BBFC audience research

Here is the criteria for a film rated at 15, which would be best suited for our thriller film. We decided upon a 15 rating because our film contains misuse of drugs, imitable behaviour e.g. murder and strong language. All these are of the criteria of the 15 rating and therefore any one below the age of 15 are not supposed to be watching the film.

Filming Progress

I have been continuing my filming for the thriller opening with my group and have finished recording my scenes of the police officer in the opening. We have taken great shots during the police scene, for example, an extreme close up of my foot as I walk towards the door. We have continued taking a few takes for each shot to have a selection of takes to choose from. Also, Snehal and Rahul will be finishing of the scene which include Rahul this week, with Snehal directing Rahul.

I have been working on filming for my thriller opening with my group. We have met up to start our production and the main focus this week is on the mise-en-scene, continuity and filming the scenes involving myself in order to be efficient whilst filming. We went to film in Rahul's house and corridor, where most of the opening will take place in. Filming my scenes are nearly complete and next week I will be continuing with filming.
