Making the photo wall.

Today we printed all our pictures and took them to our location. We then stuck our religious quote in the middle of our wall and started to stick all the pictures around the quote. However, it didn't take us long to realise that we would need many more pictures than we had to fill our whole wall. We therefore need to think about a way of either adding more pictures or a new idea for where to put our pictures, as an incomplete wall doesn't have the impact we were hoping for.

Sounds For Our Production

Today we went on freesound.org to look for potential backing music to our production. We have decided that our production does not need any dialect in it so all noises will be non-diegetic. For the majority of our production we want to have sinister music playing. When looking through the sound clips on freesound.org we discovered many different samples we could use. We took note of which ones we liked and will go back to them once we have finished all videoing.

Rosary Beads Update

Today we searched Ebay for rosary beads and found a wide variety. There were several which would have suited the job and in the end we chose some wooden rosary beads as we liked these ones the best. We then placed our bid and eventually won. Our rosary beads should be with us some point this week.

Rescheduling Our Filming

Today we had to give the camera we had booked out to another group.

Due to not being able to locate all our props we were unable to do much of our filming. Therefore we plan to start all our filming from scratch the week we go back to school, as that is the soonest we can get another camera.

Rosary Beads Update

Today we went to Rothwell and Corby to try and find the rosary beads needed. Despite going in many shops we were still unsuccessful.

We have now decided to look for them on the internet and will search Ebay first.

Rosary Beads Update

Today we looked around the local shops and charity shops trying to find the rosary beads needed for our production. Unfortunately we could not find them anywhere. We now plan to look around shops further afield in the next couple of days.

Designing The Wall For Our Production

Following several discussions we decided that our picture wall needed a focus point in the middle, preferably one with religious connotations. After further discussions we came up with the idea of finding a religious quote that relates to our production.

We then searched on the internet and went through many quotes until we found this one which relates to killing non-believers.


"They entered into a covenant to seek the Lord, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and soul; and everyone who would not seek the Lord, the God of Israel, was to be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman."

This quote fits in perfectly with our production as the main character believes it is her mission to bring people to God through murder.

Once we found the quote we scrawled it across a large piece of paper in a black marker pen and will now stick it on the wall amongst the other pictures.

Booking Out The Camera

Today we booked out a video camera as we plan to film our production over the Easter holidays. We only have the camera for the first week as we need to give it to another group in the second week due to there being a limited number of cameras.
