Draft Edit
We have just completed our draft edit of our final sequence. We created this edit on final cut using our footage we have already shot.
we used a lot of varied shots including close-ups because these type of shots are used frequently in types of films around the genre or horror.
our opening shot is a close-up of our main characters eyes the immediate reaction to this is that with the motion blur it tells the audience that the character has been drugged and not in a normal state of mind.
we have used the blur to exaggerate movement this is similar to a shot in the film Saw 1 when the character is first confronted with the idea of the death mask. The exercise was very useful as it higlighted things that we need to improve on for our final piece. For example it is important that we now capture some minor shots of movement so that all our shots continutity is proffesional. We were also able to get feedback from the class, we did this by asking them to fill out a short survey on thier views of the film. We gave out six questionarres and gave three to males aged 16-20 and to three females also aged 16-20. We chose this sample as we wanted the opinions of the film from people that were relevant to our target audience. Below is an example of the questionarre given:
