Io Non Ho Paura (I'm Not Scared)

I'm not scared is a movie set in Southern Italy in 1978 during the the hottest summer of the century. The story is based on a nine year old boy, Michele Amitrano who finds a boy hidden in a hole which he believes is dead. Michele later returns to the hole to find that the boy, Filippo Carducci is not dead and learns that he has been kidnapped and finds himself in a tough situation.

I watched this movie last night and I really enjoyed it! I'm reading the book at the moment too and I think they are both fantastic! It's definitely a must-see movie! I'm not going to go into too much detail about the story line, but I will point out that I really liked the opening to this movie....

Final movie plan

It's set! Next weekend we are filming Marge and we have agreed that Marge will talk about one of her real life experiences! Marge has had a lot of experience with performing arts and is willing to talk about it. Depending on the footage that we get from Marge, we have not yet decided if we are going to use flashbacks as they may not be necessarily needed in our film opening.

Filming practice

Today Alice and I went to Forty Hall to practice for our filming day next week. We found many areas in the woods where we could do the flashback scenes. We took a few shots to show what we could use and how the shots would look.

This is short clip Alice and I made as we experimented with different transitions to create a flashback effect.

Possible location for our movie opening

Our possible movie opening location is Forty Hall because we think it's appropriate and fits in well with our ideas.
