back to the future day

Back to the future day. The 21st of October is when Marty Mcfly traveled to the future in the second movie. It is interesting to compare what the reality of their future is to what they thought it would be. when they arrived in the future Marty was shocked by the advanced technology such as flying cars and self tying sneaker, hover boards.

Hover boards are real however they not as commonly used as the movie makes out they are still in laboratories being perfected for use. we have yet to design a flying car so that is still for the future to create although more and more movies and using flying car to help the audience to know that movie is set in the future.

SCRIPT 

She could hear the crunching of the gravel underneath her feet as she walked home from wok in the twilight. She began to feel the cold splatter of raindrops on her face and felt her long brunette hair dampen. quickening her pace, she continued on her journey home.

As she turned a corner she felt the hairs on the back of her neck stand up as the feeling of being watched washed over her. pushing away he feeling she carried on her trek home.

As she passed the half way point home, the feeling of being followed persisted. whilst crossing he road she peered over her shoulder only to see a man innocently entering the butcher shop. shaking her head at her paranoia she carried on her way.

Coming upon the end of her destination she spots he man from the butcher shop headed in her direction in a car mirror. a shiver travels down her spine and she quickens her pace further.

Realizing the stranger is closer than before she begins to run. noticing she has spotted him, he begins to chase her. she turns around a sharp corner in the hope f loosing him but he continues to pursue her. Panic strikes and she decides to sprint for ( a hiding place)....

Next-Office Scenes

Through the editing we were able to see what shots we need to redo and what other shots we can get;

Side angle of writer

Over shoulder shot

Yawning, Closing laptop, Leaving the room

Tapping Finger Slowly

Pause to Think 

Editing

We decided that in our media lesson that we would start editing the filming that we manged to get. this was very help because we managed to see where the shots will go and what shot we got in the filming session we need to redo and which shot that we got are going to be really effected.

First Session Filming

We did the first filming session this enable to get an idea of what we wanted and want we can do. we decided that some of the shot that we wanted would have to change we wanted to zoom in the on writer through the window however as we couldn't see her so. This lead to the choice that we would zoom on the window and fade to the write in the study. we also managed to get a few shot that we really liked that we didn't originally plan on getting such as the hand tapping, or the low angle shot.

Shot List

we have made a short list so that we have an idea of what shot we wanted to get. this will help us when we need to do some filming because it will give a starting point of what we need to do his will hep speed up the production and it might also inspire different shot that we could do.
