Technical Difficulties

We were not able to do anymore editing and filming due to technical difficulties with the editing on the laptop and the problems with the actors.
Where we are so far
We have recorded the first storyboard "the incident" scene which runs for 50 seconds, however there is a change in the storyline as we were not able to use the extras due to the amount of people unreliable to work with. Our alternative idea was to set the scene in a near park with the male character alone. This seemed to work out better as it was easier to direct and film but as had a time limit we had to move from frame to frame quickly without disregarding the fact that we still had to film at a high quality standard. i envision a more fitting storyline to carry on the film with.



To make a more effective impact on the audiences viewing we thought about what codes would show violence and hurt. We came up with putting fake blood on the actors t-shirt, this leaves the audience questioning what injury the actor may have sustained. This scene is our opening as it starts with a flash back that is entertaining and captures the audiences attention, as if they're not concentrating then they'll miss important links within the film. this is also our opening choose as it is a good lead on to unravelling the rest of the film.


Entwined in these shots are a few clips where it is from his point of view, we thought about putting this in as from the audiences view they can feel more involved with the film as it's suggesting your in his shoes. We added affects on these clips making the vision disorientated linking in with him feeling confused and unsure.

We choose to have non-digetic sound as we thought it fit best, the out of breathe running, braking branches the heavy pants shows the feebleness and despair he is going through.
Our plan of action on the filming status will be the wedding scene and the completion of editing of this will be done on the Saturday 20th and Sunday 21st. We are fully equipped to do so as we have the wedding dress and both male and female actors willing to film on these set dates.
