Director's credit update vlog

Here is the vlog after all the director's credit stress... we are so happy!

Title sequence update

In today's lesson, we (roughly) finished doing our title sequence, so we are now able to synchronize the background music to each title. Here is a picture of us selecting our title font in the lesson:

We decided against the original fonts we downloaded for the name titles, because they look quite unprofessional, and although they compliment our film title, they don't seem to fit against the visuals on screen. We did however, select one of the downloadable fonts for our film title, which we really like! This is what it looks like...

Here is a quick vlog we did in our lesson about our progress today:

Vlog: Title fonts

Here is a quick vlog me and Tayla did about the choice of our title fonts, we will upload the ones which we have selected!

Update vlog: voiceover and background music

Here is a vlog we did today whilst editing, giving a brief update on the sound in our opening (my big head is in the way throughout, sorry).
Rhianne put together a track on garageband, looping it so it lasted for two minutes, however we have come to realize that for some parts of the opening, the sound does not fit with the visuals.
We are trying to find a way to make the track fit and distort the sound when our titles appear, much like in the trailer for Se7en (1995) which can be found here.
We are still yet to record our voiceover, but we have found two people who are willing to do it, with voices which we think will work nicely.

Update vlog

Here is a quick vlog which we did whilst editing, briefly explaining our progress on creating sound for our two minute opening, and how we might film the final scene.

Group vlog: editing and ideas for sound

Here is a group vlog which we did in our lesson - we have been considering possible changes to the sound in our opening, and we have discussed the possibility of replacing our dialogue with a voice over.

First editing day vlog!

We have just started editing the footage for our two minute opening, and while we were up in the media room we decided to do a quick vlog:


So far, we're finding editing pretty hard and we have realized that it is an extremely slow process. Nevertheless, we're still having a laugh looking at a few of the clips!
We have almost finished sorting out which shots we would like to use, and we are following our storyboard very closely to establish the order of our shots.
We are still unsure whether we need to re-film anything, and we still have one more location to film in - so far, it is going quite well...

Second filming day: location 1

Today Mac 5 spent our NYE finishing off the outdoor scenes, as we watched our footage from Monday back and we realized we wanted a few more shots.

Here are some pictures from our filming day:

Here is a quick group vlog that we did about our day:

First test filming day vlog!

Here is a group vlog (minus Tayla) about our first day of filming!
Today was a really good practice filming day and hopefully we got some of the shots we need for our actual two minute opening.
We are in the process of editing today's footage, which will hopefully be uploaded very soon.

Individual vlog: BFI again

Here is a quick vlog about our second trip to the BFI!
(Apologies for the awful video quality)
