panic room

When watching the trailer of panic room, I really like the way the camera zooms in and moves without stopping. I can image how the hull house is covered with equipment for the camera. In like the way the camera shots are taken differently which makes the film tensed. I choose this video because when the class watched our film they said that it reminds them of panic room because the women gets killed in her own house. The Trailer is really fast which builds up tension and mades the audience watch it again because you did not see much everything because its fast. i think its really fast because when people panic they run around , not knowing what they are doing(really fast). i really like the sound track because it starts nice and normal ,calm music but later in the trailer everything gets mix up and troble comes into the house. so at that point the music is all creeyp. The music even reminds me of Saw.

audience feedback

Evaluation

8. Audience feedback and comments on about the film.

When filming the audience talking about our film, I was quiet impressed with the feedback we had. I though our film was not building put tension towards the end but from what the audience said I think we made our gaol.

When getting the audience feedback I think we have done well in our film. What I think we could have improved is the editing. Towards the end the film was slow with the editing which did not make the ending really tensed, which why i asked one of the audience if they though the speed of the timing was good. I think for the sound, some places in our film did not have music or sound effects because in the shining when some thing tensed going to happen there is slices which made the audience think what’s going to happen. We tried this but I did not work really so I think we should of have really quite instrument to not made it boring at one point. Other then that I think as a group of 4 we have done really well.

Q.7 These are two different video clips from our title sequence and and our preliminary task that practice our filming and editing. When i looked back at both video clips then you can see the development as the editing has become a lot better.


Miss Call-This was our preliminary task that we did as a group to get use to the editing programmes. In this practice filming we had shots that were too long and cuts that weren't sharp enough, but i felt that it came out really well.

The Duo -When filming and editing this I felt that because of our precious task when putting together the 'Miss Call' we were able to make this better. I felt that the editing and camera shots were really good and precise. The cuts and instrumental are quite effective in this film.

Evaluation


Question:- What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why ? How will you address your audience?


To make our film The Duo, a big cinema hit ! there are steps in order for this to happen.


In Order to get viewers for our film we to make our target audience Very Clear; therefore the rating for the film is




To promote our low budget independent film, i would send emails out to my Friends and Family. This would secure definite numbers for the screen viewing on The Duo.


I would create a group on the social networking website Facebook. The group would have information on where screen viewings of The Duo would be shown. And in order for Huge turn out, we can give our audience FREE merchandise. A goodie bag contained with T-Shirts, a mug, lanyards with the The Duo printed on it. I would print off filers and posters and put them up around my college and at my work place.

The film showcase can be shown at a local cinema near my college


Then after several film festivals i would re-watch the film and do anything i can to make it better. After this perfecting process i would eventually post The Duo on Youtube; and
Take It From There.

Here is a independent film that i found very good, it's called Half Nelson it has 159,135 Views.
This trailer is roughly 2 minutes and 30sec long, from the short opening views can see the full incite to watch the film is going to be.

The editing: Evalaution

What we did when editing?
- Cross cut
- Match cut
- Parallel editing
- Cut in

What we used when editing the film to make it more tensed!
When editing we used parallel editing to Create tension, can show multiple points of view and can create dramatic irony when the characters are unaware of events unfolding away from the main action. We used cut-away to show the two characters coming together. Example the girl is in the bathroom getting ready to have a bath and then a cut to the killer breaking into the house. This type of shot builds tension. We used cut in to show the detail of the phone (who is calling). We used this because it build tension and can create a dramatic irony when the details being shown may not be apparent to the character. We used match cutting where the killer breaks into the house. We see the killer outside trying to break into the house and then there is a cut to the killer opening the door from inside the house.

When editing we put the clips together which fit together like the killer’s part was separate and the girls part separate so that we do not get them mixed up. After we had all the clips together to make the timing right we mixed them up together to have the girl in the bathroom and at the same time the killer coming into the house. After finishing editing we worked on our title sequence.
