Series Title: Face of Reality!
Episode name: Silent Murder
The policeofficer has identified a dead body of a young girl, in the lonley woods. Who is she? What happened? How did she get here? As we go along we are taken into a blurred flashback in which we get a brief undeerstanding of what went on just moments before the body was found.
Back to the crime scene, pathologists arrive to investigate the murder whn something strange seems to be happening. Far in the distance, through the cold-blooded killers eyes or maybe even a unknown witness we notice a pathologist, who may just be linked with this SILENT MURDER.

Initial Idea CHANGED.
After pitching our idea to the class we wernt to sure if we wanted to carry on with the same sequence as we realised that shooting the scene would be quiet difficult and we would have 2 find a suitable setting in which too many people are also not present.
therefore we decided a new storyline for our sequence.
our new storyline was to start of with showing a dead body on the floor in a lonely woodland, we see the area is surronded with crime investigation tape and a policeofficer is investigating on the matter.
This then leads to a flashback of what happend.
Setting: Woodland-Cannon-hill park
Costumes: Poiceofficer- Smart clothing, Pothologist- White lab coats
Props: fake blood, braclet, costumes, investigation tape etc.

Pitching the idea to the class.
As a group we shared our 1st initial idea with the class "Couple meeting up on a date".
We created a brsinstorm on the board and listed all our roles, and talked about the use of mise-en-scene (setting, props, costumes etc.) in the sequence.
The picthing was very helpfull as we had positive feedback from the class and were told ways in which we could improve.

Crime Drama: Opening sequence.
Part of our media project we are now told to create a 3minute opening sequence for a crime drama.
the sequence should last up to 3Minutes therefore we have to make it as interesting and eye-catching as possible so people viewing it would want to watch the whole episode.
We have come up with to initial ideas:
-"couple meeting up on adate"
-"Silent murder of a girl in the woods"

Talking About The Main Idea. "Couple meeting up 4 a date"
As a group we had first decided to make our crime drama about a girl and boy who are in love and are going to meet up on a date.
However as the scene goes on we see that the boy unfortunately gets attacked by a group of youths who by misfortune ends up dead.
As i am the leader of mi group which means i have to guide all the group members as to what they shall be doing
Hamza: In charge of the editing.
Lutfa: In charge of sound
Louis: In charge of the cinematography.
