Feedback on film.

alrite we hav had some feedback on our film from the class. wooo. here wot they think.

Positives: Good choice of music. Good underwater shot. Good acting (well dun lads). realy interesting and unusual shots. Fast paced editing. good continuity.

Things to work on: shakey zoom, no gun shot or blood wen andy gets shot. lighting? (not sure wot they mean). No establishing shot (personally dont think we need 1). Narrative structure (i thought it was spot on again). wen az dies, music too quiet. Music peaked to soon.

We shud get sum mre feedback wen the other class watches it.

Finished....We Think

Today we finished the main bulk of the editing, we shortened all the clips as there is a lot of action and the pace had to be faster to match. We ran out of time to do the last finishing touches, which could improve our mark substancially, if we did these next week we will loose a couple of marks on our planning, but could make up more on our finished product.
What do you think we should do?
Does anything else need to be handed in before the Easter hols?
Cheers,
Ed

Getting There!!

Hey everyone,

We have just about finished most of our shots, the only ones left to do are the finishing shots when az comes into the house after the hitman believing he was dead. We did a lot of editing today, tidying up shots and trying to make it as seemless as possible. The plot is so much better as the storyline has a lot more depth to it. We all had to chip in and change our planning sheets, due to me thinking our original storyline was a bit timid. Hopefully we will finish editing by friday and then we will be able to burn it onto disc.

Andy have you finished the neat copy of the storyboard?

Ed

OK we need to film again.

Have been looking at the shots and they look ok but all 4 of us feel we can all do better. So we r filmin on the weekend and we r goin 2 hav some awesome footage. R rite ups r goin wel. Well mine is. Just started analysing the quesstionnaires to add on my work. Another thing. If we do memento and the fugitive do we still have to do our own. sum1 tel me b4 friday plz. lol. Andy can you do saturday nite if not we have 2 do everything on sunday. L8RS

Started Filmin' wooo!

Hello again. We started filmin at last. However we hav completely changed the plot. In other wrds we have 2 redo the plot summary and storyboard. But it is better. Az is payin ed 2 kill andy. He hands over package with a gun a picture of andy and an address for where he lives. He also says that there is one bullet use it wisely on a separate piece of paper. When this package is switching andy shoots az. Next you see ed getting dressed into his hitman clothes (bond style) and carries a knife and a Gun. He creeps into andy's house (cross cuts of andy sleeping) and they have a fight. Ed kills andy and looks through his draws. To his astonishment he finds all the same documents, same type of gun but with a picture of eds face. Az walks back into the room and ed knows that he has been set up so he attempts to shoot az. az give ed one bullet for a reason and he has used it up on andy.. And then after the attempted shot the title of the film comes up. I think it is going to be called the ultimatum. plz comment on what you think. hope it makes sense. lol.

Neway we have now done most of the outside shots and the shots with ed creepin in the house. All we need to do now is edit that in wednesdays lesson and finish shooting not this weekend (az and ed r in poland, dont miss me to much) but the weekend after that. The footage looks better on the laptop than it does on the camera which is good. Hopefully are continuity in the fight scene is spot on and we get lots of useful footage. Ne comments more than welcome. C u guys 2moz.
