Feedback from Miss Stone

I need to:
  • Produce my whole completed storyboard including credits
  • Confirm who would produce and distribute my film and actually look into why those companies produces films and what sort of film they produce
  • Further evidence of rough cuts or final opening sequence within the next week.
  • Upload the music and sounds that will be used. ✓

 I'm going to digitalize Big Ben in my opening sequence to show that the film is set in the future.

My logo design.

I think the alliteration of clapperboard creations combined with the old film reel gives the logo an elegant appearance while keeping it obvious that it's a film production company.

Changes and reasons for change

In the practice phone-call sequence I'm very happy with the location the camera angles and the music which I wrote for my final peice. I used a composition in E minor modulating through C with a mixolydian tone to create an effective and dramatiuc peice which slowly picks up speed to build up to a climax, I think it worked effectivly and will keep it.


In the rough cuts I realised that I need to change the time of day. In the sequebce I noticed night is a bad choice of lighting to film in. Instead I'm going to film the final opening during the day. Also I'm going to write a more obvious script as the reasons events take place have to be clear and coherant.


I will also make sure that I have a reliable cast and crew to help me film as in the rough cuts I had to play a character while operating the camera because an actor dropped outl.

Practicing with the music I'm planning on using, also practicing camera angles and editing for a phone call sequence which will appear in my final opening.


I think for a nighttime sequence this is well lit and easy to see for the msot part but there are several moment where it is difficult to see what is going on. I think the music is appropirate due to it's build-up and think it effectivly reaches a dramatic climax.
