Filming and Why we chose who to be who

The past week we have unfortunately not been able to film as we have been revising and not been able to make contact with Ahmed and Alan. But we are filming the rest of the scenes tomorrow lunch and after school i will then be editing them after school as well.

The characters
Bella:
I was chosen to be Bella as I have similar hair and I have read the Twilight Saga the most. To me Twilight is a very inspiring book by the choices of grammar and punctuation Stephenie Meyer uses in her books.
Stephenie Meyer generally decides to focus on the genres of love and action as in a recent survey it has shown women are better at writing romantic novels than men as we have a more visual side of things. Stephenie Meyer uses the loose sentence technique in her writing giving her a more unique style of writing to other authors. Also Stephenie tends to use age appropriate language in her novels for example if she was writing for a toddler she would use language like 'the cuddly, fluffy blue cat' but as her stories are aimed at  young adults she uses better vocabulary but as she knows teenagers read her books she did not use a single word of bad language. This really inspired my in my own pieces of writing as I like to write little novels in my spare time as it feels like it is taking my emotions out of me like a flowing river.

Edward:
Ahmed was chosen to be Edward due to his acting skills we knew he has a lot of potential as an actor and that he would be able to pull off such a large character. Ahmed is very imaginative which is really helpful in Twilight as we are trying our best to refer it to the movie 'Vampire's Suck', his imagintivity ranges from small things like props in the background to funny lines included in the movie.

Jacob:
Alan was chosen to be Jacob as he is the Clown of the group and not afraid to make a fool of himself on camera like the rest of us. Alan also has many other roles like Charlie, Bella's father, The car driver, which nearly crashes into Bella, and Carlisle, Edward's father but he may not be included in the movie.

Alice:
Seetara was chosen to be Alice as Seetara is the 'Wise' person of the group as Alice can see the future we needed somebody that is crazy and a secret genius and we knew seetara had this in her.

Rosalie:
Faiza was chosen tom be Rosalie as Rosalie has a fairly large part in the film as she has a sad story behind her pretty face and the story was what made her a vampire, Rosalie wishes she wasn't a vampire as they are not allowed to have children and everybody around her dies whilst she stays young and sweet.

Jessica:
Ashleen was chosen to be Jessica and Esme as they are both quite and simple characters and as Ashleen is fairly quite we thought these characters would be perfect for her. Jessica and Bella near the beginning of the  movie become very close as Bella has just moved from Phoenix, Arizona.

We hope that the characters we have chosen are perfect for each other if not we may need to do some last minute changes to the casting of Twilight.

Below is the trailer of the film that inspired us to film Twilight.

Day 3: Film Basics (Sets and Filming)

We have completed nearly all of the filming but when we re-watched them we cannot hear me and Ashleen talking as the atmosphere is so loud.
Sets:
We have finally decided on the official sets for our filming:
  • The scene that includes Bella (Me) finding out that Edward (Ahmed) is a vampire will be held on the back field or in the heath.
  • The scene that includes Bella (Me) sleeping and Edward (Ahmed) watching me whilst I sleep and I then wake up to see him in my room but when I turn on the light he disappeared, this scene will be held in the medical room's bed.
  • The following next scenes will be held in a classroom; The canteen scene where Jessica (Ashleen) and Bella (Me) talking about the Cullen Family and the staring competition between Bella and Edward.

  • The scenes will be filmed by Seetara as she is usually the spare character or Wassim if he would like to tag along with the group.

Day 2: Filming has officialy began

Today me, Ahmed, Alan, Faiza, Seetara, and Ashleen will be starting to film all of our scenes.
Today we will also be taking some photos just like the photo on the left and the bottom.
We look foward to filming our scenes as this is the first official time that we can perform our written scenes.
Seetara has a fairly big role today as not only will she be playing Alice she will be our camera girl for the scenes she is not in.

Film Basics (Characters)

We have finally decided who will be who for the Twilight parody remake. I will be Bella as I know the film the most out of the group, Ahmed will be Edward as Alan did not want to be the main character, Alan has many little roles as well as being Jacob (The were-wolf), he will be playing characters such Charlie (The dad), Carlisle (Edward's dad), the car driver etc. Faiza is being Rosalie, Seetara will be Alice and Ashleen will be Esme and Jessica.
Me, Ahmed  and Alan have the largest roles of the group but that doesn't mean we will be doing more work we will all equally share the work out.

Day 1 of official blogging

Day 1 of official blogging:-
We are all in 102y updating our blogs, Faiza is unfortunatley not in today making us unable to complete some work so me, Seetara, Alan, Ahmed and Ashleen are on our mission to start making the script for scenes 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. Seetara has finally got a wig from Miss Leslie which is black, short and has a front fringe for Alice, and Alan has a blond short haired wig to be Jasper. The last thing we need to buy is a plain white t-shirt so we can draw an eight-pack on it in a black marker pen for Alan's character Jacob.

Vampire's Suck Inspiration

Video would not show will try and edit so the video will show another time it may just be the website.

The film that inspired me, Seetara, Faiza , Ashleen, Ahmed  and Alan.The film is very funny and makes a romantic film turn into a gut renching comedy, nothing is better than a funny romance film.

Script Making

Scene 1 for twilight is written and waiting to be filmed just need to organise dates and times with the twilight family :)
