Planning to film rest of footage on location Saturday 4th February 2017, as well as in the car. On Wednesday 1st February 2017, will be refilming 4 shots that are not currently working in the film. This is due to the lighting and therefore the quality of the original footage. The voiceovers will also be recorded on this day and finally, the magazine front cover photos will be retaken with better planning than before. I will then edit from the 4th February 2017, 6th February 2017, including the addition of voiceovers, rough titles and possibly sound in terms of a backing track and effects.

On Monday evening after school, I filmed the shots inside the house with my actors. I experimented with camera angles, trying to get a shot panning round of the actress, however this was not very successful due to a mix up with equipment which was beyond my control. I found myself experimenting with makeshift cranes made from dressing gown ties and a bag strap, however, the shots were mainly to shaky and seemed to feature my feet in most of them. I did get a nice crane in and down towards the male protagonist. I think that I may have to re-film these scenes or omit them from my trailer as the mise-en-scene does not really seem to fit into the rest of the trailer to make it cohesive. I am yet to the voiceovers and plan to use that as a character building/ warm-up exercise before filming on the final shooting day.
Again, the products of have not physically progressed yet, however I have a clearer plan of when I am going to have my 3rd shooting day, and have finished writing out the shot llist.
having taken a break to focus on mocks and Christmas, there has not been much physical progression in any of the media products, however, I have had a chance to brief the actors for the types of things I need from them in the rest of the filming. I explained that we will be bringing the story together and will be expanding further from the shot list when filming in- case during editing I find that there is not the correct balance between understanding the plot and speculation to engage the audience.
I have finished my genre specific deconstructions which then fed into some inspiration that it gave me for my product including some editing styles, such as a jump cut which I want to use as Flynn is running, this would give it a more edgy atmosphere and connote to the fact that the character is falling apart. |
