DONE!

Once we had finished editing and adding sounds into the movie clip, we then made sure everything was fit into place and then showed one of our media teachers and she said she liked the clip and asked if we were happy with it. We decided we were and discussed in a group how we done and together boom productions came to agreement that we had finished.

Re-Shooting & Finalising

After handing our first draft into our teachers, then came back to us, telling us to change a few parts in the movie and to change some of the editing techniques and sounds that we used. We all took this into consideration and got re-shooting as soon as possible. We started to re-shoot the following week and got all the re-shooting done in a couple of days. We then started to edit the clips and fall everything into place. Once we had edit the clips and made sure the move flowed, we then added the sounds which we wanted, we used an alarm sound for the morning he wakes up, which worked quite well and then we used a sound for everytime the chracter had a flashback. This worked extremely well also, and along with that the music which we had selected to play for the flashbacks worked well and gave a suspense atmosphere.

More Editing

After filming the present day scenes, we then linked all the clips together using final cut, which was interesting and enjoyable as we saw the movie coming together, it made us feel a lot more happy with what we were succeeding in doing. We all played a huge part in creating the editing and finally came up with our first draft, which we showed our teachers, to see what kind of verdict we got. Resulting on what things we had to change and reshoot.

More Filming

After editing the three flashbacks, we then had to film the present day clips, which was good fun as we had to use a lot of mise-en-scene before editing as we had to make sure that our main character had the make up and costume correct before setting up the camera in the places that we needed. But once we had sorted out all the mise-en-scene and the camera set up, we found it extremely easy to film the three present day clips we needed to. We filmed in the domestic house, first of all in the bedroom, which was quite easy to film as we had planned before filming this scene with our storyboards. Our next scene we filmed was in the house's kitchen which was quite easy also due to the planning that we did before hand and the same witht he final scene in the hallway, with the main character leaving the house. On a whole it only took us a couple of hours to film the present day scenes that we needed.

Editing

We had to use FinalCut Express, when editing our movie clip, which none of us knew how to use at all, so before editing we had a mess around with the software so that we could find out what the basics were, helping us to be able to start our editing for our movie clip. In the two lessons which we starting editing we were able to edit, the pub scene and the alley way scene, which we were really happy and pleased about. We found it difficult to edit the fight scene, but after another lesson we were able to edit all these three scenes which are going to be our flashbacks.

Start Filming

After planning our storyboards, shot list and locations, we have finally now started to film and we have started to film in our first location, which is the Black Horse Pub and we found it easy to film here as we were able to use a wide range of different shots and angles. After filming at the Black Horse Pub, we then decied to film down the alleyway next to it, which wasn't planned, so we thought we would see what kind of shots we could get down there. We found that the lighting was quite hard down the alleyway put we used the best of our lighting we could. After filming down the alleyway, we then decided we had another time to film down Longmead Road, this was the hardest bit of our filming as we had to film the fight scene here, we found this difficult as none of us have any experincing in this kind of acting or filming it. But overall the first day of filming went extremely better than we thought and we know feel a lot more confident in filming.

Location 2 - A House, A Bedroom, Doorway & Kitchen

Our second location is going to someone house which will be the filming of the present day in the movie. It is important that we know what all our location's our as it gives us a chance to check the locations out and then evaluate what shots and lighting etc we need in that location. This location will film the last of the clips that we need for our movie.

Below is the bedroom where the main character will be awaking to find out that his has got cuts and bruises over his face and that he will have is first flashback. When we went to have a look at this location we found out that the bedroom is quite small but we found that we have some good places to put some shots.This is what made us understand that it is important to go to your locations and see if what shots and angles you can use.

The Bedroom:

Our other location was the hallway to the door, which were are going to be using to show the main character leaving the house at the very end. It is quite a useful location as you have the stairs to use, so that you can get all sorts of shots and angles, which is going to be useful when filming our clip.

The Hallway

And the final location we used was a kitchen, which was a nice large domestic kitchen allowing us to think threw what kind of camera angles and shots to use. On a whole going to this location it has help as a group to decide what kind of shots etc, we are going to use. Not only that but it is always useful to check out your location before filming just to make sure you have selected the correct locations.
