Video comments

Hello ppl,
Here are a couple of comments emailed to me recently about our final trailer :
Dear Zainab

I saw the short film which you and your friends have produced and directed.I liked it so much because it reveals the unseen power in our life . People might name it with too many names , one of these is Ghost. The film  very well shows mystery of the unknown . Actresses were marvelous ,as if they were in film industry for years. The editing was really good. Congratulation and I wish you all the best

Bloopers and updates

Hello Checkmates...
I wondered what Feo has done with our trailer since Ms Wigley saw it last Wednesday ... has she given the final version to Mr Babu on the following day ... did the voice over for the note ? I'm really unsure of what has been going on over the last couple of days ....

Feo - please ring me or text me something ..

Zainab :S - I'm confused .
P.S where did the bloopers go ? they are still not uploaded onto here ...

:/

Final

I'm not sure what other parts need redoing apart from the title perhaps have that with a similar effect that was applied to the : we are all pawns in a queens game '

(WELL DONE EVERYONE - WE DID IT ) .

:) Zainab x

A trailer-just have a look at the techniques they use . + some posters .

Seeing as Ms wigley gave us feedback on Monday she stated that :
Inverted commos are needed in the reviews -clearly that is not the case .
The editing is on its final voyage ! .
The soundtracks are suited towards the target market .
Just a few bits and pieces left to do now .

Scream 4 trailer : have a look at the conventions used :) .

:)

Look at the use of :

fonts , pictures ,colours used , connotoations and denotation . I think we could perhaps use somethign from here in our own trailer ...(the ending perhaps..hint hint girls!)

By Zainab .

Track progress @6pm sunday !!

Hello ,
So far (zainab,siva and feo) have done most of the editing at Feo's.
New soundtrack has been implemented as the old one got a bit boring ! .
Credits - have been done
The voice over -has been recorded and added into the trailer .

Harpreet- your job is the camera angles when we reshoot the friends scene.

Things for sunday

Ok here goes a lot...
Firstly the note - that siva holds I was thinking of doing an animation for that using that online title thing !! it might look good or bad or perhaps just to write it on a surface with black pen ... as an extra shot lasting 6 seconds maybe more .
The title is now done I have sent this to feo
The extra shots needed : Feo in the location !! (loo) .
The lighting has to be fixed if we want to redo those bits maybe at feo's .
The sound - is now done as well for the last bit ( last 10-20 seconds ) I showed it to siva on friday and she liked it :) .
One thing though sometone has to record the actual sound as I cant find it on youtube and i did download it of itunes -sorry for that !.
its called green t.v though its a channel .
Editing - this must all be done and dusted as a team of four !! on sunday as well .
Feo- I cant see the shopping list (LOL just joking)

TRAILER...

There are few shots of people running in the forest.The use of sound is really good ,we could perhaps use that soundtrack when one of start running to create tension. Plus, the use of fonts in the trailer is quite good.

Action plan for Monday 14th- Friday 18th of Feb! And Halfterm... (Ferhiyo)

Monday the 14th - Friday the 18th - Schedule!

:: There is a couple of things which I need to discuss with you all tomorrow!

Note: This week is our last week to use the school to film – so we need to get our acts together – film what we need to film, and start as soon, as we can.

Here is a list of what we need to do:

We need to re-film the friend scene again (It won’t take long so don’t worry, and this can be done anytime this week) – I thought of a much better setting, and I added extra dialogue to this scene, which I will share with you all tomorrow morning.

Make sure everything is taken out from the locker, by Friday! - the paints, and everything else that we will be using as iconographies!

I've got some screen fonts etc - credited by film review and others - I'll bring in my notebook tomorrow!

Half-Term

Friday 25th til Sunday the 27th - WE NEED TO...

Meet up, around 1:30-2:30pm, (we'll decide a meeting point) and make our way to Ruislip Woods - rehearse the scenes that we will be filming till it starts to get dark (We're going to keep re-filming if it is not so great, until it's perfect - I'm happy to stay until late - so we need to make sure everything is done correctly the first time round) - no laughing or messing about - I'm serious! I'm sure none of us what to make another trip to the woods in the dark!


Make sure you bring something to eat, as we're staying out there for quite a while - and BTW we cannot go out to purchase refreshments/lunch - cause that would be wasting time. 


Bring your costumes/or wear them - it's up to you!


WHAT YOU WILL NEED TO BRING...


The obvious - Camera and Tripod!


The paints/symbols etc - needed for the treasure hunt! 


The red food dye/colouring - ( Someone needs to buy that! )


Make-up/Make up wipes (Just incase we might need it).




Add a comment below/or edit this post if I have missed something out!


Again, sorry for coming across as bossy/instructing - We will all benefit from this in the end, I promise! (:
