Changing the title.

After completing the planning process and thinking about how and when we are going to film we have decided to change our film title from "The Conductor" to "Tracks of Damnation". We decided to change the name because we thought that the new name fitted in  well with the genre and subgenre that we have selected. We also thought that the name "The  Conductor" wasn't as creepy and conventionally what you would expect from a Horror or a Slasher film name.

Storyboard

Team Meeting/Discussion.

When we were finalising our storyboard we decided to film our discussion about things that we should and shouldn't include in our opening. We thought that filming this would be a good idea because it enables us to go back and watch the videos to remind ourselves of our ideas in that discussion.

Target Audience focus group.

These are videos of my group and myself asking our focus group questions relating to our film opening and the genre and sub genre that we have selected.

Audition Videos

We asked our actors to audition for the film to make sure that we had made the right decision in selecting these people. We videoed our actors so we could look over them later and discuss if we are making the right decision in hiring them. We asked our actors to improvise and say a few lines in their character roles. We decided that we didn't need an audition for the antagonist as the part doesn't require any dialogue. We selected him due to his physical build.
Here are their audition films:

This is malachi's audition for the role of jock\thug.

This is Sophie's Audition for the role of Drama Queen.

This is Edward's Audition for the role of Nerd.
