EVALUATION - Question 1




Perhaps serial killers and psychopaths use polaroids as it is a quick way of capturing their masterpiece.The polaroid is very vintage and is not really used as much as before.By having the two girls using it now ( in the modern time) implies to age and style.It also suggests the old way of life.







           
         





EVALUATION - Question 6






R E S E A R C H

For the researching part it involves myself going online to find inspiration also blogger is used to record my findings which shows evidence of my work.This didn't involve only internet online research it also involved primary research like books that is available at school, opinions and thoughts of people of the theme and also from story telling.


P L A N N I N G

In order for the planning to be done, several research is needed to kindle that light of inspiration. The search is on the internet; google , websites and even some story-telling blogs.After that, the facts is being presented on a piece of paper at first and later on developed into a clean finished copy which is ready to be presented on the blog.Some of the work is also being demonstrated in a more interesting way in a form of audio and video.( sometimes even photos - panoramic view of the settings) 


F I L M I N G

In this project filming is really important and it is the main thing we use for taking record of what we've done and presenting out work.But in order for the filming to work smoothly props were needed to enhance the scenes as well as the use of makeup and outfits to create representations and a realistic image.The combination of all these gave us a good outcome which we think goes really well together



P O S T  production

The main highlight go this project is AE ( After effects) which is also used along with Premier Pro, Final cut pro and iMovie. We found out that AE ( After effects) is really effective when it is used with Premier Pro, Final cut and iMovie as it does not only create effects and interesting flares and details to the work it also makes the footage connected if it is used properly.

Evaluation - Question 5


My production skills developed throughout this project so much that I couldn't even believe myself.Starting from cluelessly knowing what I have to do in class to an acceptable film maker. 
It is a big jump for me since this is a new subject for me and I was always struggling with ICT.I found my self more confident in interpreting codes and conventions that matches with my theme for the opening, exploring the deeper meaning of the subject/objects in my opening.Also, this project improved my planning and organizing skills a lot. As before I was a person who doesn't plan for anything  where I just go with the flow , by planning allows me to be precise and accurate in my work.Which I believe is a precious quality because it forces myself to not go out of place and always keeps my aim visible and lucid in my mind at all times  - very effective in the film industries especially in marketing for the correct audience.Furthermore, it keeps me on track of time and to predict and estimate the amount of time I need for the things I have to do and roughly predict when my work would finish.But most of all it reduces STRESS of unknowingly know what to do.I believe I am more confident in using Visual FX and that my skills have improved a whole lot as now.As my work is aimed at being abstract and quite absurd I had to make my film opening quite artsy.This gave me the opportunity to use AE ( After effect) on my daily basis to achieve the hallucination and haunting vision.Which at first I was a rookie at it but now I can fully say that I have improved a lot and I could   do a lot more effects with it which I am really proud of even though  I am not 100 % good with it.Also, in this project I further my ability by creating my work outside the box by experimenting with camera-work with limitless possibilities.For example I filmed my work in the swimming pool. Which took a lot of time and patience as It was not as simple as it seems.It was really complex and quite difficult to master the angles and the jumps ( into the swimming pool) at the same time.But I did it anyways.
The editing was hard at first but as time goes on with more practices and knowledge the editing part is not a struggle for me anymore and it became something I really look forward to in every class as it is fun and it is when me and my working-buddy (Arisa) talk about anything.
I believe this project is one of the projects that I fully express my creative mind, embracing my creative confidence as I wanted to achieve something that is outside of the box and quite bizarre which was really fun and enjoyable because I had to learn all the things on AE (after effects).Then again creative confidence is a powerful quality for marketing as it differentiate your work from others, making your work unique and YOURS.

Diary

The deleted scene

At first we were going to put the section about suicide on to create climax to our opening credit. 
* But at the end we decided to take it out due to ethical reasons and the violent content.

At first we wanted the ending scene to be a montage of a girl suicide. - hanging onto the ceiling however firstly with a shot of the rope tied onto the top of the room and ending with a floating feet - off the ground to indicate the death of the girl.
