We started to upload out footage we previously recorded onto the Macs today. We managed to upload approximatly 5 minutes of footage which contained 36 clips. We than imported the second part of our footage which was 3 minutes 51 seconds containing 35 clips.

09/02/11

We went into the libary today to collect a tripod and camera to film some more but Miss Georgeson was absent, so we had to find Mr Henton who gave us one of his camera's to use. We continued to film the remaining scenes with out actress Chloe Keenoo.

31/01/11

Me and Harriet began to film our opening scene today, Brodie was ill so she couldnt participate. We was only able to film for a short time but managed to film 2 scenes, this was because out actress was short on time and needed to go.

16/01/11

Me and Harriet collected out group memory card from Mr Henton. We orignally planned to start filming but as Brodie was ill we couldn't begin to film.

We are planning on starting filming on the 24/01/11 or the 26/01/11

Film Classifaction

As our 2 minute opening is for a teen horror movie, we needed to be familiar with film classification, especially a 15' certified film. To get this information I visited the British Board of Film Classification website (http://www.bbfc.co.uk/) and went onto 15'. This website showed the guildlines about a certified 15' film and what is and isnt allowed to be included in the film. This is vital to know as everthing included in our opening should be of a 15' certificate and nothing more or else there is a risk we will get marked down.

Suitable only for 15 years and over -

No one younger than 15 must see a '15' film in the cinema.

No one younger than 15 may rent or buy a '15' rated video work.

Discrimination-

The work as a whole must not endorce discriminatory language or behaviour.

Drugs-

Drug taking may be shown but the film as a whole must not promote or encourage drug misuse.

The misuse of easily accessible ad highly dangerous subatances (for example, aerosoles or solvents) is unlikely to be acceptable.

Horror-

Strong threat and menace are permitted unless stadistic and sexualised.

Imitable behaviour-

Dangerous behaviour (for example, hanging, suicide and self harming) should not dwell on detail which could be copied. Easily accessible weapons should not be glamorised.

Language-

There may be frequent use of strong language (for example, 'fuck'). The strongest terms (for example, 'cunt') may be acceptable in justified by the context. Aggressive or repeated use of the strongest language is unlikely to be acceptable.

Nudity-

Nudity may be allowed in a sexual context but without strong detail. There are no constraints on nudity in non-sexual or educational context.

Sex-

Sexually activity may be portrayed but without strong detail. There may be verbal references to sexual behaviour, but the stringest references are unlikely to be acceptable unless jusified by context. Works whos primary purpose is sexual arousel or stimulation are unlikely to be acceptable.

Theme-

No theme is prohibited, provided the treatment is appropriate for 15 year olds.

Violence-

Violence may be strong but shoukld not dwell on the infliction of pain or injury. The strongest gory images are unlikely to be acceptable. Strong sadistic or sexualised violence in also unlikely to be acceptable. There may be detailed verbal references to sexual violence but any portrayal of sexual violence must be discreet and have a strong contextual justification.
