"Watch Out!"

This is a clip that i created from a BBC film. I looked at the film and tried create something that was totally different from the original piece. In order to prove that I am capable of using 'IMovie' this was created. Today, We visited CLC which is where we were taught 'new tricks' to the software.

We Actually Made It To Southend!

(Please don't judge, We forgot our cameras, So we had to rely upon Blackberrys 3.2 'awful' megapixel camera... But none the less, This is our proof)

Me & Tasha went to southend for the day, Even though sligtly windy, I beleive we managed to gain some good footage. To make extra sure, that our trip was not wasted, We filmed everything atleast twice. Admittedly, fairly difficult too film steadily with the wind, we tried to film in places with as little wind as possible - for example, hiding behind a shed.

We used the Southend Pier like we said, Which luckily had no visitors on except us. Which means that we don't have to worry about any intruders in our filming, and also means that our film will look like the pier is deserted. Hopefully, this will help add some mysterious to our filming.

'The Potatoes' In Action

As time is of an essence, We've been messing around with different shots what we thought would be ideal for our final peice. We changed the lighting on some certain clips, and We learnt how to edit music, add font, and edit and cut film.
We came up with this, Even though it has no plot, whatsoever, We are quite pleased with it, as its proving our skills.

The song was chosen because we felt it fitted in with our clips, as We sped most of them up because the felt like creating a short and upbeat film.

Preliminary Exercise

Its because of this, We've been labeled with a name of 'The Potatoes'. Of course, We aren't planning on using that as our finishing name, but it'd do for the time being.




I beleive that if i was to re-do this clip, I would make it more interesting by recording with some new angles. For example, An birds-eye, Over the head shot would make it interesting, and give the Audience a sense of power. When Nada walks in, We could have followed her feet walking, Which may have looked effective as sends out an intriging image.

I beleive that the problem with this clip is that it remains with the same shot for most of the time. Even though, We start with a panning shot and follow Nada to the center, We then follow with two face shots
, It doesn't make it look as interesting as can be. From 00:10 onwards We choose to use the same shot, which - for future reference - may loose the audiences interest.
