Steps in filming the movie

Our Research on To Kill a Mockingbird: Book Vs Movie

In movie, the director had cut many scenes from the book some examples are Ms. Maudie's house on fire, the audience never meet Jem and scout's cousin and their uncle, the audience don't see the family house that aunt Alexandra lives in and Mr.Dolphus Raymond's conversation with Scout and Dill.

Why did we choose this poem for filming?

We first chose the poem Naming of parts to film because when we first read the poem it gave us a deep impression for the interesting theme about problem of war. As we got together and talked about the project, we all agreed in choosing naming of parts.

Naming of parts

by Henry Reed

To-day we have naming of parts. Yesterday,

We had daily cleaning. And to-morrow morning,

We shall have what to do after firing. But to-day,

To-day we have naming of parts. Japonica

Glistens like coral in all of the neighboring gardens, And to-day we have naming of parts.

This is the lower sling swivel. And this

Is the upper sling swivel, whose use you will see,

When you are given your slings. And this is the piling swivel, Which in your case you have not got. The branches

Hold in the gardens their silent, eloquent gestures,

Which in our case we have not got.

This is the safety-catch, which is always released

With an easy flick of the thumb. And please do not let me

See anyone using his finger. You can do it quite easy

If you have any strength in your thumb. The blossoms

Are fragile and motionless, never letting anyone see

Any of them using their finger.

And this you can see is the bolt. The purpose of this

Is to open the breech, as you see. We can slide it

Rapidly backwards and forwards: we call this

Easing the spring. And rapidly backwards and forwards

The early bees are assaulting and fumbling the flowers:

They call it easing the Spring.

They call it easing the Spring: it is perfectly easy

If you have any strength in your thumb: like the bolt,

And the breech, and the cocking-piece, and the point of balance,

Which in our case we have not got; and the almond-blossom

Silent in all of the gardens and the bees going backwards and forwards,

For to-day we have naming of parts.

Connection to the poem

As we were writing the script and filming we mainly focus on the theme and information from the poem. That is about a little boy that was recruited to an army, put into a training camp before he had gone into combat. As he was trained, he thought about his days back home about his childhood, thus showing the audience about problems of war.

Directorial changes made

The directorial changes we have made are the beginning of the film we add the setting for the story, we cut out some details such as the things that the boy did everyday, emphasizing the important parts of the story by show details such as the detail in the boy's memory and putting a little bit of a ending to the story. We only used one person to play all the characters in the film.

Step 1

Naming of Parts, poem to short film

The first step in filming the video is to find our topic and write the script for the video.

Step 2

Final Step

Next thing we have to do is to find places for filming, props for video, time to shoot the video and the actor in the film.

With everything done now it's the time to edit the video and after the editing is done we show the class.

Step 3

Why did we make directorial changes??

After everything is set we are ready to shoot the video. We will start from scene 1 to scene 5

We have made the changes to our short film in order to make it more understandable by giving the film a setting and providing a more entertaining outcome of the story with a person playing all the parts in the film.
