Lego sequence - Life On Mars

This is the introduction sequence to the popular TV drama Life on Mars. Our group, (which is Me, Matt, Alie, and Kirk) decided to do this drama as it seemed a good drama to try and create with Lego. We thought it would be interesting and fun to do. We will need to follow the sequence slowly in order to get the shots right and for it to be effective. We will need to look at the shots used, for example long shots, over the shoulder, close ups, pan shots etc. Looking at the video above, we will need several Lego characters and maybe a lego car? We will need to each have individual roles in order to complete the sequence effectively and make sure we get it done in time. Kirk is bringing in some additional lego to the lego in class so that we know we will have enough lego to do the sequence right - as the other groups will also use the lego and there may not be enough for everyone.

I think the problems we may face will be:

- We may not have enough knowledge of final cut etc in order to get the effects similar to the actual Life on Mars intro.

- We may not have the corect lego needed

-We may face problems with the backgrounds of some areas as they are quite complex and we are not allowed to use actual backgrounds from Life on Mars, we have to make our own.

-We may not get the sequence finished in time, but the clip is only a minute long so this seems unlikely.

-We may face problems within our group, some people may be off or ill.

Other than this I think we will do a good job of making the Life On Mars intro as although there are alot of hard shots to do, we have a good amount of time to do it in so we can make sure it is done effectively.
