Even if we're following the storyboard, we have made some changes before stitching together the footage with one of them being the removal of the second scene and was replaced with a different one. We originally planned for the second scene to be the crime scene with both of the suspects there with one of the characters Mikhail building up the suspicion on the way, but we had to change the scene with only the detective showing up on the crime scene since we couldn't get confirmation from the church to film there and not all of us could arrive at the filming location. Some changes that we could make is by highlighting the text on the newspapers during editing and potentially changing some scenes to make the character Mikhail get more suspicion throughout the filming. Same goes for the character James but making him appear more scared and unconfident.  Edit Decision Log An Edit Decision Log is all about planning out what footage is going to be in use and extra information about i...

P4 Present short film and obtain audience feedback

Изображение
In this document I'll be checking out on the audience feedback that has been placed for us. The reason why we needed the feedback is so that we can see what type of mistakes we could avoid doing and things that we could improve in future film making. The forum contains 11 questions about the film which is more than enough for a short film and for there to be mostly positive feedback there needs to be at least 62,5% of people saying yes, if it's the opposite then that means the feedback was mostly negative. The first question in the forum asks the audience if the target audience is clear throughout the film. This question was set so that we could later on know if there are scenes that we have to change to suit that audience. The response from this question is mostly positive but with a portion of the people saying no shows us that we have to work on making it more clear for the audience. For the second question we asked about the editing, since we're doing a film noir styled...

M1 - Codes and conventions for the genre

Small Cast For our short film project, we formed a group of 6 with the group containing Me, Arsentijs,  Henry, Harrison, Faith, Ellie. Each person was given a set role to follow throughout the project and are able to do other roles like working behind camera or taking an acting role. The roles that were in use were editor, cameraman and actor. My main role in the project was to be an actor and being sometimes a cameraman, Arsentijs and Henry have roles of being actors, Harrison, Faith and Ellie were the cameramen. Small number of Locations For the short film we have only two locations that will be used in which they are the office in DUTC and a park in Doncaster. Most of the filming will be done in the office as only one scene consists of being outside in the park and that scene is when the detective goes to the murder scene. Length The length of the film should be under ten minutes at that is the maximum of what can be considered a short film.  Budget We don't have any budget...

In this photo Harrison and Arsentijs are recording audio for their roles in the second scene in the short film In this photo, Arsentijs and Harrison are setting up the audio equipment This is the microphone that was used to record the audio in most of the scenes. It was also used to record Foley sounds and environment such as birds chirping and the wing blowing since with control over audio, we can manage in what scenes what audio you'll hear the best In these photos we are setting up the office scene and the camera and audio. Everyone has taken turns on setting up the scenes and equipment.  Health and Safety While working on the project, it is possible for someone to get hurt if no one is there to keep an eye. For this we gave Henry and Harrison a Health and Safety role while they are off camera. They will keep track of the surroundings of the filming area and make sure that nothing is in the way or on the way to cause hazard. Of course they alone aren't going to be able to ke...

P1 Planning

Newspaper A short film made by: Arsentijs, Faith, Henry, Harrison, Jay Target audience and evidence: Our target audience will be aiming to be at 15 - 20-year-old students looking into the short film style "Film Noir". One reason that students might use this style for their future short films is because the style itself is very unique but difficult to pull off. The reason I've picked this age range is because they look to expand their interests in genres. Research into genre and conventions: I looked at the following films in order to understand the genre and conventions. About a girl - Snippets of comedy included. Lives it of with a twist. Character is speaking to you. Clips of the past and the present. The characters like to talk. Even in the past and in present she wore the same jacket. She's talking to herself. Different scenes indicate the relationship between the kid and the parent. At the start we learned that the girl wanted to become a singer but was having di...
