Preliminary Task

                                            

Above you can see our Preliminary task

We filmed this short film using hand held recorders and we edited it using a piece of software called Final Cut Pro 10. During the making of this short film we learnt many things such as when filming. we had to take the same scene many times then choosing the best one in post-production this would make things a lot easier and productive. We also first did a run through the whole story without actually filming, so everyone knew what to do at the time of filming.We also kept a scene running a little longer so in post we could trim and add transitions at the end of each clip. Also when editing the film we found that including transitions and using the stabilisation mode using Final Cut Pro really helped make the scenes run smoothly.However very little stabilisation was needed as most of scenes where shot on a tripod.

Consent form

Here is the consent form that we gave to our actors to read and sign. This aspect of the production was important so we could see what our actors were happy with doing and what they were unhappy about. Therefore, this meant that there were no negative suprises along the way of filming and editing.
