My First Draft

Soundtrack

To produce my own soundtrack I asked for help from a friend with experience in music. These are some clips I recorded him playing. The music was played by Wil Allen.

Filming #2

Due to some continuity issues and the quality of picture in my first set of filming I will be re-filming some scenes to improve the overall quality. Issues I had before were clutter in the background and problems with lighting at the beginning of my production, this is because of the lack of light at the beginning but to improve this i have changed the narrative at the beginning from the protagonist waking up in the morning to waking up later so there is more light and so I wouldn't have to film my protagonist waking up and getting ready for the day etc. As I will be filming scenes again I will have to make sure my actor is wearing the same clothes and hairstyle. I will also need to be careful for continuity issues due to having scenes filmed of different days.

Background Music

These are some of the websites I have been looking at which most are copyright free. This was mostly just to research and get a rough idea of the music I wanted to use for my production and then ask a friend to create something similar. From the research i have gathered I think I will need 2 or 3 different soundtracks for the beginning, middle and end as I want to build the tension up slowly towards the end of the production

Update - Editing

This week I have focused on editing the clips I have filmed and getting the rough structure of my narrative. From editing I have realised that there are a few clips I will need to re film as there was some issues with the lighting and continuity. Overall I think most of the clips worked well and the dream sequence at the being of my short film was effective but from some feedback I have seen that I have used to much transitions which I will be cutting down on.
