Nine frame work

We created a nine frame image to
show you what happens in the main stages in our film

 

Final film completed

After going over it as a group and making minor adjustments from taking advice by our teacher, we have came up with the final product. We feel it is a real reflection of our hard work and dedication to research and planning over the past weeks. We were disappointed we could not include some of the shots we filmed as it was too long when putting it all together. But we have made the best out of the situation and kept all of the vital shots we needed. We have used the titles running through the whole film opening to give it more of a professional film look. The intense music builds up to the important pieces in the production as you will see. We are not overly happy with the quality of the film, as they are a reflection of the cameras lended by school, but none the less we are overall please with the final product and feel that it has grasp the key features of the genre we were aiming for. We have published it on Youtube to gain feedback and response from the public.

Final filming complete

We have completed all of our production filming today, everything ran smoothly and we worked really well as a group. We feel that we have captured more than enough shot's to be able to edit our film and not to have to re- film again. This will consequently save a lot of time. Due to the research and planning we have done it has enabled us to get all of our filming complete promptly and smoothly and as a result has minimised the amount of errors.
We plan on editing in teh next couple of days.
Here are a few snapshots of our filming which we completed today:

AS filming editing

This is how our editing looks so far, we have nearly finished it all, there are just a few tweaks left to add. we have decided to use a theme of titles to bulk the opening up, as it is only a opening to a film we have added other peoples names so it looks like there are more than just the three people starring in the entire film. the software we are using is called Adobe Premier Pro. For our AS work it has worked quite well as we have only been using simple shots so that its not too complicated to edit and make look good

Post Production

Post production is the term for all stages of production occurring after the actual end of shooting and recording the completed work. Post-production is, in fact, many different processes grouped under one name. These are; video editing, writing, adding visual special effects and sound design/ effects. Post production can take longer than the actual making of the film itself this is because it needs to complete the editing, colour correction and the addition of music and sound. Post production can be seen as second directing because through post production it is possible to change the intention of the film.

Convergence

Convergence is the term used to describe how technology has brought together previously separate media channels. For example, a mobile phone and a camera work independently from one another but since early 2000's the two technologies have converged and most mobile phones now include a camera. In the film industry digital recording and distribution methods mean that previously separate forms can be bought together or converged. The digital content produced during film making is compatible with other digital media so can be used on websites or in games. Convergence is just the coming together or merging of two things.
