First Draft.

This is our first draft that our group has produced and what we have shown to multiple people to give us some constructive criticism.

Audience feedback

Our group have shown this to some of our friends and family to get there opinions on our thriller. Just to see if there is anything we can improve to make it up to a higher quality. Here is some of the feedback:

• Firstly one of our Friends pointed out that our titles may be in the wrong order because the actors names come up before the directors name and felt that this should be the other way round. 
• Therefore we have changed this because we wanted all the feedback as we could to help improve our thriller. We all agreed on that this may be in the wrong order so we have changed it so it should be in the right order.
• Also we found that the shot around 1:01 isn't needed at its there for a split second therefore there isn't enough time to see what is actually happening. We haven't took this as out of yet but I think we are going to get rid of it as we also thought it was an unnecessary scene to have.
  
   
• Also someone pointed out the title screen looks a bit too cartoonish and the slowed down laughter doesn't quite work. They said Perhaps an uncomfortably loud heartbeat/thud would be better and a white on black with ‘Fact’ then ‘Or’ then ‘Fiction’ coming up on the screen.
• Then lastly Between 1.53 and 2.11 the speed of these cuts need speeding up to go in time to the clock ticking. Alternate between black screen and glimpses of the dead bodies…just enough to show the audience what has happened and the screen of the phone to make the viewer work harder! And they said perhaps you can use this section to bring up your main title screen?

We are going to as a group go away and look through these comments and try to tweak a few things to make our thriller to the top mark.

Public Funding

As part of the Theory side to media I have looked at Why films may get/ use public funding. This is my research i found out ....

Continuity

This table is the finished one of many. As I made lots of little tables for each scene to make sure if we needed extra footage then everything can stay the same to keep the continuity within our thriller. But then Sid being as clever as Sid is put all of the tables in one like a genius.

Equipment needed.

Regional Identity

As a group we looked at what is meant when we say British. This included at looking at Regional Identity and the common features of being 'British'.

Regional identity includes:

-Place They are (Mise en scene). 

• This could be from Where in the world they are for example if its set in India you may expect the people there to be Indian. Or it could be how their house/ life works for example it could be the way their house is dressed.

-Dress

• Also the way people dress can sometimes not always symbolise where people are from like if they are waering traditional clothing of a certain place then you may be able to guess with some knowlage where they may be from.

-Accents

• Sometimes you can have an idea what region someone is from just from how they speak.

What does the term Being British mean to me?

Britishness:

-Drinking tea
-London Accent

These are some of the things that are related to people being British.

I believe that knowing some understanding of regional identity is very important in to days society as the world is ever changing and i believe that its important to know things about other people.
