Transition research
After I done the rough cut survey the audience said one of our least effective parts was, the transitions so i decided to research more into transitions in films opening sequences to get the best outcome for our own.

Target Audience
Target audience
The target audience for our film will be males and females aged 15-25. I picked this age category because we will give it a aged 15 certificate. The genre of the film is defiantly target more to males as males are more likely to watch thriller films and horror and women are more likely to watch comedy and romance films and even rom-coms. We decided that the demographic of our films opening sequence should be working class to middle class citizens. This is because we made the characters in our films opening sequence all fit in that category. So aiming it at this type of demographic could mean that we will target that kind of citizen and are more likely to get a higher budget because they are more likely to pay more out to see our film.

Travel Destination plan for our trip to London.
As part of Blind Feline’s location analysis, we had to
ensure that our footage up in London would be spot on and accurate, in order to
do this we developed a plan to ensure that we would beat the crowds who may put
the production at risk.
Firstly we had to ensure
that the weather on the day would be appropriate and therefore not jeopardise
the production with rain or heavy winds that would make the quality of filming
be made a substantially more. So we checked on the reliable source- http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/2643743 to enable that this risk of torrential weather would
invade our day of filming up London.

With this very Basic plan
that we used that enabled us the standard time getting their on the train, but
then additional time finding the destinations we intended to film at being the
metropolitan University and Virtue offices. With a 2 hour 50 minute period to
film a very vital scene in the production; plenty of time to make adjustments
to the filming with various cuts and additional shots being added to make the
day worthwhile and beneficial. However this time frame let us get out and eat
and still make it to Liverpool Street before the crowds arrived in the rush
hour, therefore keeping the journey safer with less risks from occurring in the
journey home.
Health and Safety
During our production task, we realised that we must
consider the possible hazards we could be implicating to ourselves as well as
the surrounding public who may be at risk.
We see in the first initial scene where we are filming in a
science lavatory courtesy of Beauchamp’s High school. In this scene Blind
Feline Productions (BFP) had to consider whether the chemicals we was using
would be a danger to the following students that would be in the lavatory the
following lesson, With this in mind we asked a science technician to supervise
us putting the certain science equipment out and mixing specific chemicals to
create a formula, to prevent us making any possible harm to ourselves and
others.
The pivotal scene in our casting was on our
travels to London to use an office in a very Historical looking building to add
a sense of tradition that we realized when researching the best location for
this actual scene. In our travels, we knew that travelling to the capital would
cause many possible Hazards with the busy crowds and atmosphere that would be
present in addition to the form of travel on the tube in the peak times (so
that way we could get the ideal atmosphere we needed to make our footage
evident of the London scenery). So with this in mind we all stuck together when
travelling and had a map to navigate around near the Liverpool street location.
Which came with the fine detailed planning of making sure that all the
locations we wanted were in scale with one another. To prevent as much
travelling as possible therefore preventing as much risk. The small details
such as crossing the congested roads could have been seen as a very dangerous
risk to all of us in the group, with this in consideration. Blind Feline
realised that we would have to cross the ever increasing congestion in the city
by using the various crossings and moving with a large flow of people. Also
when filming the footage outside the University, which is in a very congested
part of the city. We also had to take into account the consideration the
welfare of the surrounding people to make sure that they were aware of our
presence with various signs signifying that filming was in progress, therefore
making sure that we wasn’t interrupted or was thought to be doing something
wrong with the authorities that they may well think could we were putting the
general public at risk.|
This was an
example of a various sign that we used into our production to make people aware
of our presence when filming in public stricken areas
