Rough Cut 3 With Feedback

There are a lot of obvious mistakes with this rough cut and Sam and I aren't particularly impressed with it as we know we could have and should have done better. The first mistake is that we have included diegetic sound from the film opening in the idents; this is very wrong as we have now lost the original sound from the idents, however we could include sound from the video but less of it with it fading in and after the sound of the idents has finished so that we create an audio bridge. Another mistake is the shaky camera work on the long shot of the house and there shouldn't be a person in the window on the bottom floor because this makes the setting less Slasher like as the house if creepier if it's empty except for the main characters who will be attacked by the killer doll. Sam and I also experimented with colour efffects to make the video look like it's a flashback and that is explained at the end of the video with the women on the phone telling the story but now we've decided that this is to complex and unnecessary.

With our next rough cut, Sam and I have a new idea which has been explained in a previous blog post and we will also improve it by correcting these mistakes and posting the next rough cut so that we can gain feedback telling us whether we've improved or not and what we can still do to progress.
