Our Feedback

Strengths:
- The music worked really well.
- There are a few shots that are effective

Things To Be Worked On:
- Titles
- A wider variety of shots and angles
- Make the argument clearer

This gives me a good idea on what we need to work on, and it shouldnt be too hard to fix.

Feedback For Hannah & Emma

L3 - GROUP 2 (Hannah & Emma) Film Opening Rough Cut from cmdiploma on Vimeo.



I thought this was a good opening, but there is some little tweaks to be made, which the group probably know. But a lot of strengths

Strengths:
- I thought the music went really well with the characters, because the lyrics can connect to them.
- There is a wide variety of shots, and angles. I particually liked the shot when the camera zooms in the mirror, and zooms back out. This shows the two characters well, and gives a very teen feel.
- I like that they added some humour by overdoing the geek, and the shot with the tipex and nail polish.

Things to work on:
- Titles
- In a few shots i could still hear some backround noise, i dont know if this was intentional, but it may be worth a look.
- A few of the shots are too shaky, but most work well.
- There is a gap between clips, but i believe this is going to be filled in.

Over all i think the group have done very well, and theres only a few things they need to work on. Well Done ! XD

I thought his opening of tenacious D is the most similar opening to ours. Mostly because its about the young boy who runs away from his home, beacause his family dissaprove him playing rock music. A similar story line to ours.

My opie


this is my opie which i created in photoshop.

first draft

we have done all the filming for our draft. We filmed the first part in tom B house, and then mill road, cycle bridge, and parkers piece. we have done some but still have some editing to do. We have put all the clips in the right order, and timings (there may be some tweaks). We still need to add the titles, and music.

Mine and Svens prelimary task



This is the prelimary task that me,sven,christina, and charna filmed. The aim of the task was to get several different shots like long shot then close up then over shoulder shot etc. Basically looking like we had several differnt cameras at one time. Me and Sven then went on to editing this in final cut express.

L3 LIAM (A Pure Genius Productions) IDENT from cmdiploma on Vimeo.



This is my final productions ident. I got several different images, and put the together in photoshop. Then I put that into final cut express, and animated it. I used fades and key frames in order to get it how i wanted. I went into garageband and picked out some sounds that worked well with my ident, I finally added it to my ident clip and it was done.

L3 Group 3: TOM B & LIAM - OPENING SEQUENCE ANIMATIC from cmdiploma on Vimeo.



This is mine and Tom B's animatic storyboard. We took pictures of the postic storyboard we drew, and made them into a movie on final cut. We have no sound at the start of the clip and that is because we want natural sounds then. the music starts on the shot of the hand pressing the ipod. We added the title just after that because we thought it would work better than putting it at the end. If we did, it would look more like a trailer.

This is a 3x3 grid of screenshots of a possible film opening. We took a selection of shots of google, and pasted them in the order that they would be shown in the opening. We then put text over the images showing our titles we created the previous week. 
We have decided to do a young protagonist film. It will be about a boy running away from home and tries to make it into the music business.
