The Phone Call

For this task we were asked to get into gropus of 2 or 3 and produce a short film called "The Phone Call". We decided on the roles (Directing, acting and editing) in the production and we were then asked to use storyboards in our planning to share ideas and decide on the camera shots we would use for our short film. We decided on doing a short suspesfull film about a threatining phone call. From our done planning and basic story line, we started filming straight away and managed to do it easily.


During our filming we tried to keep a professional feel to our production by the camera angles we would use, such as a dolly shot, a swish pam shot, close-up shot and much more. Thinking on other effects such as lighting and the mise-en-scene contributed to making of the short film. When we finished our filming, we were asked to edit and tweak our film to our likeness. We did this by using the Apple Mac laptop and it's useful programme, 'imovie'. It was the first time we used this programme and found quite difficult to start. In the end we managed to add a couple of transitions and texts at the beginning and end. After we planned, filmed and edited our production, we uploaded it to Youtube on our video upload school channel.
