Warner Bros!!!



I went to the warner brothers studio in October of last year. We went on the harry potter tour, where we got to witness all the action first hand. We saw props, costume, filming techniques, special effects and many more interesting things.

History of the Warner Brothers studio

The fully integrated, broad-based company stands at the forefront of every aspect of the entertainment industry from feature film, television and home entertainment production and worldwide distribution to DVD and Blu-ray, digital distribution, animation, comic books, product and brand licensing and broadcasting.

The harry potter tour!

Here are some photographs I took when looking around the Harry potter warner brothers studio tour! It gave me loads of ideas in terms of subtle make up and costume changes that could improve our thriller film.











Our calendar!

We created a filming schedule so we could stay organised and plan efficiently.

case study of Alfred Hitchcock


Sir Alfred Joseph Hitchcock, KBE (13 August 1899 – 29 April 1980) was an English film director and producer. Often nicknamed "The Master of Suspense", he pioneered many techniques in the suspense and psychological thriller genres. 

Hitchcock directed more than fifty feature films in a career spanning six decades. Often regarded as the greatest British filmmaker, he came first in a 2007 poll of film critics in Britain's Daily Telegraph, which said: "Unquestionably the greatest filmmaker to emerge from these islands, Hitchcock did more than any director to shape modern cinema, which would be utterly different without him. His flair was for narrative, cruelly withholding crucial information (from his characters and from us) and engaging the emotions of the audience like no one else."

Camera equipment

Here are some photos amber and I took to show what filming equipment we will need in order to complete our film to highest quality.
We will be using a DSLR to get clear shots, a boom mic to capture clear dialogue, an sd card to store the footage and a tripod to keep the filming steady.

Risk assessment form


 This is our risk assessment form. Here we have noted down anything that could be a hazard to us, our actors or the general members of the public. We will then add to our hazards when we first start filming in case we come across anymore risks and precautions need to be put in to place
