Q.7 Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product?

The preliminary task was to act out a scene from waterloo road, where we walked through a door whilst speaking. There are many things that needed to be improved such as, keeping the camera still, shots, not using zoom, improving on editing by having slower cuts. The lighting could have been improved by change in background colours, also using more fading would have been beneficial. Using cameras at different angles would have improved the shots. The head space on top of the camera would have lost us marks. Most shots were in the middle screen of the camera and therefore meant the shots were not as good because we were meant to have that a specific side of the screen. The massive difference in the final movie was the editing was completed really well, we ensured this perfecting our editing by spending more time on it. We also learnt from our mistakes, particularly when it came down to the use of zoom. We ensured the use of the tripod was used better and this meant that the camera was kept still while recording ensuring better shots and a clearer video. The lighting was much brighter and this meant there were no dark scenes. We used voice overs more effectively to add extra effect to the film.  In the  final film i used music which allowed to have a more effect on the audience but more importantly on the film.

this is a Facebook Page for my audience. this would allow them to keep up with all the gossip.



Teen movies:

  • People from the ages of 13 to around 20s
  • teen movies would be for these age groups this is because it would appeal to this in a way they can relate to what is going on.
my movie:

  • my target audience would be older 14-25 this is because it is about love and these are the ages people could relate to it.  Our USP is that people could relate and people would want to see it so they can remember how it was with them. also people would watch it with their partners.

Deadline Day - Final Push






To meet today's deadline it was vital that we began working immediately. We designated roles to one another, for example, Mustafa to edit first and Traivon was to re-film what was necessary.

The day started well. While we were huddled around to edit we noticed an incomplete clip (the book scene). With the equipment already pre-booked we quickly set up the filming apparatus and shot new footage (the library scene) to help tidy our current film.

By noon our primary focus was to finish our editing, including the title sequence and all special effects we desired to use. We didn't know

MUSIC

i used garageband to add sound music that would go with the movie we have made i used voices and normal sounds to add effects and make the film look and sound interesting.

distribution ident


i had to add effects to it so it can cause awn effect on the audience and look more realistic. I added smoke swerves and the bit in the middle spinning, i decided to do this because i thought it would suit the bit for the distribution ident.

wednesday deadline

This shot was a tracking shot which followed her walking. we decided to add this shot in because it wasn't only tracking it was also an over the shoulder shot. We decided to use this because it would give  you a idea of what she's experiencing (what she's looking at) also it makes our cuts look better and it makes it look more original.

filming

this shot was a really good shot, its a low angle shot. we diced to use this so we can have a variety of shots. this also allowed the audience to see the actors at different angles and would a lose help out editing look good.

editing

Thus bit of editing was where it fades into one scene toy another. This is really effective because it makes the match cut look better and more effective.


 this shows the process where we were putting together the hot where its over the shoulder and the shout where the camera was in the fridge. this was a good match cut which would cause and effect on the audience but then imagining the camera in the fridge and how imaginative we were.

editing

here is a good editing where it goes black and white to show a flash back, we have decided to do this because it would have a better effect on the audience and would make the opening look better. as you can see we had to add in an black and white layer white allowed to picture to turn out like this.

editing



Here there is a jump cut where it isn't a good shot because it jumps too quick from on shot to another and the camera isn't moving so, we decided to go out and film a shot where the books are dropping.

Editing Day 3

Today's lesson was very productive because we managed to go out and re-film the shots which received bad feedback after we previewed our rough cut. We also managed to edit them in to our current editing progress. We had to be careful when we re-filmed because we had to wear the same clothing and use the exact same props as well as the same lighting. This was for continuity editing. During this editing day we also had feedback from Micky (member of staff for media) who told us we were making good progress, but pointed out minor improvements which we could possibly make.

We all felt like today everyone played an active part in the editing process.








Here is how we added a black and white effect to the fridge scene,we thought it would make it look more effective as a flashback if it stood out dramatically from the other scenes.
First we selected the scene which we wanted to put in black and white.










Then we found the colour filter which we wanted to apply to the film.



Here is what it looked like once it was added.
