Final film

Showcase

Today was the showcase of our film openings and A2's music videos. The feedback we recieved was really positive and we are very pleased with our two minute opening. The audience reacted well; they were scared even though we warned them about the pair of boots in the spare room and the doorway in the last scene. I think if we were to make this into a feature length film, we would gain the same amount of suspense and fear that we hoped for. This has made me very excited for A2.


Finished film vlog!

We made a vlog explaining the last finishing touches which were sound, font and dialogue. Now that we have finally finished our two minute opening film, we are pleased and proud of our work. We worked really hard in order to achieve suspense and fear in our opening as done by our inspirations Shutter Island and Luther. We are now working on our evaluations which will be done individually and will be uploaded soon.

Finally finished!!

We have finally finished our film opening and we have decided to leave it now so that we don't make any more changes.



 Now all we have to do is our evaluation. I have already planned out the topics I will talk about in my evaluation and all I need to do is film myself and edit the clips and pictures on top. I think my group and I will be doing this together as it will allow an in sight to all our perspectives and specific jobs we had in the group. For example, as Charlotte fimiling, Nadia directing, me acting and all of us editing.

Some changes..

After recieving audience feedback, we changed a few things in our two minute opening. Firstly, we took away the question mark from the film name because we realised that most film names have no question marks.


We also took away the background music when I am walking through the house up until I get out of the first bedroom and then the tension music begins.

We also filmed our production company which has the theme of a ransom letter, fitting in the genre of our film. We cut out letters from newspapers to form the words Thud Productions and stuck them on a coloured board we found in the art room for a nicer background. Each word pops up with each beat of the music we found on LGFL Audio Site. We chose this song because it is catchy and although is does not really suit our genre, this does not really matter because production companies produce different genres of films and if we were a real production company, then we would too.
