AUDIENCE FEEDBACK SESSION

I'm pleased to say that our audience feedback session on Friday was a great success with a huge turnout! The end is nigh, with our evaluations nearly complete and our feedback piled up.

Guys, I'm just about to post a very thorough and informative sum-up of the feedback on Friday seeing as i have the questionnaires here...so keep your eyes peeled and look forward to a very interesting post :P

Screening

I won't be able to make it; I'm too ill...at home with an evil, evil, evil cold. Good luck though, hope everything goes well and that we get lots of nice feedback. I've given my CD to a couple of friends to watch so that we can get feedback from them, but I need some copies of the questionnaire for them to answer...can someone email it to me, please?

All my love and sneezes,
Mary

Definitely Finished!

Right we are now definitely finished! It is official (I think!) The credits have been sorted and now appear throughout our sequence. Ms Blackborow was happy with them so it should all be fine. The screening will be tomorrow during lunchtime, which I am very excited about! Hopefully we will get a good turnout and lots of feedback. - Bhavika

Screening Promotion..

We decided as a group today on Friday for definite as the day we hold our screening [we also finished adding in the new credits], so I thought it would be a good idea to start promoting it as soon as possible to give people enough notice, so we can get as many people as we can for some super-duper feedback :]

I set up a group on Facebook, the current favourite social networking website - I literally just did it and we already have a few members! Here's a link to the group [I'm not 100% sure it'll work so I may have to change the link later].

Screenings

Once we add in our new credits tomorrow, we're officially (although we've said it before and been wrong..) finished on the production side of things! Then we just have to screen our opening, both in school and at home for other feedback, which'll help us with our evaluations. Wooh :)
I think Facebook advertising is a PLAN and a HALF, so we'll set up a group once we're all certain & decided on the date, which'll be some time this week.

Not quite finished...

So we haven't actually completely finished yet - there's always something!!
We have to sort out some stuff with the credits because we didn't realise they weren't going all the way through the sequence - and they should be, thus [had to use that word!] making it look like the film has begun after the title - which, conventionally, it probably would, but we're all for breaking conventions [within reason of course]!
So on Monday we're going to use lunchtime to sort out some more credits - and also change the order of the ones at the beginning - but without the black title screen behind. Hopefully this will improve our opening even more, and then maybe we'll actually be finished!!

Finished!

We have now finished all our editing! I have to say it’s been lots of fun and our group in particular has learnt a lot! I will just add/emphasize a few things to the list that Bisma made and Mia added to. - We definately have learnt that it is SO important to keep filming after the action you want for each take as this makes continuity editing so much easier. - The storyboard is REALLY important and really does save time when on the actual shoot as you know exactly what needs to be done. - Lighting was a big issue. Perhaps could have been avoided if we had planned for it in advance. Or we could taken some shots in a variety of different light intensities on our first re-shoot so as to avoid another re-shoot. Now it’s time for one last regretful goodbye to my amazing group. What good times! I will miss all our shoots and the much time spent editing! -Bhavika xx
