Overview of filming the main task

There were a lot of difficulties when in the making of our product, a lot of obstacles were also put in our way when in the production of our media product. We had filmed all of our scenes, mostly in the dark so that it would look more suited to the genre we had chosen. Unfortunately, the lighting was too dark to see anything we had filmed; We tried to lighten the clip when we came to editing it, however this would not work and so we decided it would be best to start the filming again but in the day this time round so we could make sure we had a clear picture with perfect lighting. We were only able to get through half of our filming before we had to stop filming - due to the lighting, so we planned to film again the next day, however it unexpectedly rained and so we were not able to film as it would not look right with the rest of our clips. This was incredibly time wasting as we were so far behind anyway. However, some good did come out of this because the following day, due to it raining the day before, we were able to film the puddle clip perfectly.

We then began to edit, the time we had left became a big issue as it didn't seem we were going to be able to finish the filming, and if we did it would not be as high quality as it should be.
We were able to find extra time to make this issue solved in some way, however some points were not finished. The dietetic sound in the background of all of the clips were very loud and did not flow with each other, we were unable to find the time to fix this as we were more concerned about how the film looked.

We found it very easy to put all of the different clips together as Final Cut Pro was very easy to use. All of the different effects we used looked really good too, like they were actual flashbacks for example.

We uploaded the music we used from youtube to find un-copyrighted music, we found a good piano instrumental which fit in with our genre, looked good in our film and helped our opening sequence to flow.

Overall, as well as our preliminary we learnt a great deal from our main task. If we do anything like this again, we will defiantly get better and we will pay more attention to the time we have, and plan more efficiently.
