Own initial ideas

Together as a group we came up with the story line, but we individually thought of ideas to the add to the story to make it the best we could. I decided on the location because every other location we chose had faults. As a group we decided on the clothes and props. I decided what we should roughly do our film about then we adapted our idea.

Individual response to planning meetings and editing process

Planning our story was the hardest part,We found it easy to work with each other which was good for the group. We had three different story lines that we wanted to use but all of them had faults, so we decided to take parts from all of them and put them into one story. That is how we come up with Redemption. We all put a lot of time and effort into the planning to make out opening successful. We watched clips out of Adulthood to see the attire that the characters wear, which helped us decide on the clothing for our characters. once we had filmed our opening we had to do the editing we used a program called Final cut,at the begging we just was getting used to the program, we all took turns on editing but unfortunately I found it harder to use so I let Daniel and Daniel do most of the editing.

individual response to the idea/ thoughts about group choice

We each had different ideas on the settings, Daniel had the idea to go to a park near our sixth for,m but when we started filming we realized the park wasn't good to work with, and we wasn't aloud to film there so we had to decide on a different setting. Daniel G had the idea of filming in Manor park but unfortunately it was too far. I had the idea of going to Blagdon park in New Malden it was a good choice because it was near, quiet and easy to film in. The only problem with this park is that parents and children can come inside the park so we had to stop filming. We had to the park during lessons because that was when there wasnt any children. We filmed on two different days but we had to start over on the second day due to the weather change. It was easy for us to decide on what the characters wear because its in music videos and were familiar with this situation so we knew what types of clothes to wear. We also got ideas by watching opening sequences and trailers for props and clothes. For example we used the trailer from Adulthood. We decided Jay should wear a black hoody, trainers, black hat and a bandanna this shows hes not looking for attention from the crowd. For Curtis we simply used casual clothes. We needed to find a blunt object to b used as a weapon, this is a significant object and it could carry on a story.
