Group research

From our research we found that a male contingent would most likely view our film. They seemed to like the idea of a crime film, as they liked the cleaver writing techniques and story-lines. They also liked the idea of a fast pace movie with a main authoritative figure. When we asked them about 'Big Jon' they said that he was the ideal character they were looking for and found him very interesting.

Editing

We tried to use a low-angle shot when Matt Don and Sam G are walking from the car park to meet Big Jon but we decided to not use it because there was lighting issues and the camera was shaking.

Editing

We decided to take out the action of Matt and Sam walking down Presberg Road and Kyran walking away from the car as we believed that it was too boring and didn't give the audience any information or entertainment.

Re-filming

We had to re-film our car sequence as the variety of camera shots used was limited. We used a two-shot for the entire sequence, and the light was also of poor quality. So we re-filmed with a variety of shots, including low-angle shots and shot-reverse-shots. This will make our film more appealing and interesting.

Re-filming

We forgot our camera at school and had to use Matt's brother's camera. This wasn't very efficient as it was only 14 mega-pixels and in limited light, it didn't work well. So our footage didn't turn out well. Thus, we will have to pick-up at a later date.

Editing

We went out to re-film our car sequence yet left the camera at school. Thus, we had to improvise and borrow Matt's brother's camera. Yet, this was only 14 mega-pixels and once we uploaded the footage onto the mac, you could clearly see the difference in quality and this didn't look right.

Editing

We attempted a jump cut to show that time has moved on as Matt and Sam get closer to Jono. This didn't match the pace of our earlier footage. Therefore we had to remove it as it didn't make sense and wasn't really needed.

Editing

We had trouble with natural sound in the background of our clips. For example traffic and wind. We had to insert markers to tone down, or some cases delete audio clips, to make sure our soundtrack and speech could be heard. For example where Matt and Sam exit the subway, the traffic noise was very loud and useless to us, so we had to delete it.
