Changes...

From our animatic we have changed the idea of having the polaroid pictures. This idea was going to be polariod pictures (well known and regularly used nowadays) relating to the main characters, Zach and Felicity. This was going to have a voice over with it to introduce and explain themselves to the audience. For example, picture of a lipstick would be related to Felicity to show her always applying make up to look good for college. We decided not to do this as it would ruin the pace of the opening and not fit in with the other footage in our film opening. Instead the main characters are introduced to Zach on the phone to his mum, checking he has his packed lunch etc and Felicity telling her younger brother to keep well out of her way in college. This still introduces the character types in the film and leaves questions to the audience about what will happen between them throughout the film.

Also, we have found some problems with the footage we flimed when editing it. These problmes maybe wrong camera angles or not leaving enough footage after the shot has been taken which we can work around with to make sure there are no continuity errors, which we have in our opening. We are re-shoot 3 shots, which is the bumping in toghether and Zach staring at Felicitys breasts becuase of contunuity problems. Re-shooting this means we have a more proffessional film opening. This will not effect our deadline beucase we are well planned and very nearly edited.
