Mistake

I have watched my film back and I have just realised a mistake which I have made. I have put '2 months later' in the wrong place, and as there is a Christmas tree in my room, you can tell that this isn't two months later. I am going to have to edit this part out as it will not make sense to people watching the film. I hadn't realised this mistake before, but hopefully I can make a quick change to it.

Recent editing

I have recently finished editing my film; adding music towards the end of it and making some slight changes to the overall film. I have tried to solve the problem of the sound for the scenes outdoors, however, I cannot seem to prevent the sound of the wind, but I am not too bothered about this, as it is realistic that it would sound like that.  

There are some parts within my film which could be a bit better, however, I often had trouble getting on to the editing suite I was using as other people were using it, which prevented me from being able to get along with my editing. I have been doing editing in my study periods, as it's hard for me to stay back after college to edit due to things which I do after college.

Camera angles

I have used a variety of camera angles within my film, and I have had to change certain angles in order to make my film look better and to prevent any mistakes; such as the fact that my room has mirrored furniture, so I have to make sure my reflection is not in the mirror.

This is my creation of the angles I have filmed from in my bedroom. As you can see, I have filmed from a variety of different angles.
N.B-Where the draws are in this image, there is a christmas tree as I filmed at christmas, although this makes no chnages to the angles and the filming.

This is the angle I used for my scenes in the kitchen. I could keep all of the characters in focus using this angle, and it allowed me to zoom in and out for added effect.

This the the angle I used for the outdoor filming down the drive. It was useful as it allowed both character's to be seen clearly, as the focus was on both of the characters. 

These are the angles which I used for the scenes in the bathroom. These both contain zooms, so it was essential that I had a good angle in which the zoom would focus only on one thing. I spent much time focusing on finding the right angle, and I eventually chose these ones. 

Sound and music used in my film

I am going to be adding some music and sounds to my film over the next couple of days. I will be getting some help with this as I am not too sure on how I actually do this.
The music/sounds Ihave chosen are as follows:
Taylor Swift-Never grow up-End scene with Naomi on the bed. This will carry on playing through the credits and will fade out with a black screen which will be held for around 6-7 seconds. (This will be around 30-40 seconds in total)

Never grow up

Editing

I have been editing the final pieces which I filmed the other day, and everything seems to be going well. I have put all of my film together, and the total running time is 03:55. I am considering making the end credits a bit longer in order to push my film up to 4 minutes.
I will be uploading my film without any sound over the next week; and then I will add the sound to it and upload it with sound.

Filming-Thursday 7th March

I completed the rest of my filming on Thursday. I had about 7 shots left to film, which included outdoor sequences. Where it was easy to film, there were a few minor complications; such as the weather-it was very cold and was beginning to rain, so I had to use the shots I had (I had a few to choose from, although I would have liked a couple more). Another problem I have discovered is the sound of the out-door scenes-it's quite loud, and although I;ve made changes to the volume, the wind and passing cars can be heard loudly. I wanted the traffic to be heard, maybe not quite as loud, but in order to keep the film feeling realistic; my house is on a main road, so the noise couldn't be prevented at any time really, as there's always a busy flow of traffic around the area.
I completed the indoor shots, and overall I am quite pleased with how these went, although I did make a few changes to the parts I was filming, because I tried the original shots I had planned to film, but it didn't seem to work very well.
I am going to be editing the parts I have filmed over the next two days.
