28/04/11 Log (Audience Feedback From Other Media Students)

28/04/11 Log (Audience Feedback Via Facebook)

On the 26th April, Izak posted our final project onto his Facebook profile so that we could get some feedback from people other than our peers. I was really pleased to log back into Facebook hours later and see that so many people had 'liked' the video. Above are a few of the many positive comments the we had received from my friends on facebook.

20/04/11 Log (Final Touches)

On Wednesday 20th of April, Izak, Kadeem and Tanika all came into school to make any small alterations to our final film. The alterations made were based on the audience feedback and included things such as the titles and the soundtrack. Whilst Izak and Tanika were working together to produce a more thriller conventional soundtrack, Kadeem was working on the titles, changing the colours and what they read. Izak completely changed up the soundtrack to make it sound more cinematic to create a more chilling atmosphere. As a group, we approved of the new soundtrack which we had produced and decided that we will use that soundtrack rather than the old soundtrack, as the old one sounded more horror/paranormal than crime thriller. We also approved of Kadeem titles and will be replacing the old red and white titles, with the new grey and white titles, which have been composed in a different way.

04/04/11 Log (LiveType Finishes)

Today, I (Kadeem) was assigned by the group to finish off the titles On 'LiveType'. In our rough edit, we were given advice from the other groups and was told that our titles are too dark. Because the scenery we shot in consisted of natural colours (dark and eerie) and our titles were dark red, the two colours didnt go together very well. We took the criticism on board and changed the colour of our titles to white/grey. This way its easier for the audience to read the titles and creates tension. It was also said that our titles were too big so I had to make the font smaller to reduce the the titles restricting the filming.
