Linked production- Gathering information

I had to gather information about all of the things that I wanted to include i my DVD cover. The types of things that I researched for are logos, pictures and font styles.

I also had a look at some crime drama blurbs so that I can get a sense of what I should write in my blurb in order for it to relate to a crime drama.

Some of the examples that I looked at were The Wire, CSI and The Bill.

Filming Check List

• Finish filming
• Finish editing (clips trimmed, transitions and effects)
• Add music
• Add voice overs
• Add credits
• Add station ident
• Add graphics (if required)

Re-booking the equiptment

We had to Re-book the equipment for the following week which was on the 16th of January and just hoped that the weather conditions would get better so that we can start filming our drama.

Cancellation of Filming due to snow

Due to the severe icy and snow conditions the filming had to be cancelled as it was dangerous and as a group we felt that it wouldn't be appropriate if we filmed in these conditions.

Creating a Company logo "FOR"

This is the finalised logo for our company. The "FOR" stands for, Face of Reality which is the series name for our crime drama.

Booking of equiptment

As a group we feel that we are now ready to start filming and so we have decided that we are going to do so straight after the Christmas Holidays and have booked out all of the equipment for then.

Cast for our Crime Drama is;

• We have 4 main characters.
• Shaistah’s friend will play the DCI
• Shaistah will play the murdered girl
• Hamzah will play the killer
• Hamzah's friend Rizzy will play the Pathologist that pockets the piece of evidence.

Although there’s only 4 main characters we will also possibly have another 2/3 people to play as the DCI.

Deciding on the series and episode name

After alot of thought and talking to people as a group we have finally come up a suitable series name and also a episode name that the whole group agrees on.

The Series name that we came up with is "Face of Reality", and the episode name that we came up with is "Silent Murder".
