Rough Cut Feedback

Cammy:

  • Cool
  • looks good
  • but at 1:30, its mainly arm in the shot(address that in editing)
  • and that little thunder crackle when the marbles drop doesn't sound too good (audio) 
  • and when the marble is held up to the light
    yeah I like that (song at the end and credits)

    Anna:
    Amazing bro!
    Wish mine was as good as this ¬.¬


    An actual film maker:
    Dog overused.
    Sounds coule be better (effects)

ROUGH cut


Still unsure about the style and the colouring. Just got the timeline in order so yeah.

Prop by prop

So this is the box Anthony will receive in the post. Lovely looking thing with a nice finish. Found this in my loft. A few scratches and knocks only add to the authenticity.

I particularly like the design on the sides. Engravings are important in my book. 


These are the set of marbles that Anthony will receive in the post. Including the pink one that will ultimately take his life.
Postal box complete with postal label. Courtesy of Tiger Music. To be delivered by the postman. 

Solicitors letter that will arrive with the marbles. I thought I did well to recreate a real letter. Including the letterheads and disclosure panel.
This is the marble game Albert will be playing. I surrounded the inner marbles with a layer of white, white being pure and religious. Almost like a ritual board the pinky marble that kills Anthony is on the very centre circle. 

Filming schedule.

Was originally meant to be filming on the 5th and 6th of February, but my original actors have pulled out (not replying). After a regrouping with myself, I have enrolled a new set of actors and am filming on the 15th of February at 3pm. I have created shot lists and script updates.

Pictures to follow!

Creating the review

So initially, I wanted to replicate a film reviewing magazine such as Empire/Total Film. However, I couldn't seem to make a page layout that looked anything remotely or anything like those of the magazines. Instead I started with a plain black background, then made a green and blue, neon like gradient.
For the top left of the photo I took a photo of the main actor Daniel in a urban setting with a circular lensed camera. I then applied said photo (below) to the top left of the background.
For the 'Meter of Interest', I created a small photo with a criss cross/graph paper look to then draw upon a line graph.
After the review looking a bit plain once I had installed the text, I decided to put a picture of my friend as the reviewer. I received his total consent for his picture and he was more than happy to help. 

With all the aspects put together, the review was finished.

Final Review!

After feedback I was told to do something with the space to the right of the first page, so I incorporated a fun and quirky interest meter! Tell me what you think.

Film Review

Could not attempt a review without it looking like a bad copy, so I ignored the layouts of Empire and Total Film and attempted my own.
