Film Riot- Preparation and Analysis of 'Tell'

On Mr Buckmaster's blog (http://marlboroughmediastudies.blogspot.co.uk/2012/11/how-to-plan-film.html) I watched Film Riots: How to Plan a Movie Shoot! - Script Breakdowns, Schedules and Budgets and How to Storyboard & Schedule Your Film. These two clips showed me all the preparation they went to before filming there short film 'Tell'. They also link in with the work we are doing in class at the moment (preparing our preliminary task) and will help us when we start to prepare for our opening sequence.
Although the short film only had a very small budget of £1000 with very few of the film crew trained, in the end the preparation really paid off. 'Tell' was a really good effective short film. I definitely thought the camera movement/shots and sound were the most effective in the film (the camera shots and movement were so good, constantly making the audience feeling uneasy and the sound also kept building up tension and creating suspense throughout using both diagetic and non-diagetic sounds). Overall it has made me realise just how important preparation is to create an effective and low budget production.
