Our Final Video

This is the final version of our video. Overall, we're happy with it, however there are some continuity problems, and also other errors for example people in the background who weren't supposed to be in the shot. Also things like eye-level match and lighting were a problem. We also had problems with loacation, as it was hard to find a location that matched the script we had to base our video on. The wind also caused some sound problems, as the microphones on the camera we used was very sensitive and therefore picked up a lot of unwanted noise. We also had a little trouble with acting, as it took many takes to get the shot we were after. As for the continuity issues, we are hoping to eliminate those errors from our final piece by practising with a continuity task.

Shooting and Uploading

We successfully shot our footage using facilities in school, however we had a lot of takes and therefore whilst uploading the footage to the media server, we had to delete quite a lot of scenes. The reason we had so many different takes was because the actors we chose had trouble with keeping a straight and serious face whilst filming, so we had to film a particular scene many times in order to get the one we wanted. We've deleted all the takes we don't need, and we now have all of the footage we need uploaded onto 'the prisoner' on the media server, and we will edit the shots using the adobe premier software to make it flow into a movie.

My Storyboard

This is the storyboard I created for my movie. I chose to make it on a website called xtranormal.com. It was a simple website to use and I enjoyed making it. I was able to control the dialogue, camera angles, and body language of the characters. The storyboard will help to create an understanding of what we need as a group in our movie.
