Unit 5 | Short Film Production

 

To gather audience feedback we made an questionnaire for the audience to answer through Survey Monkey a platform that can be shared with others that can be edited before sending to ask appropriate questions. From the feedback we have gathered we will act upon the feedback and improve our short film production, this will strengthen the quality of the short film for we have primary feedback from the target audience on what can be improved on the short film and if the storyline and editing concludes the short films conventions we included. Based on the feedback that we have been given we will be making user to act upon the changes that need to be done, for example we will be making sure that the editing changes will be altered and there will be extra footage added to elaborate onto the storyline that is already there. A short scene will be added of when the main male character looks up into the sky where the dream like footage is further shown, this will help show the audience that the st...

  First of all you need to select the full clip, once you do this a white box will appear around both (this means that the audio and clip you have chosen is linked). If you want to the unlink your audio and chose a different audio then you need to right click onto the clip. After you have right clicked a drop down menu will appear, to unlink the audio you need to scroll down the menu then press onto unlink, I did this because I wanted to get rid of the background audio since there was roadworks happening and people shouting where we were filming. Furthermore, after you have unlinked the audio there shouldn't be a white box around both of the    clip and audio and there should just only be box around the clip. Once you have unlinked the audio from the clip you then need to click on the audio you want to delete and then either right click and press cut or press the backspace button on your keyboard. This would then clear the audio from the editing bar wh...

During the film ing process we abided by health and safety guidelines through checking the locations we  would be filming at and the safety procedures that are already in place at the current time. To secure the health and safety guidelines we made sure that the equipment was checked for the battery percentage before it was taken out and it was all packed into safety bags to then be taken to the specific locations. This made sure that all the equipment was secure and safe, and none would become damaged during the transportation from locations. Whilst recording we made sure that all the wires and equipment was safely secured together to make sure that nobody would trip over any of the wires whilst we was filming, to state all the security measures and safety measure we will take we have created a risk assessment outlining all the possible risks and how we can avoid them from occurring and how we could solve them. Before filming we checked the access to the fire exits in th...

 

  On this screenshot we are showing how we have added the VR light rays filter as this is a simple edit which matches the idea of it being a memory. We have also sliced the footage to make sure that the  footage flows more and looks as if it's not been edited.  During the editing of the scene we have had to slice the footage into 3 separate sections to then be able to further add a slow motion shot in the scene to help add to the atmosphere of the short film. From doing this it means that the audience will be able to identify the genre of the short film and the storyline that is occurring.  To add special effects to the scene we have added the special effects of a slow motion shot of the guy looking at the girl, this adds a more intense and a 'romantic' feeling to the short film. This has been done because it adds to the classic scene of when the first cross over to be dramatic in other short films, this adds a classic touch to the short film and makes it seem more p...
