Preliminary Exercise

Production logo for our group

Before actually deciding what our group wanted to call our own production logo some research was conducted into other logos which we could use as an examples for our own. After looking through a range we found that a lot of the titles have puns to them, like how 'Reelium' on the right is a play on the gas 'Helium' which then goes with the logo's image of the film reel that is acting as a hot air balloon which Helium would be used to inflate so it could fly.

After some discussion we as a group decided to call our production company 'Pork Pie Productions' because we enjoyed the alliteration of the three 'P's and we had a good idea for what we could then link in with the logo. As with the other examples shown here, we decided to include the image of film reels and the actual film in ours, which works well with the fact that Pork Pies are round so would be easy enough to make with minimal photoshop skills that the group has.

Something else that we noticed as common in all three of our example production logos is that the name of the company is always underneath the logo picture. In 'Grow production' and 'Locomotive production' logos the text featured is all in capitals, whereas on 'Reelium' the whole titles are in lower case letters.

Music

Using the free music website jamendo.com I went through the 'action' music tag in order to find songs that would fit into the genre of our film.

Going through the tag I then listened carefully to the different songs available and the ones which I thought were the best into a playlist so then as a group we could listen to them all once editing is done and narrow it down to the ones which are the most relevant.

As of right now we are particularly fond of Speed of Sound and Paranoia.

New risk assessment

During filming we changed one of of locations so we no longer did any filming in Locke park, instead we filmed in Saint Mary's church, new burial ground, churchfields therefore we had to alter our risk assessment a little.
