For my preliminary task I decided that I wanted to think of a storyline that would be original, and that I would be happy with once I had edited all the footage together.
Two friends are talking over Skype, one boy and one girl. The girls room is quite messy very relaxed and has personal traits that carry out throughout the room, including posters, pictures of her and her relations. The boys room is neat but still portrays his personal characteristics. A post appears as the boy is scrolling through Facebook, it talks about a new youtube channel launched today and has been live streaming for 6 hours. It has been streaming different people in the rooms like a fly on the wall. The channel name appears as "Time to play". They ignore the post and continue talking. The girl then gets a tweet about the youtube channel, it says "@'HER-NAME' Is that you on the stream !!!!!" She sees this and then decides to check out the channel. As they both go on the channel they are surprised to see her room, at first she thinks that its just a image, but as it continues they can see her moving and talking, she panics whilst looking nervous. As the boy tries to help her find the camera he continues talking to her as the youtube channel is tracking the whole thing. She finally finds the camera and blocks the lens. The stream goes black but then continues using another angle in her room, she takes longer too find this one as it is heavily hidden within her room. Eventually she finds the camera , throws on the floor and stamps on it breaking the stream. Finally the camera switches to another room of someone else. Suddenly a message pops up on the screen "you shouldn't have done that". She replies multiple times in a nervous panic, but there is no reply. She starts panicking even more and so does here friend who has also received the message. They talk again in there nervous state, and then suddenly both there lights flash simultaneously 3 times. They are suddenly sparked into a flustered state,and another message pops up from the same private number, "TIME TO PLAY".
I believe using this storyline will help me use an array of camera skills, shot types and movements. Also i can use lighting efficiently and effectively as well as implimenting my continuity editing rules. I also took inspiration from the film 'unfriended' so can also use camera shots and editing skills from that.
