Today we were given a scene from a film as a puzzle.We had to put it in to order this was much harder then i had expected .First i named each shot and labeled the location.Then i watched each clip and started placing the shots in the order i thought worked best.

Today i made a storyboard for a scene in the film There would be blood.From todays lesson i have learned that a storyboard does not have to be so detailed as it is to time consuming and ristricts the director from being creative .

Evaluation

Overall i am pleased with the film i think the idea was very good but could have been filmed better.The areas i would improve in would be the filming as i was directing next time i will make sure the camera is steady to avoid shake shots.I would also have more close up shots to add drama and to show the characters expressions.
To improve the production i would retake the shots of the vase falling and make sure i do the white balance.Also i think the scene at the start of Rachel is too long so i would retake that shot and use more close up shots to make it more interesting and have more dialogue .The reason for so much continuity is that we filmed the shots on different days so their was obvious areas.
Evaluating my contribution to, Production


I was director for the production. I was also in three photographs at the beging of the film which are used to tell the story befor the scene in the hospital .I also edited half the movie using the mac computers cuting out shots we dident need .I n the production the props i bought was fake blood which i made using red food colour mixed with a little green to make the blood look darker.

I done the treatment and the storyboard.When i was brainstorming for a idea of the best storys i felt a woman that was being chased by a ghost was the best.I think this story was a good one as i thought it was very different and creative.
On tuesday we showed Chrish are film and he said we need to have a chase elemnt in the film .So we filmed two extra shot on thursday one of Rachel runing out the hospital room and another of Rachel running out the hospital.We finished editing the movie on the same day adding music which worked well with the movie but i think we should change it to somthing that is more dramatic and scary.We showed the finished movie to the class the feed back was good with some creative critism which i will keep in mind when doing another production.


We have filmed the shot of the vase falling in the medical room .We still need to film the scene of Rachel crying we were unable to do this shot so Charlotte will take the video camera home and film the last scene .We have imported all are filming on the mac computers .We deleted any shots that we are not going to be using .We have not competed filming so we are not ready to edit. I am hoping to finish filming by thursday so we can start editing and add the finishing touches.
On friday we took pictures using a still camera these photographs will be used befor the chase scene to tell the audience what happens in the film befor the scene.The photographs werent quite as i had expected them to be.We were still not able to finish are filming as the medical room was vacant.So we will film on monday.
