Upon trading scripts with Matty (who is experimenting with practical effects), we read and analysed each other's scripts and later come to the conclusion to slightly fuse. I will be taking my 'soldier' idea and fusing it with the storyline he written. His script included a lot of practical and special effects, so it made more sense to use his piece. However, one or two of my aspects were missing from his script, so we went over it and altered bits in order for us both to use all the effects we plan on developing.
Taking the new script, me and Matty both made a kind of 'shooting script' but instead of putting in camera shots, we both annotated the script with our effects separately. This allowed us to see where each effect will go in, therefore making it easier to plan the shoot around.
We have yet to decide on location and actors, however, I expect full planning to begin next week. Although this is slightly out of timeframe to what I had hoped, between two of us, we should be able to get it done more efficiently.
Also next week, I have planned out a tech demo with Lee for the green screen. This will allow me to gain knowledge (in the setting up and use) of the green screen and maybe even carry out some simple test shots. This will help when I am planning out the shoot of the final piece. In the next few weeks (before the shoot), I plan on doing some more complex shots with the green screen in order to gain more experience before applying it to a real shoot.
I have now imported the Catterick Garrison footage on the Avid editing suite and have began editing little bits of it (colour grading for example) in order gain some experience in the new software. I plan on editing together a small piece with the footage (1 minute long) and putting it in After Effects in order to start playing with the software.
