Idea 1.)Doctors Surgery: We are thinking of creating scene set in a doctors surgery where a patient recieves some bad news from the doctor.
Idea 2.)A police Station: We are considering filming the scene in a police station where a person exchanges dialouge with the receptionist.
Idea 3.)Train Journey: For this idea, we are considering doing a train journey where a passenger rushes to get on the train, sits down and exchanges conversation with another passenger.
We have decided to chose the Doctors Surgery idea with a patient recieving bad news from a doctor. We started planning out the idea by drawing a story board of the different shots we would use and how they would peice together.
Location - We set our primilary task in Mr Kennedys office as it was similar to a waiting room and a docotors surgery with plain walls, a desk and two chairs.
Props - The props we used to make the shots seem more realastic were a desk, chair, paperwork and maybe a skeleton model or a biology poster from the science department to help give effect.
Costume - The Doctor played by Mr Zaidi, is wearing smart clothes to show his character and his occupation, and the patient played by Amy Thorburn will wear casual normal clothes.
Dialogue - The dialogue used will be short and simple by using lines such as " Is it bad news?" and "Yes, its bad". This helpes create suspense and focus more on the camera angles in the task rather than the acting.
First of all, we had to understand the 180 degree rule, therefore i went on youtube and found these three videos which have helped us.

The 180 degree rule in a guideline in film making that states two characters in the same scene should always have the same left/right relationship to each other. If the camera passes over the imaginary line connecting the two characters, it is called crossing the line. The new shot from the opposite side is called the reverse angleStory Board! :)
In the video, we will use Amy Thorburn as the patient and Mr Zaidie as the doctor, giving her some bad news. The first shot will be of Amy nervously waiting in the waiting room, shot from a high angle perspective, making her seem vulnerable. The camera will then do a Cut- in shot of Amy, playing with her hands and biting her nails. adding to the effect she is nervous, and waiting to recieve the news.
