Title Design

I decided on the name – “The Never End” which is a play on my original title – the never ending lockdown / never ending pandemic. I think this title is a lot more sophisticated and open ended. I wanted the title to be mature as well, I didnt want to over complicate it either…

Supplies

I went out this morning and bought a couple of things for my film. I got some black contact lenses, 2 lights (plus the wires and plugs cause they didn’t come with the light… ) and then a South African flag. I also made a tripod for my phone. I had a tripod for my…

Scene Timing

I’ve tried to plan out the timing for all my scenes better and more accurately and I’ve realised my film is going to be too long. 3 minutes (or 180s is not a lot of time to tell the story I am wanting). Trying to create the illusion of days passing and time flying by…

Search for Apps

I’ve been searching for the best apps to download that’ll help me with my film project. I’ve decided it’s best if I use my phone as the quality is good and I’ll handle it much easier. I think I’m going to download Film Pro but I’m going to keep watching tutorials to see which one…

Presidential Speeches

For my script, I want to have presidential speeches dictating the lockdown and what can and cant be done. Instead of Cyril’s voice, I want to record my own one and distort it, making it sound robotic and inhumane. Luckily for me its super easy to find Cyril’s speeches because they are all published in…

Story Boarding

He is my storyboard for Event 5. I’ve refined my idea lot more and have a much clearer direction to head in. The story board seams like a lot but its actually a lot of the same scenes repeated (obviously when I film Im not going to use the same video, I’ll shoot it again…

Storyboarding

Initial Storyboard: Updated Storyboard:I want my film to be a cinematic montage, showing days and time passing by. I want to show how my main character has spent the lockdown and how his mental state deteriorates and he begins to get lonelier & lonelier, and sadder & sadder as time passes. There will be a…
