Ident

This is an ident me and my partner Dilwar came up with.

Our production company is called Rockafella. 

We chose to use the lighting to make it strike the audience. 

Character,roles and props

Me and my partner Dilwar came up with the following character:


Sneaks - This is the main character of the film, played by Ezekiel, he will be wearing a a coat, jeans and a cap

Zimmer - He is a drug lord in the film, played by Gurmit, he will be wearing a shirt and suit

Bodyguard - He will be Zimmer's bodyguard in the film, he will also be wearing a a shirt and suit

Driver  - He will be the driver of a drive by in the film, played be Rayhan, he will be wearing jeans and a top.

Shooter - He will be the shooter in the drive by in the film played by Dilwar, he will have his face covered

Young Sneaks - During the flash back he will be the character of Sneaks as a young child played by Asher, he will be wearing a school uniform, hat and coat.

Equipment & Setting

Me and my partner Dilwar discussed what equipment will we use to make our film. We will use the following:
high definition video camera, I will use a high definition camera so I can get a good quality film with good detail. I will also need a tripod for professional steady recording and apple mac to edit my footage on.


We then talked about what Mis-en-scene would be we came up with the following:
It would be set in a house inside a room with expensive things and a table, we chose this beaucse when we researched films the same genre as ours we saw the setting ws usaully in a rich looking room, E.g Godfather opening scence. Also we wanted it to look offical so our charcters would be dressed smartly however our main character was dressed differently this was beaucse the film was aimed aimed at middle class people so they could relate to the character.

Location

Me and my partner Dilwar looked at good locations where we could shoot our film also we had to look at things like lightening, we wanted it to look like an expensive place. Dilwar's house was perfect location for this because there was good lighting and also he had a nice expensive looking room with leather sofa. Also we had to film at drive by shooting his road was very quiet this would be perfect because we wouldn't have many disruptions.

Lighting

Me and my team member Dilwar talked about the type of lighting we would have in the opening sequence of our film. We decided :
Our first shot we will use the outside lighting which will be slightly dark, so it will set the mood of the film.
Our second shot will be inside a house, this shot will be brightly lit so every detail can be seen.
Our thrid shot will be outside again this will be using the outisde lighting also around 4pm where it starts to get dark but not to dark becasue we need to record every detail.

Music

I will be using music in the film. The type of music I will be using is Hip Hop/ gangster rap music. The reason for this choice of music is because my target audience is young people who listen to rap music. Also from my film research I found the films which were closely related to mine used urban, Hip Hop and rap music throughout.
