Pre-Production:
Concept
Script
- During the course of script writing we had to re-write our script several times in order to make sure we were aware of the message and representation we were displaying
-This is an example of one of the changes made later on in the project. The end of the script was changed after the original script was published. Due to the original script being done on a 15-day trial of Celtx I was unable to make an edit to the script. Therefore this is the last correction, which I put up separately on our group blog. This correction is instead of the last 'reality' shot.
Production:
During the production stage my main role was the audio technician. I was often had come up with alternate ways to record audio on this role such as when filming on a wharf, I didn't want to take the audio equipment with all the different cables on to the wharf for safety reasons, therefore I instead recorded a voice over later on and added it in with editing. I also set up lighting on many occasions including the bed room scene in the 2 minute sequence and the logo sequence. The logo sequence required me and my team having to experiment with different orders and positions of the lights to see what positioning would look best.
Post-Production:
In post-production my main job was the editing. I solely did all the editing in the project, including the logo sequence. This took up a lot of time so I was also setting jobs for the other members of the team such as getting Shayla to create the opening credits on photoshop for me to edit it into the project later. This aspect of post-production required a lot of focus and attention to detail as it would include a lot of tedious viewings to try and improve the product. For example sometimes I would spend up to 20 minutes of editing on 5-10 seconds of film, trying to make sure all the footage, diegetic audio, non-diegetic audio and effects were lining up together to make the product look as professional as possible.

ReplyDeleteConcept and Script embedded documents are very small and difficult to read; this is a sizing issue that is relatively simple to fix. Andrew in particular has gotten quite good at it. The actual content of these documents is fine in both cases; now let's refine the presentation.

(Additionally, it would be good here to have the original AND final versions of the script here rather than simply referencing them being on the group blog; YOU know where to find it on the group blog, but we want to make it easy on our examiners, yes?) :)
