The film crew met at 3pm at Abi's house to refilm scenes from their horror film that needed improvement due to low light or other issues. They refilmed scenes of the characters walking home from school and scenes in the alleyway and park. The lamp post in the park broke during filming so they had to use phone flashlights instead and change their filming plans. Overall the refilling went well and the crew was happy with the improved footage and ready to begin editing.Production day diary three

My preliminary film lacked quality equipment and camera skills as it was my first time filming. Since then, I have gained more experience with cameras and editing software. For my foundation production, I focused on using a variety of shots and ensuring the sound fit the genre of the film. I also learned the importance of teamwork, as I had to complete the foundation production with only one other team member after the third left.Question 7 evaluation

The document discusses how the opening of a student-made motor sport film uses and challenges conventions of the genre. It uses conventional titles and credits, but an unconventional protagonist who is disabled. Locations like the race track are conventional. Costumes subvert stereotypes to show how the protagonist has changed. Camera work uses standard establishing and tracking shots. Editing contrasts fast-paced flashbacks with slower present-day scenes to convey a change in the protagonist's life. Overall the narrative draws on conventions like settings but also subverts expectations through the protagonist's disability.Nabila question 6 and 7

The document discusses how the film uses and challenges horror film conventions in its opening. It conforms to conventions through using an isolated derelict location, intense music, rope and tape as props to show the character being tied up. However, it also challenges conventions by showing a warm cosy house at first, everyday props like a phone and toothbrush, and normal clothing. The film title "Delusion" and production company logo fittingly conform to horror conventions while balancing challenging conventions makes the opening successful at being both unique and clearly a horror film.Evaluation question 7

The document compares the filmmaker's preliminary project to their later thriller project. For the preliminary, they had limited equipment, space, time and experience which restricted what they could achieve. For the thriller, they had more resources which allowed them to utilize more sophisticated camerawork, costumes, props, locations, actors and editing techniques to create a more polished and effective final product. The document reflects on the lessons they learned from the preliminary that helped them improve their skills for the later thriller project.Quality summary

The author reflects on what they learned from their preliminary task to the final film project. They improved on tracking shots by keeping the actor centered, but felt it could have been smoother. Framing shots were improved by using a level on the tripod and retaking shots that were not high quality. The content and setting were made more believable for the horror genre. Mise-en-scene was improved by selecting an isolated location and using red lighting and colors to convey danger. Editing techniques were applied that were learned from analyzing other horror films to make the meaning clear. Sound and music were used appropriately throughout the film to build tension. The actors became more comfortable in front of the cameraQuestion 7

This document summarizes the progression from a preliminary film project to a final thriller project. For the preliminary, the filmmakers researched techniques like the 180 degree rule and storyboarded their poker film. During production of the preliminary, they used some camera angles but lacked stabilization and time for all planned shots. In post-production, they added sound but lacked time for titles. For the final thriller project, the filmmakers improved their research, props, shots, editing, and attention to mise-en-scene and flow.Media Evaluation

The document summarizes a film opening created by students. It discusses the creative choices made including using flashbacks, hidden faces, and night filming to build mystery. It aimed the film at males aged 15-25 and used camera techniques like worm's-eye views to make the audience feel involved. Student feedback on actors, soundtrack, and production was positive, validating their choices met the thriller genre and short film goals.Preliminary task evaluation

The group originally planned to film a murder mystery titled "Love at First Bite" using actor friends, but technical issues caused them to lose all footage. They hastily redesigned the project as an interview between a detective and criminal for their school deadline. This second version lacked the production quality of the first due to limited time, equipment, and unfamiliar actors. The author notes they should have backed up footage, used proper lighting and sound equipment, and planned locations more carefully for authenticity and minimal disruptions.Presentation1

This document evaluates the progress made from a preliminary task to a final thriller film project. It summarizes that the final thriller improved upon continuity editing techniques and utilized better sound quality without external microphones. Shot quality greatly increased due to using a tripod rather than handheld filming. Image quality also saw massive improvements from selecting better lighting and locations, and editing the thriller in black and white.Evaluation Q7

1) The group used a tripod for steady shots, allowing them to keep actors in frame during zooms, improving on hand-held filming in their preliminary task.
2) They filmed from different distances and angles to show characters in different ways while keeping actors in frame, learning from framing issues before.
3) Minor script changes ensured the story flowed better, and experimenting with shots on set led to a better thriller feel than rigidly following their storyboard.
4) Actors wore specific costumes and props, and lighting/locations were manipulated to create desired scenes, unlike their preliminary task.Evaluation of finished product

