Final Evaluation

Filming & Editing the main exercise for 'watch your back'

I think the filming was successful although amy failed to come as she wasn't feeling to good on the day. I think the rest of the group pulled together really well under the pressure though. We filmed our final exercise under the rounabout near the jubilee clock in Weymouth. The opening sequence was for a new fiction film based on a girl getting stalked by her boyfriend after an arguement.

It wasn't intentional but the weather was cold and dull so i think this will show pathetic fallacy and reflect the mood of the opening sequence. There were a few problems with filming at the subway though. The first thing was the rain it kept getting on the equipment so we had to use an umbrella the second problem which was the worse was that we were filming in a public place so people kept walking past so we had to keep refiliming things as it was unreliable when they would next walk past again.

We were meant to use amy's friend to film but amy was ill, so there was a change of plan and we ended up using holly's friend james instead. Lucky mia was okay on the day of filming so we didn't need to change the girl actress. We filmed the flashbacks of the girl and her boyfriend 'mia' and 'james' at james house, which was good as the weather had no way of effecting the footage. We then walked to the subway and filmed the boyfriend later on in the day chasing the girl. Earlier in the day Holly had spoke to the police to make sure it was fine for us to film it there an make them aware its us incase anyone rings in thinking it was real life. We did the over the shoulder point of view shot of the boy watching his girlfriend walking along the subway, i think this worked really well and gave it a eerie feel.

I think we stuck to the storyboards well and just added a few more shots for the editing process. We filmed mia holding onto the bar instead of a shot of the moon as it was to dark for us to see the moon through the film.

We edited the film on windows movie maker and added in the titles on adobe premier pro. We also made the flashbacks grey so that people new it was a flashback.

Planning the final project

Planning the final project hasn't been as hard as i thought it would be as we all did an equal amount of work towards it. Also when we were first told about the planning we heard it was going to be much harder then the pliminary exercise but i was surprised as i found it ruffly the same with both. I think this might be because we worked so well together in a group and knew what each other was doing.

Compared to the pliminary exercise i think we we're much more organised with our roles of with who was doing what with the planning i think this helped us to work faster and with more detail.
I took the role with tom to plan our the story board an do the drawings i found this interesting as i didnt get a chance to do it last time. The story board needed a few adjustments when we looked at it as a group because we needed to make the opening sequence longer.

For the final exercise we all chose to do it at the subway near the jubilee clock, as we thought it would be easier for us all to get there because for the pliminary exercise we did it at bridport which meant me and holly had to travel up to meet tom and amy. Holly took pictures of where we we're going to film before so we could do an analysis. I think we all worked well in a team to know what we were doing before we decided to film. Our film was aimed for years 18-25 and example of the genre films we chose we're kidulthood, adulthood and Harry brown.
