Year 2: Cinematagraphic - Film

These are some of the stills from our final film.

Year 2: Cinematagraphic - Documentary

Once we had created a storyboard, we were able to start filming, below are screen shots from the documentary we created, showing the film process.

Year 2: Cinematagraphic - Final Idea

After a lots of testing of the initial ideas, we decided that we would use the children's perspective idea, as it gave us a lot more to work with and we weren't as restricted of what we could do with this idea.


Location Ideas

• Playground
• Tourist Attraction - Buckingham Palace
• House
• Zoo/Aquarium
• Toy Store

Again we tested the following ideas, but a lot of them didn't look right or work with the child's perspective, as some of the places were not very interesting from this perspective. However the playground had more potential as it was such a large space, we would have a lot more room to film and fewer restrictions to scenery.

We therefore decided to shoot the film in a playground, we found a perfect little playground near Waterloo, which had the Millennium Eye in the background (which would be a good feature in the film).

Year 2: Cinematagraphic - Initial Ideas

• Tourist attractions - directions, from a child's perspective, different languages, maybe voice over directions.
  
• Children's Perspective - Different heights (inspired by Alex Rubins film 'Routes').
• Construction Site - Interesting sounds and perspective, can follow each builders narrative.
• John Smith's 'Girl chewing gum' - Could use a similar theme of using a voice over that narrates and gives directions to people that have been filmed in everyday life.
