New Storyboard

We have made a new storyboard for our short film "Ragged 2wice" recently. This one is more accurate and a lot more organised than the one we made before.

Character Sketches

I have made Character Sketches of the Characters to star in my film who have dialogues.

Kamran: Kamran Shahnawaz is playing the role of Kamran. He is 19 years old. He is skinny ,has a more ectomorphic physique and wears contact spectacles. He has short , curly hair. His pants are tucked in to give him a more geeky/nerdy look in the short film. In "Ragged 2wice" , Kamran faces difficulties while adapting to the first day at his college. He then wakes up in his mom's car and realises that he had been dreaming all along. Next , he finds the bully from his dream in real life.
In the film , Kamran has been shown as an innocent person. The face-cut of Kamran Shahnawaz motivated us to actually make him star him in Ragged 2wice and we thought that he would be the best actor to star Kamran in our film. He is shown shy , well mannered and low voiced in our film. He is also tensed about his first day at college throughout the short film. Kamran is about 5 feet 8 inches tall.







Bully Leader: The role of the Bully Leader is played by Uzair Sohail. He is the main antagonist in the film. He is about 5 feet 11 inches tall. and has a steady muscle mass. He is taller than Kamran which is generally a trait that bullies usually carry. He has already sprouted a full beard/clean shave while Kamran hasn't. This gives Uzair a more "stern" and "bully" look throughout the film. He is also 19 years old. His smile is clever and sinister which depicts that of bullies(when they think of ideas etc). He is shown as a naughty and a "leader" of his group throughout. In the film ,Uzair rags Kamran with his partners , he then meets the Kamran in the last scene of the film. He appears in the second , third and seventh scene of the film. He has two other partner bullies but in the film , he being the leader , does all the talking.







Principal: Ms.Humera Javed plays the role of the principal in our film.She is the third antagonist in our film. She is middle aged , female, and has a very strict personality in the film. She also possesses the commanding and stern personality that of Mr.Zaman. She has a formal attitude and personality throughout the film. She wears Pakistani Shalwar Kameez throughout the film. She appears in only the fifth scene of the film. She clearly does not have a liking for the students who break the rules and regulations of the college and is very strict in what punishments students are to be given if found guilty.







Mother: Fatmah Abdul Qayyum will be playing the role of Kamran's mother in our film. Female , 19 years of age. The reason that we chose Fatmah to play the role of the mother was that firstly , she knows how to drive well. Secondly , she is a perfect fit regarding the appearance and other aspects that a conventional mother needs to have. Although not important , since she will be appearing only in the first and the sixth scenes throughout the film, her height is 5 feet 1 inches. The very welcoming and positive aspect of Fatmah is that she has a very positive attitude towards acting and is cooperative just as well as our other characters are. She will be wearing the conventional Pakistani Shalwar Kameez , which is the national dress of our country. It is common for a Pakistani mother to drive and drop her children to school , which is why we chose the job to be done by a mother, rather than a father.








Teacher : Mr.S.B Zaman was suppose to act for us but due to last minute changes he was unable to act for us. We do not have a substitute at the moment but we will have one in the near future.

New Location Pictures

On  26th January , me and Andrew referred to the location research. We thought of creating a more visual mindset on the location of the film we had planned for "Ragged 2wice". We just had to see the location for ourselves and make sure that the location is suitable , fits perfectly in the shots we want. Here are some of the location pictures.

This is the main entrance gate of the "Beaconhouse School System - Jubilee Campus". It is actually an O'/A'level school but we have referred to it as "college" in our film so that it may be taken in a more generalised meaning. This is actual location for Scene 1. We wanted the environment and misc-en-scene to feel more like a college which is why we will utilise extras in our film to make the "school" feel more like a "college".

