Individual Possible Problems

For our shoot I tried to work on certain things to help me to be a better group member and to enhance my contribution to avoiding the possible problems of filming. These were:

• Be organised - Charging up equipment, bringing all equipment etc.
• Bring Props - remember to seek out and bring important things for our shoot
• Be a good/serious actor - trying not to laugh and trying my hardest to act
• Helping with other actors - so they are happy and not complaing/suffering in silence
• Communication - being in constant communication with everyone involved

Overall everyone in the group contributed well on both the test and the real shooting weekends and the only problem we thought we could not solve was the weather but the rain was not too bad in the end and conditions were fine enough to enable us to shoot.

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas Opening Sequence

For me this film was a sort of inspiration for our idea. In the opening scene the characters are established well as druggies and I believe there are many interesting techniques used in this film that i believe we could try and adapt to our own project. I really like the narrated voice-over throughout the film, as Johnny Depp's hallucinations are explained to us although we do not always see them ourselves.

There is a lot of eerieness created by the weird characters that I belive could also work well in a thriller, since it could create a lot of enigma and suspense around our main character.

I really like the very last shot of this clip. It is a Close-up of Johnny Depp's face and it actually looks quite scary because his character is on so many drugs. Therefore I think with darker lighting and possibly some sinister music, this could really work well in the Thriller genre.
