This is are final product

EVALUATION ACTIVITY 1

1 (Props) : We used the one main prop, which was the ipod shuffle. We used this for two main reasons. The first was so we could use the soundtrack, and the second was to give the film something the audience could relate to.

2 (setting and location) We decided to set our film in urban areas because Its where most teenagers live/brought up. We chose house that would typically be seen in the city.

3 (camera work and editing) We chose mainly mid and long shots to show the audience the area where the main character lives. We decided then to add titles in the shots around him as there is plenty of space.

4 This is a particular shot we liked because we thought it gives a mood and feeling of loneliness.

5 (main title) We chose this for our title as we thought it sounded good as it is relatable to music. The general idea was to make the title relatable to the character. By adding the mp3 player into the title it gives a the idea and genre of the film.

6 (introducing the character) We decided to open our film showing our character. We did this because we wanted the audience to have a clear understanding of who the main character.

7 (Title font and style) We decided to use simple white text as it would be clear to the viewer.

8 (Genre) This shot shows the audience the film is based around the appreciation of music.

9 (Costume) We chose to dress the main character in clothes teenagers today would wear, we did this so it would be more relatable. We also added a rucksack to show he is preparing or packed something important.

EVALUATION ACTIVITY 2

We believe that our character, is most like the main character from Tenacious D And The Pick Of Destiny. Both characters have a strong love for music, but have different ways of showing it. The main character in Tenacious D has an open view on his music, as he shows it through median of song. However our character has a secretive nature never speaking or expressing his views in any way. The similarities are that they both play as the leading role in there films. They both are young and stereotypical of there age groups.

EVALUATION ACTIVITY 7

Looking back at my preliminary task i i learnt a couple of rules concerning continuity editing mainley match on action shot witch is a technique where the editor cuts from one shot to another view that matches the first shot this pitcher shows the match on action shot in bouth videos.

Rating For Our Film

We believe that our film best suits the BBFC rating of 12A. The reason for this is that we think the dark tone and the idea of running away from home may be a bit to serious for a PG audience. Also the use of bad language, and scenes of bullying is not suitable for a younger audience. We also think that the age group best suits the genre and story as the audience can relate to it. 

In compassing to are story board we did kip most of the original scenes but do to some charges to are film mainly the seen in the bus because of money problems we couldn't shot Any scenes in the bus so we decided to replace it for a seen in the cycle bridge.

Creative Risk

In our opening we had to take a risk with are sound. while filming my dog felt avoid of attention and started barking this made are background sound useless meaning that we had to make all of the sound are selves the risk in this is that we had to try to emulate all natural sound the benefit is that we could create any sounds we like on revelation i think we should have made shoer that the dog is away from any filming

feedback for another group {Hannah & Emma}

L3 - GROUP 2 (Hannah & Emma) Film Opening Rough Cut from cmdiploma on Vimeo.

this is one of the better opening in my opinion but there still some tweaks manly the way the music if you want to keep using the song that must be a shot of Hannah playing the music and a shot of both chariots playing the song on a portable music player this way thy cannot take Any marks away the next thing some of the shots are a bit wobbly so i think it is in you bast interest to redo them besides that i did like Hannah & Emma opening was funny an entertaining and i can't wait to see the finish product
