Research and Planning: Magazine Inspiration

I am struggling to think of stories for my magazine so I put 'Empire covers' into google and looked at various stories. As the Oscars are coming up I may mention them and include the films nominated in 2013 and I will also focus on new releases.

Research and Planning: Pictures From Another Source For My Poster

These are the pictures that were used in the shed scene and I decided that I wanted to use them in my poster to exploit the stalker element of the film. Some were taken by myself, some are taken by friends and some are stills from filming so it looks as though the villain is infatuated by the victim. In the post below you can see what I have done with these pictures on my poster.

Research and Planning: Filming 28/1/13

Yesterday we filmed the climax of our trailer at the car park. I think that the footage looks really good however it took a few attempts to get it right as the scene involves the villain putting the victim and a car boot and we wanted to do it safely however we wanted to look realistic. The footage below shows what we did. Also, there was multiple problems when filming- the first car park we wanted to use was unsafe so we decided to move to a different one where the traffic wardens told us that they were locking up before the closing time. Thankfully we managed to get everything we needed to film however we were unable to take pictures for my film poster due to the camera not working and limited time.
