to film the scenes where the dog is not featured; for example in the sweet shop. Other than Jess it is also important to organise dates and times with my sister Lily who will play the role of Annie as a child.

Meet Oscar!

When decided what dog to use for our piece, we chose Oscar! Oscar is a very loveable dog who is very well trained. The fact that he is well behaved will allow me and Izzy to film with him easily, he is also a very big dog, causing him to be huggable. This gives him and the whole film the cute factor!

Storyboard of chosen idea

Me and Izzy took pictures of possible locations where we could film different scenes.

Adapting our idea!

When developing our idea for our main brief, me and Izzy changed our storyline to make it more effective. We have decided that the idea will be a young girl who leaves home after an argument with her family. Throughout the piece, Annie will have flashbacks when walking past places of sentimental value, these flashbacks being her happy with her family. The ending will be, the last flashback of her blowing out her birthday cake, to a zoomed in jump cut to her blowing her hands for warmth, discovering she is homeless to the audience.
