Production Log - Week 9.

Week nine of production was the final week of production. My partner and I had planned to film with our actress on Monday, but unfortunately were unable to due to unforeseen circumstances. However, on Wednesday we were able to re-film all of the shots we had listed that needed to be re-done and improved as our actress was available. By Friday, my partner and I had completed our opening sequence as we put in our new and improved shots and used Final Cut Pro 7 to edit our graphics in.

What have been the key issues for your post-production this week?

There weren't really any key issues for my post-production in this final week. If any thing the only issue was the delay we had as we couldn't finalise our opening sequence until we re-filmed a couple of shots.

What decisions did you make about the issues and why?

We couldn't really do anything about when we could film as it all depended on our actresses availability, therefore we just made sure that when we did eventually film, we worked fast and with precision in post-production in order to meet our final opening sequences deadline.

How have you taken into account peer feedback?

After allowing our peers to view our draft opening sequence, they said we should add some more shots into the smash mouth opening and shorten the duration of the current ones to make it more fast paced and to have the audience on the edge of their seats right from the start as it would raise plenty of enigmas within the audience. My partner and I took this feedback into account as when we re-filmed some shots we also filmed some new shots to include in the smash mouth opening and when editing we reduced the length of all of the shots in the smash mouth opening.
