Tyrannosaur Swede-Task
At first we watched the opening of the film Tyrannosaur and were sat a task to do a swede of the opening. This involved changing the opening from a warp style film into a more working title style. We then went out to do the shoot we were unplanned and didn't take much time to think about it in depth.
Following that we reviewed what we needed to do to improve the shoot. When we did the re shoot we had certain people with different roles in order to plan it. The shoot improved due to story boards, screen plays and call sheets. With these we knew the exact way it was going to filmed with the camera angles etc and how it will appear on screen once edited. All dialogue was already planned so it was more time efficient and there was no confusion whilst filming.

Barry Ryan- Head of Production for Warp Films
This is England Film
The film this is England had a 6 week shoot and an 18 week edit. It made roughly £1.8 million in the Uk box office and had roughly 180,000 people going to see it. The Companies involved in the film were: Film 4, Uk Film Council, Screen Yorkshire, EM Media, The Works, Optimum Realeasing and Sales & Leaseback.
This is England 86'
Channel 4 helped do a massive marketing campaign going for it, this felt unusual for Warp because they are such a low budget production company. 2.2 million people watched it on TV. This was a massive leap from the relatively cheap film to the TV series. The Companies involved in 86' were: Channel 4, Madman Realeasing and Non Stop. Channel 4 gave Warp £500,000 and hour to make the series. Madman Releasing are an Australian company and Non Stop are Scandanavian which widened the market.
The predominance of the work is still in film but also doing work on TV like:
Fur TV (2007), This is England 86' (2010), The Midnight Beast (2011), This is England 88' (2011), Sky Arts (2012), Talking to the Dead (2013), The Midnight Beast 2 (2013)
Since 2010 appetite has been in making TV. People do TV if you want regular work and people do films because that's what gets you other work. There is a snob value between films and TV, this means that if you are seen on TV then people do my think you are good enough for a feature film.
When Warp shoot their films they are very quick and film them in about 5 weeks, some even in 18 days (Dead Mans Shoes)
