Risk assessment

For our risk assessment we had to consider the danger of working within an abandoned warehouse. We did not fully know what would be inside until we got there. There was debris covering parts of the floor that we had to clear in order to make it safe for us to work.

We wanted to use a shot of driving down the main road, however we thought that holding the camera out of the window would be too dangerous. We then tied the camera down inside the car, which worked better. The footage ended up being unused anyway.

Storyboards

This is the storyboard for our trailer. We sat and thought of which shots we could incorporate into the footage, as well as any good ideas or effects we thought would emphasize the downsides of drug addiction. We understand that the actual trailer may not turn out as we have planned, however we do have a basis for when we start filming

Poster mock up

After doing my research on other film posters, I decided to choose this design layout. I think the simple text on a relevant image will work quite well, depending on how good the image turns out.

The simplicity of this draft will act as a metaphor for the 'empty' life so often associated with drugs. This also emphasises the negative morals we have chosen to show due to drug addiction. In my personal opinion, I think that posters which are very simple in layout and content, especially those that do not give away much information about the film are more effective than detailed ones with bright colours.
