I REFUSE TO WORK WITH LOUISE BROWBANK FOR THIS PROJECT. :((((((((((((

Music

We handed in our rough cut of the opening sequence for our project and the song that we originally chose to use "Walk The Line" by Johnny Cash but we spoke about it with our teacher and the song didn't seem to work very well with the type of style that our opening clip had. Instead we did some research and looked at some songs that would be more suitable. We found a cover of "Taper Jean Girl" By Kings Of Leon on youtube and this seemed quite a good song to use. Instead we kept looking and decided the instrumental of Johnny B Good was the best an it made the whole film a lot better. This song was recorded over 50 years ago so we didn't need copy right permission.

On Saturday we chose to meet up and film a few more shots that would go towards our chase scene at the beginning. Once we got to our location we had some trouble finding places to film because it was a sunny day and this meant that the lighting didnt fit the previous clips that we had already filmed.
I think this shot above was good because it gave us more varied shot as it was the first close up that we had included.

Rough cut

This is our rough cut for the final media project. This is not complete and we need to refilm most of the dialogue and various other shots. We are also going to add more running shots which i have mentioned on a previous post.

Re-shoot (This post was saved in my drafts from an earlier date)

When editing the rough cut of our final project we realised that the continuity was not good and made the whole clip look unprofessional and of low quality. We  have decided to finish the rough cut with the poor continuity and make it look as good as possible and then in the half term we are going to refilm again.

Although the beginning of our scene, where it shows the chase I think we have included some very successful and effectve camera angles. But we spoke to our teacher and we all agree that we should take more shots from more varied angles, for example
- Close up of actors feet running
- Point of view shot of victim running
- Point of view shot of 'bad character' running
- Close up of face
- Close up on weapon
- Shot of feet running at the camera

We also need to include a successful shot/reverse shot to show the conversation. In the past we have struggeled with this because we always find that when it comes to editing the contiunity is off. To shop this happening we have decided to take several different shots from different angles. We are going to position the camera as a over the shoulder shot focusing on Louise and film the whole dialogue scene, then do the same with another over the shoulder shot of Ellie. Then we will take some other shots of them talking from side medium shots etc. This means when it comes to editing our clip we will be able to take shot clips from each over the shoulder shot and medium shot to go together and make a successful take.
