consideration of topic

during our discussions as a group over the last few weeks we thought about the topic of our film. as it is to do with a paedophile and rape etc we realised it is quite a sensitive topic and we have to make sure what we include in our opening sequence is suitable. we have to consider that this topic could be quite upsetting for some people therefore we decided to make very clean cuts and only to hint at the themes we are trying to portray rather than being to explicit.

week 6

this week we have continued to cut our footage down and we also have started to order it. we decided to edit the footage as we put it in order rather than order it and then edit it as a lot of shots had to be fragmeted for our montages therefore this would make it easier. we have also been thinking about music for our opening sequence and what sort of music we will use and if we will make it or not.

week 5

during week 5 we focused on the credits and started to edit our film. we had to first upload all of our filming on to the computer and then we opened it on final cut express which is the program we are using to edit our footage. this week we have also spent a lot of time on our independent blogs and making sure we are all up to date. we started to choose the shots we wanted to use and cut them down as we had a lot more footage than needed as we experienced with different types of shot and angles for each scene.
