Progress

In todays lesson we did the final re-shoots which we decided upon due to the feedback we got from our class. We then split the group in order to use our time more effectively, Natalie and Iveta worked on getting the final bits of footage edited into place, Nicola started work on the credits/titles and I worked on the sound. This went well we completed the majority of our tasks, finishing the editing of the sequence, getting an idea for what we want the credits to look like and beginning to develop the sound for the inter cutting between the boy and girl.

Re-Filming

After school today we went back and re-filmed the establishing shot, Ruby arriving at the party, the reveal of Ruby, the close up phone call (Ruby), the zoom in on the dress and Ruby putting the shoes on.

We made sure we took loads of takes in different ways for example with the establishing shot we did just a still shot of the house, a zoom, a slow walk and a pan just so that we have a variety to chose from when we start to edit them.

This went well as we got all the shots we needed in a short period of time, and they all looked good and effective.

Progress-
Today we spent editing our opening sequence and continued working on making the footage flow together nicely. We need to still re-film some of our footage because of lighting issues so we will hopefully do it on the weekend.
Overall, today was successful as Nicola and Kirsten spent time finding the right music and have tried to create something on GarageBand which would fit when the girl and boy are getting ready. We have all decided that it would be best to have different types of music on the boy and girl so it appears like realistically what they might listen but also looks like diagetic sound i.e. they are actually listening to this type of music whilst getting ready.
Meanwhile, me and Natalie carried editing the sequence together; I think that the graphic match from the girl's red dress and his red bottle works really nicely and is visually entertainer/ creative. 

 

 

Cast

We used a girl and a boy to play our two main characters and had other people who were in the party. Here is the girl we had used before filming her getting ready:

Ruby

Here is the boy we had used for our filming: 

Michael

Refilming

We have to refilm the parts of the lead female walking to the party because of the snow as this will affect continuity.

Filming Day 1

We filmed our first bit of footage yesterday, on the whole it went well. However there were some mistakes with using the camera and so some of the footage was not recorded, but we shall just re-record it another day.
