Editing

Today in class me, Connor and Sarah edited the footage we have so far. This took some time as we had to arrange how long each walking section would be and where the jump shots would go and the quick 1 second shots would fit in between them. However, we feel as though we have got quite a lot completed and are happy with our progress.
This is shown below;

re-preparing to film

As we have decided to change our main character, we also had to print out more pictures of the new main character and stick them up on the wall into a heart. This took some time however, we were also able to do some filming of the new main character typing at the computer. We are hoping to be finished filming by friday as we have got a lot finished. 

Below are some photos of us preparing  to film;

Filming

As we changed our main actor, we tried to get as much new footage as possible by filming today. We feel as though we got quite a lot of filming completed and only have a little bit left. We are hoping to get all of the filming finished by the end of this week in order to edit and complete the coursework by the deadline next friday. 

Below are some photos of the filming we carried out;

Change of plan

Due to one member of our group, the main actress not being able to always show up we have decided to change the plan. In order to do this, we changed our main character to someone not in our original group and also changed the two friends to myself and another person also not in our group. As we have had to change the main actor we need to re film the footage we already have, however the individual we had picked for our stalker could no longer by the stalker and therefore we changed the stalker to a member of our group.We are hoping to get more done this way and get it completed quicker. 

'Kiss the girls' - 1997

I have just finished watching the thriller; 'Kiss the girls' made in 1997 by Gary Fieder, starring Morgan Freeman, Ashley Judd and Cary Elwes. The story is of a Washington DC. detective who travels to North Carolina to investigate the apparent kidnapping of his niece. Aided by the escaped kidnapee Kate McTiernana he cross hunts down the tow kidnappers, one operating under the name of 'Casanova', competing against each other to outdo each other as they seize and destroy their trophy captives. As with most mysteries, this one has the usual red herrings, false leads and dead ends. Freeman is excellent as Alex Cross and heroine Judd is a study in grit and survival and is very effective in a finely nuanced role. The opening credits to the film were very effective as the music was very creepy sounding and it contained some extremely disturbing images, creating the atmosphere of tension to the film right from the beginning. The North Carolina location lensing, music score and cinematography are all very good. 

Our finished viual mind map

Today during lesson, me and Sarah edited the footage for our visual mind map, in order to pick the best one we shot. Once the footage was put onto final cut express, we realised our original problem of the writing not being able to seen was not in fact a problem. This was because we realised the writing could infact be seen on the computer, the camera just didn't seem to pick it up clearly. Although the first footage had been ruined as we believed we could not see the writing and so had spoken over the top of it, we couldn't use this. However, we did manage to get a deccent capture of the visual mind map. This is shown below;
