During half-term Callum, (the editor) put together a rough cut. As youtube was not working, he uploaded the video privately and sent Jake and I a link. Jake received the e-mail before me, so Callum and him discussed a few things. (above)
My oven was often in the shot, and there is a green timer in the middle showing the time. It was a concern as it was going to effect the continuity. Every time we was about to film, I would have to press a button to change the time to 00:00. When it came to post production, Callum chose clips where you cannot really see the timer anyway, so this is good.
When I received the e-mail, I also replied with my opinions and worries. I felt really negative, but I was only being critical. I watched it with my father in the room and he agreed it has a very slow start. This was my biggest worry, people losing interest right at the beginning. Towards the end of the film Layla is running around all frantically and it is really intriguing. The editing is superb at this end, and we decided to end on a calmer shot (her sitting down and looking straight ahead). I feel from the moment the film starts it should be quick, edgy and it should draw an audience in.
School tomorrow, Film Tuesday&Thursday.
We have a lot to do.
