Rough Cut Feedback

This week, we screened the rough cuts of our short films to our peered and received feedback on small sheets. Here is my review of this feedback. Apologies for the horrific quality of the video and my sick-sounding voice.

VERY Rough Cut

This is the rough cut for my short documentary 'Keep Smiling'. This is the bare bones of the documentary so there is no foley sound, no background music, not everything is colour corrected etc. This should just hopefully give you an idea of what I am trying to create for my final A2 Media Studies Project. I'm not even sure about the title of the documentary at this stage but at least it's starting to come together...

Filming is finished!

One Disaster After Another

Filming #2

Editing #1

After filming quite a bit of footage with Harrison, I decided to edit together what I had got so far so I wouldn't have to do a huge amount of editing all in one go. Before editing however, I decided to watch loads of videos and do lots of experiments on colour correcting footage in Adobe Premiere Pro and so I taught myself quite a few techniques. Below are some shots of my colour correction. To show the difference my colour correction has made, I cut the shot in half. The bottom half is before I colour corrected and the top half is after I experimented with colour correction.

After experimenting with colour correction I edited all the footage together from my first day of shooting. However, it is likely that a lot of this footage will be replaced with other elements such as archive footage and shots of Harrison playing instruments or recording.
