First production meeting

For our first meeting, we got together as a group and discussed what we wanted our thriller to be about. We started by talking about whether we wanted things like a McGuffin, Graphic match, enigma or cliffhanger.
In the end we decided we would use 2 out of the 4 so we included a McGuffin and cliffhanger. We went for these two because they were the ones that would have the most effect on the audience and we knew we could really make good use of them to create an intense scene in our opening. 


Once the genre convention we decided we then chose what our McGuffin would be and what our cliffhanger would be. Our group then decided how each scene would go and the positions of each group member for example what part they we playing and what they were doing to contribute in the editing of the thriller.  After this, we started our storyboards which can be seen on another post, these were done to help our filming process flow easily and helped us to know what we were meant to be filming, the camera angle,style of shot and how long each shot would last for. We knew that if we made our storyboards detailed, it would help with the filming process and help everyone to know what they are meant to do.
