Evaluation Notes

Monday 9th March 2015:

We discussed our company name "Nightmare Productions" with our teacher but after speaking with her we discussed that our company will specialise in horror and thriller films and T.V. We are aware of the connotations around "Nightmare".

Tuesday 10th March 2015:

When completing the animatronic we realised our opening was longer than the time allowed so after discussing we decided to change our storyboard.

Tuesday 24th March 2015:

During our lesson we had technical issues with our editing - The college's apple mac couldn't identify our film and footage and with help from a technician we were able to save our footage but lost all our editing.

Editing our Film

 
 

 


We have edited some of out footage for the opening of our film, Night Runner. In our group we decided to experiment in out editing by adding a variety of different audio and visual effects which I researched and gathered from Royal Free websites. We firstly tried increasing the volume and changing the sound tone on Final Cut Pro in specific scenes to try and increase the tension which would create suspense to later hook the audience.
We then varied the colour shades on the footage as we wanted the lighting to be dark to create an atmosphere, we changed the contrast to get away from the natural lighting. Then by adding the chosen music it allowed us to see what worked well and what didn’t. From this it was clear to see that we needed more footage as the quality was poor.

Nightmare Productions Ident



Me and Molly took charge in creating our companies Ident, we decided to create a lightening theme to match our companies logo. This is effective as it attracts the audience into our companies theme of horror film producing.
