Short movie clip - Away

In our movie clip we thought about the camera angles through with our story board before we went out and filmed. We had a few errors but they were easy to resolve and some worked slightly to our advantage, the biggest step back was when another group filmed over our movie for about a minute but I still managed to safe it when I was editing.
While editing i opened the movie with a fade and a low camera shot so it wasn't a sudden beginning, i also muted the diagetic sound and added a Beethoven track. After this scene i faded out for a smoother transaction between my cuts. I deleted the next scene as it had charlie (the other actor) in the background and re-filmed it without him, luckily we noticed this while we were out filming so this didnt corse much extra hassle. After this is a very short scene of me sat on a bench which wasn't that important but in the end brought everything together and came in handy, this fades in and out within seconds. This is when charlie starts his journey towards the bench, before the editing this scene was really noisy so i still have the diagetic sound muted. He joins me on the bench in a two shot, after a short section of our clip it changes to an other shoulder shot, still of us both on the bench. I fade this out and focus on charlie giving me a watch with a close up and in slowmotion so you can see that it's an important part of the movie. This cross-cuts back to us talking on the bench, this is when we both leave and again i have the diagetic sound.

Away Script

 Although my group and I followed the script we changed it enough to make it our own with added and changed lines. We also took bits out to make it easier to memorise and so it didn't go on. We also made it easier to edit from the beginning by putting a few notes on to help remember our idea's.
Once we looked through the script we started a story board.

Story board

Although it's not A* art quality we made it so that we could look back on it and understand it. We made sure that there were lots of different angles to keep the audience interested. We also added the actor's actions along the bottom to make it nice and clear. We moved a shot and showed this with stars so we'd know when we look back on it.

Editing
Someone sadly filmed over part of our film but we luckily managed to save it while editing and it looks great, you woudn't be able to tell.

Before Editing

After Editing

As you can see i added a lot in the clip and deleted the bit thiat was filmed over, i dimmed in and out to give it a smooth transition, i also muted the diagetic sound and replaced it with music at the beginning of the video until the talking starts.
