Prelim Construction: Final Video

Here is our final preliminary video. As you can see, we have tried to recreate most of the scenes although location became a problem at times as our setting was obviously not the same as the house in the movie. My favourite scene in this short clip is the cupboard scene as we worked really hard on it as a team and we really pulled off the hand-held effect of the camera. Another problem we faced was the timings of the day as it got dark really quick when we needed some natural light but we just had to work with what we had. At one point, we noticed that we needed the same shot from a different angle so we had to use my phone to film the scene which created a significant change in quality. Next time, we could improve and work with this problem by trying out different lighting or changing it whilst editing. I really liked working with my group as a whole as we all participated and helped each other during the editing process. The shooting schedule was a success as we followed it whilst shooting and we completed the task quite efficiently. Our time management was good at times but at the end, we started slacking as we didn't use our timetable of frees to work on editing.

Here is my group working together on editing one of the worst scenes in the video. This process took up most of our time as it was very different to the actual clap scene. Also, there is a picture of me videoing the close-up scene in our final video, which was the last resort.
