CAP Hollywood Week Three

Last week in CAP Hollywood my group almost completed our film. We have all the footage we need and we have it in order on the timeline. We have music and credits. Are most important areas to focus on are:

1. Transitions. A lot of our scenes have awkward jump shots in them. We need to smooth these out a lot.
2. Establishing shots/ b-roll. Adding more of this may help with transitions, and also help to establish setting and vary the shots more. It adds interest to the film and also helps with the pacing.
3. Pacing. Everything that happens occurs very quickly in our film. We need to spread it out more to allow for rising tension. It's also a little short right now, so this will help to extend it.

Adding more establishing shots will probably help in the other two areas. We were good besdies this, because we had our music and audio mainly done, and had everything like we wanted it in the timeline. We also did our movie poster. The only problem is that I'm not sure whether we still have the same film we did last time, because apprently something happened to it. I haven't seen it yet, so next time we'll have to check and hope that this is the only work left.

We might have to do a bit more of the audio as well, smoothing everything out. I might have to redo some audio adjustments I spent last class working on because I think the audio got kind of messed up. I think we might also have to re-insert music or choose between two tracks. We also have to insert some voice over for one part.

We're hoping to get in some time outside of class this week so that we can accomplish all of this by Friday.
