Finally complete!!

Well darn it,we filmed and i edited everything but then i go to check with some people what they think of it and the comments aren't all that positive, i was given some constructive criticism which i never turn down and realised that somethings needed to be changed for the final edit. So i re-storyboarded, went to central London to film at London bridge and then ran back home to film other scenes that i would replace existing ones with. This was very time consuming, and muddled up all my schedules but I got it done!! My impulse to change stuff was juts 3 days before the deadline for the final video and it was extremely stressful to get all that done and do revision for my exam the following Friday, but i did it and Im quite proud of it, I could've done much better but at the end there it was just me filming and editing due to the last minute changes. Now just need to add some finishing touches to my website! :D

The Riot Club presentation

Finally filming!!

So as a whole cast and crew we will be going out to film over the whole of Saturday.
If our call sheet and plan goes fully according to plan then we will be able to film the whole story on this one day, If not we will go into Sunday too.


This Saturday I will be getting up at around 4am to get to London Bridge by before 6am, I'm going to go film a time lapse of the sunrise to put in our final cut. I'll be experimenting more with both time lapse photography and video tonight near my house so tomorrow it all works out perfectly.

Call sheet and more organising...

Today we are sitting as a group and putting our new schedule into a more organised format. We are also going to make a call sheet and shot list to make everything more accessible to all the cast and crew.

Cancellation :(

Unfortunately our plan to film this weekend had to be cancelled due to the fact one of our actors was really sick and could not make it.

This obviously delays our original plan but it should all still work out on time. We will be filming this upcoming weekend and all the footage should be complete. I will start editing straight after the filming, so on the monday, it will all work out.

The weather looks like it will corporate with our schedule which is always a plus and therefore it should make filming go fast and smooth.

Plan complete!

Today we sat down as a group and planned out our filming schedule to the very last minute.
We have got our cast together and that was simple since we only needed two male actors.

The actors we have cast are friends in real life, therefore making the friendship chemistry more realist and true, which will hopefully make our coursework better.

We will start shooting this saturday morning.

Story boarding and film plan

So we have our story board finalised and the animatics too. We are now just finalising the casting and film plan timetable.

Filming should start this following Saturday with the whole crew present.

All over the place...

So lately i've been very busy with many essays for other subjects and also from media but I've had enough time to carry on my website stuff and genre research is coming along well and so is our group work. We have decided on the name HAMMERHEAD PRODUCTIONS and we have started story boarding and planning who we might cast, if we might cast anyone and sound tracks to use. I've also been doing more research on colour grading for Final Cut and it looks a bit complicated but it makes things a lot better so it need i know what to do now.

Website stuff!

Lately i've been busy doing more genre research on my website. I've completed some of them but not all and now that we've done our prelim task we get to focus more on the final project which is currently being planned, and i think we're gonnna go with the idea of a a comedy or spy comedy sort of thing since we find that the hardest to execute. I really want to challenge my self and make something that is really good not because it is easy to make. Personally i think that for these AS opening credits there are a lot of horror based groups so i want to do something different. Just to spice things up a bit! :D

Prelim!

We were recently given the task to make a preliminary task with stick criteria. So this week as a group we sat down planned out story board and call sheet and filmed and edited as a group. It all went well but we sort of left it all to the last minute so don't think the task came out as good as it could've been! We'll do much better for the real thing I promise :D
