Here is a link to our preliminary video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCQAbmzz9jo
While filming this we got a feel for who would be best for which role, the video was very amateur and this why we swapped the roles when filming the actual film. Although we got a variety of shots and some dialogue the film is obviously a first attempt and just shows us getting to grips with whats going on.Comparisons between the two
As you can see from this picture the text is very large and takes up most of the shot, when editing the actual film we obviously had to change this. I was shot in the prelim talking and we felt that I was the strongest actor so I was chose to be the survivor in the opening.We also put different effects on to the actual picture, when making the film we wanted to give it a dark, grim, feel. That is why we put a darker effect on it, we learnt how to put different effects on clips after editing the actual prelim video. As you can see from the two photos below the is a contrast in the lighting between the two shots as the prelim shot is quite bright with nothing changed and the second shot has been darkened and the contrast has been changed.
We also used different shots when showing our
main character We used close ups at a high angle when shooting the prelim. However we felt this look wasn't right for our film. We didn't want the character to be the sole focus of the shot, that is why we showed the deserted hills in the background to show how far the traveler has come from.
Not only is there massive differences between the prelim and the final cut there were also different drafts that we made when trying to get to the final piece All of this helped us to get the right effects we wanted for our video and it taught us a lot editing these videos.
