Feedback for Practical

Effective use of spatial and temporal editing. It is clear that costume has been considered carefully in terms of what meaning is created. The bloody t-shirt is effective in giving the audience enigmas to build suspense. the flashes are extremely effective - it would be nice to see this sort of effect experimented with more in your next practical (if appropriate to the genre). fklash effective as in sync with the soundtrack. Well done.

Final Thriller Sequence

Here is our sequence which has been edited fully also including a soundtrack made in the program, Garageband. It took us approximately three lessons to make our soundtrack as well as editing the sequence. We also made various titles for it which includes the group members names and states what they have done for the sequence, the name of the title, and the 'made-up' production company.

Storyboard Explanation

Our storyboard took a whole lesson to write, it has helped us decide on shot durations and where the camera would be filming from.

This helps us decide whether it was long or close shots also if it will be handheld footage or on a tripod.

It is important to do a storyboard as it helps us to plan out our story and what order the shots are going to be in, we can work out from there our shot location and also what is going to be put into the title sequence as it is one of the most important parts of the film because it helps to get people intrigued of what the film is about and makes them want to watch the whole thing to see whats going to happen throughout the film.

Major producers will use a storyboard as a guide and basis for the whole film

Location Footage

Our group had to find a suitable location to film our sequence, so we looked around nearby the college grounds and found a number of places which gave us lots of choices and ideas. We recorded a video of the location which we will use for our sequence.

props and costumes

The costume the victim will be wearing will be normal clothing however their will be tear marks on the clothing to show that there has been some sought of struggle or commotion

The clothing will also be stained on certain parts with a red dye to signify blood stains, it has yet to be decided what will be used for the red dye. To accompny the blood stains will also be dirt marks which can be found anywhere in the woods

The victim will have water splashed over them to make it look as though though they have been sweating from all the running and also from all the stress and fatigue caused by the incident.

Feedback for animatic sequence

The feedback we recived from the group showed that we had some good and bad points of our title sequence.

The group said that the pace was good and complimented the pictures however we may have to change the pace of the title sequence depending on what music we chose to use.

The flash backs was said to help towards the story of the title sequence and gae a good idea of the plot sof the story.
Camera flashes were said to be good for taking the viewers mind of the story for the second of the shot, a good way of cutting to the next shot and that the echinque would really suit the genre of the title sequence.

Music will be needed to improve the quality of the title sequence as it will increase the suspense of the viewers however we may have to change the pace of the sequence depending on the music

More shot variation is needed
