Review Progression

I have created a Kizoa to document my review progress from start to finish. I am extremely happy with the end result as I believe it looks really authentic. I have been using a review article from the magazine Little White Lies as my style model however I changed a few features to put my own personal touch on it.

Final Review

I have changed a couple features on my review however the main layout is the same. I have changed the rating from out of 10 to out of 5 as Little White Lies rate the films out of 5. I have also used the justify tool to ensure that the writing aspect of the view fills each column from one end to the other and removed the gaps between each paragraph as this is how my style model present their reviews.

Behind the Scene's Footage

When looking at the footage I have filmed I came across this piece of footage. This quite accurately displays the personality of the actors in the film and shows what they were getting up to before filming for that day began.

Review Draft 3

I have made some changes to my review and have displayed it within a stupeflix talking about what I changed, how I changed it and why. I am extremtly pleased with my progress and hope to be finish in the near future.

Editing Flashback Scenes

Day 2 of Filming

So today I headed out to Newcastle city centre in the early hours of the morning with Olivia and Ryan in order to film the flashback scenes which are scenes 3, 4 and 5. My plan for this particular day was to film scenes 3 and 4 then head to South Shields in order to film scene 5 at the market I have permission to film at. However filming the scenes took longer than I anticipated meaning I only had time to film the cuts from the scenes where Imogen and Mason are on their dates before I had to leave to travel to the market. Due to this I am currently arranging a time with Olivia where we can go back to Newcastle and finish filming the scenes.

Review Draft 2

I have created a Powtoon to display the progress I am making with my review. I am currently very happy with the way it's shaping out.

Writing the Review

Writing the actual review that will feature in my article was extremely rewarding for me. To ensure that I had included all of the typical conventions of a romance genre film review I worked closely with a style model to ensure I didn't miss out any key aspects.

Evidence of Filming

Yesterday myself and Olivia headed out to begin filming and managed to stick to schedule and film the 3 scenes that I was planning on filming. I am currently looking at the footage I have recorded and am extremely pleased with the majority of it. I ensured that I recorded aspects of the scene from different angles and positions to ensure if a problem occurred I would have other footage to use. This also allows me to have a variety of different shots to chose from when editing my film together. Below are two cuts that I filmed yesterday.

Day 1 of Filming

Today myself and Olivia (Imogen) headed out to begin filming. Sticking to my filming log sheet we filmed scenes 1, 2 and 7 as they were all being filmed in the same location. Before heading out I ensured that I was confident with using the equipment however I did struggle to get the tripod level to start with meaning I had to re-film a couple cuts as I wasn't happy with the angle of the camera. Tomorrow I am planning on re-watching all of the footage so that I can start to edit the scenes together.

Final Script

Since my last draft I haven't made any changes to the context of my script however, I have done some research into the layout of scripts and as a result of this have added in an information section at the start of each scene. This allows the script and storyline to be more clear to the actors as they know where they'll be and which other characters will be present.

Final Storyboards

Below I have uploaded my final storyboards for my short film including how long each scene will be and what sound will be present, referring to both diegetic and non-diegetic.

Contacting Locations (update)

After contacting many locations and being let down by a fair few of them I have finally received permission from a local market to film on their premise. Although not the type of location I was originally planning on using I believe this location will play an important part in making my film look as realistic as possible.
