Week before deadline!

On Monday, our group arranged to reshoot. Me and Alice had everything ready and then Averielle decided that she couldn’t film. This meant that our group had to think of another time to reshoot and we couldn’t do any other days with josh until Thursday, which was too late as that was our deadline.

On Tuesday, Alice and I worked on music and title sequence for our film. This was difficult as we didn’t know exactly what music we wanted to put in and we knew that we had to have music throughout the whole thing. 

We realised that we had to film on our Wednesday lesson. Alice and I filmed Averielle walking into the room. This proved a difficult task and took up our whole hour. We filmed from different angles, so that we had a variety to choose from when it came to editing.

Again, when we uploaded these we found it too dark. This meant that we couldn’t use the shots and was difficult because we had to find a way to edit in exactly what we already had but so that it worked for us.

On Thursday, we edited everything together with the new reshoots and music. We tried to make the film look the best we could. As we felt that we needed some feedback, we got Mr Ford to watch through our film, and he told us that it didn’t make sense, even though he had seen our storyboard and we had explained what we were trying to achieve. Therefore we ended up changing the whole sequence of our shots. This meant that every shot without a knife went first, and then the shots that Averielle did have a knife in came second. We also changed around where we were putting our title as we found out it couldn’t go where we wanted it to. This therefore meant that we had to find a new place for our title to go, and we worked this in just before the stabbing scene as we decided that we could hear the stabbing before we saw him dead.
