Addng Titles

We wanted to add the titles as a group decision, but unfortunately josie was not well this day so we had to make the decisio without her we have rougly placed variouse names during the sequence, but can be moved when a more detailed decision is made, we created different titles such as the directors, producers, and also characters, me and kim just made a varied decision as what to d as josie was not in, when the computers are up and running again we will make a detailed decision.

Music

i have put the music onto a cd and it is all ready to go oto the computer but the apple macs are not workig as dont have enough mmory so i have not been able to put the music on as it would not work before half term and will not work now, as soon as the computers are working again the music will be uploaded and be abe to be placed int the film i have had this ready for a while but had no cd's to transfer the music onto but it has been done for a few wekks now but havent been able to work the mac's.

Continuity Piece

a wile back we got set a task for a continuity peace which involving filming and editing a character opening a door, crossing a room and sitting down in a chair opposite another character, with whom she/he then exchanges a couple of lines of dialogue. This task should demonstrate match on action, shot/reverse shot and the 180-degree rule. this peace of work is still waiting to be uploaded and will be up shortly.

Importance Of Opening Title Sequences!

Title sequences are a very, important part of the film and are powerful if done properly. A bad title sequence leaves the audience dissapointed with not only the beginning and will not ingage the audience to the film. opening sequences are what draws the audence in and there first imprestions of the film, this is the same affect that we want ours to give thats why we want to do a few ectra shots but todays the deadline and all so... i think we may work back into this as i hate things not finished and undone, everything needs to be perfect and up to my standerds and at the moment its not . Title sequences are the beginning of the film and they tell a slight part of the story, they are used to invite poeple into the film and to make them want to watch it further, an opening title sequence can decide poeplesa thoughts about the film and decides the first instincts of what they are seeing so it is important to make an opening title sequence interesting formal presentative and professional to give out the best possible positive effect.

A Resemblance!

i also came across this video, which resembles mine quite well even though it is in the style of animation, it has the same childlike figure drawings that are shown in my film, but in this clip they have a different purpose,the video is clearly meant to effect a large member of audiences to see how they feel and their reactions of child abuse, which is the same purpose of my video i want to see how poeple feel about child abuse after watching my film. this video tells a story through a childs drawing which also is shown in my film as my character slightly tells the story of her family through a picture.the film also resembles mine, as we both use the child to draw the picture and to tell her story.

establishing shot!

i was looking through the nspcc adverts to see if there was anything in them that responded to te beggining sequences of my film. and in this video there is a clear establishing shot that shows a block of flas similar to the ones i have used in my advert, i researched into this becase i wanted to see how it was presented in this sequence, and how they have made it to interac with child abuse.
this clip also has another section in it of the child drawing whihc i also have in my film, this has made me a bit more confident about my piece as i didn see this clip until after i had made my film and it is obvious that i had clear ideas of what should be invoved in a child abuse advert.
