Team photo after filming

Evidence of filming- Devon Smith

Thank you to both the actors that helped create this title sequence and the two volunteer make-up artist who did the Actors make up. The filming was a success but didn't go exactly as planned. good enough though.

Below you can see the evidence we uploaded on our Instagram account of the filming session:

We felt that  the title sequence was not discreet enough so we attempted to fix this but mixing the shots we currently had. in a future I will provide a rough cut of the more discreet image and embed the first rough cut so you can view the difference.

Influences Update-Ceanne

SEVEN



Se7en (stills)
The opening title sequence of Seven establishes a mysterious and disturbing atmosphere. The colours consist of dark grey, black and hints of bright light. Throughout the sequence, Seven consists of quick shots of peculiar objects and quick flickers. Seven is a good example of a discrete title sequence as it is unclear as to what the objects mean at this stage but will be revealed once you watch the film. We have noticed that Seven consist of very quick matchshots lasting around 2/3 seconds throughout the title sequence. The colours also heightens to mood. The dark colours create a sense of gloominess and the fact that we can not see the person's face but we can only see his hands, gives the impression that he's hiding his identity. In our Title Sequence , we admired the idea of not seeing the antagonist's face therefore inspired by this we thought it would a brilliant idea if the stalkers wore white masks which again gives a quite chilling atmosphere.

Class feedback for our rough cut



Strengths
A clear establishment of the genre.(Thriller)
Included idents.
Lighting was good in some of the shots. (Close-ups)
Range of shot types.

Weaknesses
Commit to one type of title sequence- moving picture or discrete.
Jump cuts may have tiny gaps in between them.
Establishment of the location.

From the feedback, we have taken the advise from our peers and our teacher to improve our title sequence. There are some areas of our rough cut where we need to finalise some shots through editing and to remove shots which are less effective than others. We believe that our main success is portraying the story and adding variety of shots.


Blog Feedback


I have been set targets by my teacher in order to attain a higher mark in my blog. According to my teacher, my independent research is of high quality and very detailed and I use different forms of ICT competently. However, my blogs frequency has not been as good and I need to post more frequently to make sure I increase my mark. I also need to add more evidence of production work because there is a slight imbalance in my production work evidence in comparison to my independent research which doesn't allow me to obtain higher marks. In addition, I have some key blog posts that are missing from my blog, meaning that I need to post them in order to increase my mark.

Overall, the feedback received is very detailed and specific, therefore it helps set a checklist of aims to be completed, which makes it much easier to understand what area of my blog needs more work in order to achieve a higher mark and secure an A grade.