- 1. DEVELOPMENT FROM PRELIM TO FULL PRODUCT (THRILLER) By: Eugenie MacDonald
- 2. PLANNING AND RESEARCH We researched are target audience for our thriller, because in the prelim we didnt have a specific audience, therefore we needed to do some more research into what audiences normally watch thrillers. We found out that 18-35 year olds should be are target audience. For our thriller storyboard we did some research on it, because in our prelim we didnt think about the structure properly and we made quick decisions. In the final film we knew it had to be a good story otherwise there would be no improvement. We created a digital storyboard which presents what the film will be like. The storyboard was detailed included shots types and camera angles that were going to use. Whereas as in the prelim we didnt go into detail.
- 3. THE CAMERA WORK In our final film we included a lot more close ups because in the prelim we received feedback that there was not enough close ups and it wasn't detailed enough therefore we decided to include close ups in are final film. In the final film we also used tracking whilst the actress was on the way to her office however in the prelim we didnt use any tracking this was because we didnt really know how to track safely. In the final film we also used panning from a distance to get shots of the scenery, however in the prelim we tried to do panning, but we didnt do it with a tripod so it was very unsteady and shaky and it didnt look very good. In the final film when we was panning, we used a tripod so it was much easier.
- 4. LIGHT COMPARISON As we filmed our final film outside and inside we used natural light at the start, where as in our prelim we was in a classroom so we had to use the room light. The location where we filmed our thriller was in an office and there was around 5 light switches, so we could have used some on and off to have some variation in the lighting, whereas in are prelim we only had 2 lights so it would be either dark or very bright.
- 5. SOUND COMPARISON In our prelim we used music from YouTube and didnt create it ourselves because we were not that confident with soundtrack pro and we ran out of time. We decided to get a James Bond soundtrack from YouTube. We improved this in are final film by creating are own sounds with non diegetic sounds and Foley sounds. We used soundtrack pro because we had learned to use it properly. In conjunction with our footage we matched the scene or action with a specific sound for e.g. the knock on doors, and the door opening and closing. Compared to are prelim we just used diegetic sound even though it was quiet, this didnt really make are prelim very appealing.
- 6. EDITING SKILLS In our prelim it was pretty basic when it came down to editing, we just selected clips, put them together edited the cuts, however we didnt use any cross cuts or match cuts even though we tried to it was just a case of that we didnt have the right camera shots to do it. In our final film we had loads of footage but as editing took place we it got cut down. We used transitions from each scene and we also used cross cuts and match cuts. In this editing process of our final film we used final cut pro which is the same software we used in the prelim In the final film we went in to much more detail and included a range of transitions, titles and also the sound.
- 7. M I S E E N S C E N E C O M PA R I S O N In the prelim our mise en scene wasnt really good as we were not organized and didnt have a proper location, we wanted a casino setting but instead we used a classroom. Also the costumes of the prelim were not good as we were just wearing normal casual clothes and not a suit or tux which you would expect normal poker players to be wearing. Compared to are final film we took a lot of consideration into our Mise en scene because we knew where we went wrong and this made it easier. In the final film we needed a good office so we managed to contact an owner of an office and use that for the day as we didnt want to use a college office as it was too small. The office we used was perfect. Also for costumes we improved a lot, we got the main character who was a detective to wear a suit which made her look like a detective instead of wearing normal clothe; we needed her too look well dressed. Final film props were also perfect as they were already in the office so we made it look as real as possible. The one problem we came across was in the the prelim and that is that the sunglasses we were using broke so we had to improvise and still use them but it didnt really look right. We didnt have any problems with props in the final film.
- 8. THE TITLES We researched the conventional orders of a typical thriller opening as we did not include titles in are prelim. We done this by the use of You tube and teaching materials on the Candi blog. We found the order and then included titles onto our final film. In the final film we used a narrative opening where the titles of the film come up whilst the film is still being played, we decided to do this because it creates a flow to the film as we didnt think stand alone titles would have this effect. When doing the titles for the final film we had to change the font size and colour, we changed the font size because it didnt really stand out and we also had to change the colour because at first it was blurred into the background and it was hard to see when receiving are feedback.