This is another shot of the entrance gate. Notice that this angle has a more wider view of the misc-en-scene. This will enable the audience to comprehend what the environment must be like. For example: Students walking through the front gates will show that it is a college. The guards will show that there is security and it is indeed a reputable university. We will be taking shots of the car when it arrives in front of the main entrance gate.

This is how the rest of the environment of the college looks from the point-of-view of the entrance gate. We will most probably use this shot when Kamran's mother drops him off , and he is walking into the gates. Notice that it shows the parking. In the shot , most probably the parking will be full and there is be a large number of students rushing towards the front gate. This will show that how excited the "apparent" first years are to check the noticeboard.

This is the shot of the main entrance gate that our main character will walk through. The reason that i have chosen the small gate instead of the bigger counterpart is because the bigger one is used only in home time and is normally closed when entering the "college" premises in the morning. This is most probably due to security reasons.

This is the opposite view of the same gate shown in the picture above. Our main character "Kamran" will be showing walking into the college premises via this shot. Notice the security checkpoint. This will give the audience an idea that the school has finance to support security checks etc. Which will in turn give the idea of the college being elite and top-of-the-line.

This is probably a better shot than the one shown above. It has more headroom and generally gives the audience a better view of our main character and his surroundings. It will also allow us to pan the camera towards the A'level section towards the right, which is where the rest of the film will be shot.

This is the entrance of the A'level section. The corridor is located towards the left. This is section where a large part of our film will be shot. I consider this shot amazing. There are reasons , firstly, this shot has the clear view of the Principal's Office and the Staff room to make the environment feel like a college and secondly , it clearly shows the noticeboard towards the wall on the right , where the students will be gathering to check their class and sections. This shot will help us define the location of the noticeboard and the principal's office.

 This is the opposite side of the A'level entrance shown in the picture above. This shot will also be used in the film. It will clearly show the weather of the film. The weather that we have predicted is suppose to be early morning when colleges start. This shot will help us convey this to our audience.

This shot was taken from when there were no students present. During the shoot, students will be present ,roaming and finding their way onto classes etc. The noticeboard that be seen attached on the wall towards the right. Kamran will check his class/section from here and go towards his class , where he will be caught up by the bullies who will take him to the back alley. He will meet the bullies towards the stairs on the right hand side.

This is a shot of the Back Alley. The bullies will bring Kamran here to rag him and tell him to dance. The back alley is usually not occupied by students any more , this is probably the reason why we chose this place as our first preference while thinking as to where Kamran should get ragged. The 3rd Scene will be shot entirely in this location.

This is another shot of the back alley. The bullies will bring Kamran at this point , make him wear a tutu and tell him to dance here. They will also record his video here.

This is the exact location where Kamran will get ragged in our film. Since the most important scene of our film revolves around Kamran getting ragged. There will be a need for successful panning and match on action to carry the ragging scene out. This is probably why we have taking pictures from different sides of the back alley , because the shots will keep on changing in a short amount of time to create enigma and show tension.

This is an ideal location for the bench to be kept.

This is a shot of the Ground Floor corridor. It is probably the best place to show the students attending/looking for classes etc. Since most students travel through this corridor for connecting classes. All the classes shown in this shot belong to the A'level section.

This is the outside of the classroom that we have chosen for the 4th scene. This location was more ideal since we did not want a lot of extras in the hallway. Having less students in the hallway gives this assumption that most students are studying in their classes.

This is the exact same door shown above , but it has been taken from a different angle.

This is the classroom in which the 4th scene will be shot. Notice , that this classroom was chosen in particular because it can easily hold upto 20-30 students and is neat and clean. The wide angle will also help in panning the camera towards the teacher who's expressions will be made visible to the audience while he is teaching.

This is another shot of the same class shown above. The seats will be arranged in a different manner though.

This shot clearly shows how neat and well maintained the classroom is. It also shows how much space the classroom has for example: it can be seen that it can easily hold 20 or more students.

This is another side view of the same class shown above. Shows how neatly the chairs are classified in order.
