Beginning the task for our spin on the remake of The Breakfast Club Title Sequence, we were one team member short which made us unable to do some scenes from the film, including the introduction of the "jock" and the "geek". We would have been able to portray them through costume but it wouldnt have been possible to have all characters presents in the hall scene of the opening, so we made do with what characters we could portray, being the "brat", the "fruitloop" and the "bad boy".
I feel we have portrayed the opening of The Breakfast Club to best of our ability, shooting some really good replacas, such as the clock on the wall and the cafeteria, also adding our own additions of the newspaper like in the original movie, but calling it "Islington High" to appeal more to the area we are in and therefore our audience.
If we were to re-do this task I would think to bring it alot more destinctive props and costume to portray the characters to the best of our ablity to the audience. As well as this I would take into full consideration of the filming location and film the scenes that require as little as no one else present in the room first or before it could become busier. For example filming the scenes of the students walking onto the school premasis and them all in the "detention room" as apposed to the still shots, that required no sound, ie the board of information.
After this process I have learnt that when filming Mise En Scene is the most difficult to control without organised help, including lighting. Natural lighting can not only be very unflattering but uncontrollable, ruining shots by causing unwanted shadowing.
