Firstly for week 13 will have no progress of our development of our BSR film opening because of exams and mocks.After this we continued with our progress and wanted to start filming on the weekend 15th Sunday but during that timetable we encountered issues that held back the filming schedule and production of our film.When we arrived at the designated area for our filming on the bus we encountered some people that wanted our equipment and pursued us down and because of this we couldn't film because of these complications instead we waited in a public area most of the time and waited for them to leave or loose them and after a couple hours of doing other things because we couldn't film we eventually took another bus route home and left and because of this our entire filming has been pushed back and this needs to be addressed for the future so this problem won't ever happen again.
Our first solution is that we plan to fix early of week 15 to get as much of it as done as possible because of the delays encountered and we plan to film in a different location entirely because of what has happened we also plan to bring more people as more support the better because last time there was only four of use and originally there was six of us but only four of us could make it.It overall should be a better experience because there are less people around and its closer to us and theres more of us so the chances of it happening again are less than before,One issue that we may encounter is the time as when we finish school the time will be 15:20pm and it gets darker very early and this can be a problem and therefore we must film as early as possible to avoid any issues.

Production Log Week 12
This week we had to create and design our graphics and choose the right music for our BSR film opening sequence.Firstly the music that was chosen was by Faheem and our main aspirations and goals was to have a calm and ambient music and it contrasted to the picture that we will be showing this will be because it will enhance an uncomfortable feeling for the viewer giving a sense of fear to the audience which will help mow the audience feel for our characters and the events taking place and this helps build emotional attachment.
Four ur graphics we decided to give a visual representation of what is happening on screen which is a dull concrete based alleyways and underpasses and because of this the graphics take this shape and form by having a very bold font with rough edges and even 3D with a concrete texture to give an effect of dark but also realistic tone to the opening that is being depicted.What we also decided to have is what the text will be displaying such as director and editor and many helpers on the production.Most of the titles for the opening sequence would also be based on the lower left side of the screen so the viewer can still see the film going on in the background (which is an super imposed graphic) and the only exception is the films title and the institutional logo that will be displayed.
Overall with h decisions that we have chosen for our BSR opening most of them help keep a theme and genre and the music and graphics help portray a lot of these conventions of what makes a BSR film and this will help improve the verisimilitude of the opening sequence.Which will help enhance the experience of the audience watching the opening sequence and quality of the finished product.

Graphics for our BSR
Today i started designing and creating the graphics for our BSR opening and there are specific design treats that we wanted to include such as the use of concrete and bold text that is in 3D and this reflects the convention of a BSR film and specially our film as its set in a lot of dark concrete alleyways and we also decided to have ur text on the bottom left of our screen because then it isn't too distracting for the audience and they can see what is happening as the text will be over the footage apart from the institutional logo and title of our film and this so it gives the title and the creators of the film full attention when it appears and gives a sense of importance.We also included a vast amount of production lists and cast names for our opening graphics such as Director and many others to show who helped in the production or our BSR opening sequence.
Music for our BSR
This week we decide to start finding music for our BSR opening and the music had to follow guidelines to be appropriate to be used for our final product.Firstly it had to be calm but also intense as we wanted to give a sense of unease and tension for the audience to give a better illusion and effect for them as it makes them feel the emotion and power that is being used in the opening sequence.Another thing we wanted is that we had to make sure the music is royalty free(copyright free) so we don't get any copyright claims for the content we produce which will cause problems that we will have to face in the.
The song here is very ambient and calming the opposite of what an audience would expect from a smash mouth and "dark" BSR opening these expectations could be used to manipulate the audience really putting them off of making the effect of what is happening on screen have a larger magnitiude compared to the screen being paired with a generic action audio track in the background of the scene.
BSR's being generically and commonly known for this darkness I feel that this music would help emphasise the intensity of the opening sequence which may not have been recognised otherwise the thought of the intensity of this darkness will be taken out of the back of the readers mind and will be bought to attention.
This soundtrack also conveys similar themes to the other song and is built in a similar way, however, this song also uses more modern audio techniques such as a sythesiser and scratches similar to that of a dj's set, this music I feel will help to adress this modern vibe to the movie due to how modern the track sounds.
It also had this subtle sounding of sadness which is subtle enough to be ignored by the audience, however, I feel that in my opinion that a track like this may be used more in the recognition and repair part of the film close to a resolve in the film as the music has that feeling of hope within it, however, in contrast to this on screen we are seeing a much darker story this will certainly put off the audience. Especially since targeting a younger audience from 16-24 which have grown up with this sort of music they will be able to relate to the music much more easily.
This soundtrack is very continuous throughout the whole track it makes it much more easy in post production to edit the soundrack and stop and start the song when the song is like this. Similar to the first song, "Calm", it is a much more ambient and calming song even though the equilibrium of the movie had been unbalanced. It will definitely succeed in offputting the viewer as the audio does not match what the audience are seeing on screen.
The soundtrack is very similar throughout and does not have many changes this will help as our opeing sequence should try to be as simple as possible to draw the audience in.
