Final Film

More Ideas for Film

Having watched and captured the video footage from our video tape, we came up with even more ideas that we could film in our next filming journey. We thought that as we still had to do video footage of the protagonist leaving his house, we came up with even more shots which can represent him in a bad way, portraying him as a bad youth in the community. In addition, we thought of retaking some shots as the camera was shaking. hence when we retake the shots, we will use a tripod which will make the shot even better. finally, we came up with a shot in the location that will make the short film even more exciting and tense. it is basically a shot of the protagonist jumping a high obstacle.

Poster & Magazine Diary

During this process, we took screen grabs of the process while making our poster and magazine. Petrit created the poster whilst Ali created a magazine review. We took our time in doing this as it was one of the main things we wanted to make outstanding from the other groups in Media A2.

Poster Original Images

Here are some photos we originally took and then chose the best one in order to create a very good poster. We had from many to choose, but our group sat down and looked through all of them and chose the most photo suitable to be included in the poster.

Poster Construction

Here are some screen captures we took from our Mac Book Pro to show that our group done it and we didn't copy any one else. It also shows the amount of work we had to put it in each stage:

We had many different ideas in which how out poster wanted to be like, here are our to main options in which we had to take into further action which one to choose. We asked around the school to our main target audience and they chose the top one. They said it suited more and the police tape also gave that better feeling to the poster, making the audience feel that he is doing something wrong, in which they later find out during the film that they are totally not.

Magazine Construction

Here are some screen captures from our magazine review. We decided that we wanted to have a review that captured the urban feel of our film and our poster, so we experimented with the background on Photoshop. We wanted to create a spray-painted, graffiti-like effect, and after working with the different paint brushes, we could find the desired effect. What we wanted to do was to frame the images with the spray-paint effect, so tried working with the images and editing the layer above. We placed 3 images on the document, one large one in the top right, one smaller in the bottom left and one smaller still in the bottom right. We then experimented with erasing some of the white layer above the images and found that by varying the size of the eraser tool we could achieve the desired effect. I think that it works well in creating a non-conventional, urban feel to the review and is in keeping with both the film and the poster in terms of atmosphere created.
