Approaching the finish-line...

Hello everyone!


UPDATE:  Editing link for tweaking exposure / lighting.

So where to from here?

The things we should be thinking about now are:

1.  Pick-up shots / alterations (for whatever reason)

  • List the shots you want to change, what you want to different and WHY.  (These notes could prove very useful for your Critical Reflections)
  • Filming schedules for the above


2.  Continue your rough cut, finalise as far as is possible while allowing for upcoming changes!

  • Logos / credit sequences: log all stages of development, with reasoning.  Use links from previous post to assist in animation.
  • Think continuity and flow; what should be dominant in terms of sound?  Also remember Less Is More.


3.  Critical Reflections

  • Consult with the Media Roles handout you were given, ensure you have distributed the roles so that everyone had a similar workload.  This may mean that one person had seven tasks while another had only two; number of jobs does not dictate quantity/quality of work!
  • Consider how you want to arrange and construct your CREATIVE critical reflection; what forms of media will you use to critique your product and your contribution towards making it?  Why?  What can you use that is symbolic / meaningful in the use of that particular form?
  • Get others to help you!  That means you can make extra film that you may (for example) decide to splice into your group's end-product as a sort of Director's Commentary version, or Making Of, etc.  It also means you should try to research what other groups have done to create Critical Reflections in the past. Do not copy these, as you do not know what mark they received! - still, use the ideas and improve upon them.


And remember to keep breathing.  Breathing is good for you.

Have fun!
