Pitch feedback

pitch feedback - as an overall everybody likes my idea. They said its good to get away from the usual topic of stalking. Around 70% of the people said it would look good if executed well, the only problem is actually executing it. As a whole the interesting/unique idea was catching attention from the class so we decided to take it on as a task. We need to use camera shots of all angles and show hierachy with the more important to the less important characters. Listening to my pitch my group all concluded the TMG was aimed at males but wasn't completely righting off women.

Potential problems -> Make sure the setting is realistic, like an alley way etc.
-> Props make sure the opening looks authentic.

Ident 3

This ident is a light grey which is abit to light for the genre. although its grey its abit too light.

This concludes that the first ident I annotated is best suited.

Ident 2

This ident is very colourful which could represent our film usings attraction, but the colours are way to bright to suit the action/thriller genre therefore people could think our film is childish so I don't think this ident could be taken further.

Ident 1

This ident suits my film genre. with action colours need to be dark/danger like which brings in your reds and greys and blacks. this ident being grey suits the action genre, but the problem is having a dark ident makes it dull which could discourage people to watch it as it could represent the film.

First draft feedback from Teacher

My teacher said our draft needed a few improvements, these are such things as lighting, titles, music, and our actors.

One of the problems with our draft was the lighting. It got darker towards the end of the film although this film opening would have only happened over a short time in the film. to learn from these mistake we need to film earlier on and allow ourself some more time.

Also we were told our titles were boring so we need to experiment with different fonts, and hopefully find one which suits our film genre. With feedback like this we now have found a font which is decent for the film.

In our draft we didnt include any music so in our film you could hear the background noise of cars, people walking by, etc. To solve this problem we looked at copyright free music and used a programme called garage band. hopefully using these we can find perfect music for our opening.

the last problem was the actors, we used 16 year olds, and why not because it was easy to arrange and no hastle of organising free times with adults, also we understood each other alot easier. Realism got back to us when you wouldnt have 16 year olds handling important files. So our teacher advised us to try and get older actors to add realism to our film.
Using this advice we asked Will's dad if he would feature in our film along with some other adults.

iPod

For my iPod on my blog i've chosen rock songs as rock suits my genre of film. On the xXx opening they used a rock intro, and that film inspired ours therefore i've chosen to use it for my blog which relates to our main opening.
