Hope There's Someone

I have made a music video of Zoey and her friends to put on my website when I make it.

Social Networking

I have decided to link my coursework to a variety of different social medias.

I am going to link each of these to my website.

Funeral Bell

After much searching I have found the church bell I am going to use in my Teaser Trailer.

Possible Locations

There are two different locations near my house which I think would work well for the scenes where Zoeys friends are performing the seance.

The first location is in the fields behind my house. As it is a secluded area it would work well for these scenes as Zoeys friends would not want to be disturbed. 

The second possible location is the green outside my house. The only problem with this location is that it is very close to houses and there is a chance people may come out to see what we are doing. I could easily avoid this by informing my neighbours that I am planning to film so they don't disturb me. This is a better location as it is literally a few steps from my house, whereas the other location is a good 15 minute walk, and would be difficult with all the equipment and in the dark.

As I really like both the possible locations, I might film the scenes at both places and decide before editing which one I think works better.

Possible Trailer Music Part II

Another option for the trailer music is using an instrumental version of a song. This would work well as it would now draw focus from what is happening in the scene like the lyrics of a song might.

One option is the piano version of Birdys cover of the Bon Iver song "Skinny Love". This would work well as the song is slow and beautiful.

Another option is the piano version of "Down" by Jason Walker

Alternatively, I could use the piano version of "9 Crimes" by Damien Rice.

Another option is the piano version of "California King Bed" by Rihanna.

Finally, the piano cover of "Ave Maria" by Beyonce would also be a good choice, as it is slow and is a popular choice for funerals.

Possible Trailer Music

I am planning to use two different pieces of music in my teaser trailer.

There are a few possible choices for the funeral scenes, which take up about 30% of the final piece.



As soon as I heard this song I thought it would be a brilliant choice for my trailer, as it is slow and has sad lyrics, such as;
My love, leave yourself behind
Beat inside me, leave you blind
My love, you have found peace
You were searching for release

This song was used in a funeral scene in the TV show, "The Vampire Diaries", which i thought worked really well and gave the scene the right atmosphere.

As this song was written after the death of the artists Grandfather, it is a good option to use in my film.

The sound of the piano and the tone of the artists voice make this song sound sad and reminiscent, which would suit a funeral well.

Practising Zoeys Makeup

i am planning to practice the zombie makeup for Zoey after school today, I am going to video record and take pictures of what I do in order to post them on here.

I have watched a number of tutorials on youtube to teach myself how to properly complete this look, and will be using some of the tips I have found to make Zoeys makeup look as realistic as possible.
