Prelim Feedback

The feedback from our preliminary task was really positive. After showing itto the class, we recieved a few comments such as:

"great matching of props and costumes" - Izabell

"editing to the beat was done so well" - Emma 

"the accuracy of this compared to the original is so good!" -Lucy

Final Prelim

Here is the final video of our preliminary task.

Prelim Filming

When filming our prelim we decided to take pictures rather than film each shot, as many of the shots were still, or had a subtle zoom. As the zooming feature on the iPhone is not as subtle as we would've liked, we decided to take a photo of the shot and use the 'Ken Burns' effect on iMovie to create an inwards zoom.




The actors we chose when filming were used as they looked similar to the actors used in the original, especially our friend Emma. 

We also managed to find very similar outfits to those used, when we thought we would finding a green, patterned shirt to borrow for Emma to wear would be difficult.

Prelim- storyboard and planning

Below is the storyboard which we will work from when filming our preliminary task. We've used screenshots from the original video as our pictures and noted down their duration, shot type, and any camera movements involved in order to make ours as close to the original as possible. It also clearly lays out any props or costumes we would need. Unlike our AS prelim, this was filmed in a variety of locations and so we didn't use the storyboard as a way of organising a shooting schedule, however it did prove useful for recreating the original shots.
