Some final changes & music...

Today in media myself and Shazna made some last minute changes & decisions to our film sequence.
We listened to both of the Pendulum songs that I thought would be good for our film opening, and we both agreed that Granite would be the best song to use. We decided on this song over Axle Grinder because the music has an eerie sound to it, particuarly right at the beginning of the song, which we thought would help build up the tension in our film opening. The words in the verse we also thought would be appropriate for our film, as they're talking about 'being watched' and 'getting closer', which go well with the stalker theme of our film opening.

We've also decided to change one of the scenes at the stalkers house. Originally, we were going to have a shot of a door opening which would reveal a room covered in pictures of the person the stalker is following in the woods. The camera would film all of the room and all of the pictures. Talking about it today though, we've decided this may be too hard to get a small enough room that we would be able to completely cover in pictures. We're still keeping the idea of a door opening and there being a number of pictures of the person, but now we're having a door opening, revealing a table in the middle of a room which will have a number of pictures on. The camera will be in the stalker's point of view, and will walk into the room up to the table and look over at all of the pictures. We think this will be an easier way of doing our original idea and that hopefully it will still give the audience the idea that the stalker has an obsession with this girl. We haven't made this change to our storyboards, but when we do our animatic in the next few days we will be putting this new idea in instead of our original idea.
