Welcome to elemental film productions

We are a AS level media group who are creating our media coursework over the next few weeks. Our media coursework is to create an opening to a new film and we decided to make a thriller/action based film. This blog has been made so we can update it with our filming progress, changes and parts of our film.

Our film is called REQUIEM and is about a boy who cannot die.

Thriller Inspiration

The following films helped us to make our storyboard in the thriller style and gave us ideas and themes that we then incorporated into our film opening.


The following films helped us to make our storyboard in the thriller style and gave us ideas and themes that we then incorporated into our film opening.

  
žSe7en was one of the main sources of inspiration for our film opening because it has a good use of camera shots, ideas, suspense and action.
žWe used the style of the opening to se7en in our opening because it gives subtle hints of the plot of the film but without explanation



žCloverfield is different from other thriller/action films because it is all done on the view of a hand held camera. This view may be uninformative to the viewer on how, who, when, what but that is what makes the film even better because it gives us that sense of realism because that’s what citizens would see, do and know if that happened.
