Today we had a tutorial with Annie. We discussed what we had done so far and how we were getting on as a group and in our roles. Mark said that he thought it might be restricted when exploring sound design when doing a comedy piece. I do understand where Mark is coming from, although I still think that he can get experience recording good quality sound whether it be in atmosphere tracks or conversations. I think Mark will enjoy using foley to get sounds such as keys, footsteps, banging, creaking, etc. He is very dedicated to his work!
I also brought up that our story might not be told in terms of the plot points given to us by Annie. I think we’ve all been confused with the plot points and wanted Annie to explain them to us in more detail so that we could fit our story to them. Unfortunately our story wasn’t quite hitting the plot points exactly so we had to meet after the tutorial to discuss this. We are now all clear on this, they are as follows:
We see Jack roll out of bed late and go through the montage of him teaching the different subjects
Inciting Incident – Jack meets Nicole at parents evening
Plot Point 1 – Jack begins to mark Shaun’s grades down so that his mother has to come in again
Midpoint – Jack realises that this isn’t the way to go about it and plucks up the courage to ask Nicole on a date
Plot Point 2 – Jack goes in to work to find that Shaun has been moved school due to his poor performance
Jack goes back to his unhappy life
Resolution – Nicole comes in to the school to pick up Shaun’s things and agrees to a date with Jack!
We have arranged to meet up on Tuesday to begin filming. We will be filming the following scenes:
Jack waking up late in the morning
The changed Jack – ironing his shirt, making an effort etc
The car scene – Jack having unprotected sex in the back of his car
The pub scene – Jack not himself in the pub with a friend
The PE scene – in the field
Although we have decided to film these films we don’t have a proper filming schedule, so hopefully we’ll keep track of time!
