Reshooting the fall

After deliberation, I decided that I wasn’t happy with the second bridge scene and decided to reshoot. After the feedback from the first cut, the sounds wasn’t very high quality anyway, and I wanted to change the way the fall was presented, so tomorrow I will be gathering the actors again and reshooting.

First Cut feedback

After viewing my first cut, the class and teachers have given my feedback, as stated below:
1. I need to either re-shoot or over dub my bridge scenes as there is too much background noise, making it hard to hear what the actors are saying.
2. I need to make the telephone conversation more realistic by recording the sound of the voices through the telephone.
3. The pace is very good, as lots of short films seem rushed however this is not and has good flow.
4. I need to make some parts of the sound louder as it seems to quiet.
5. I need to correct a match on action error in the last bridge scene.
6. The falling off the bridge would be more effective should it be in slow motion.

Feedback notes

To put together the sequence of shots to make the narrative flow
Consider using white fades for the flash backs
Use the ‘echo’ effect only part through the argument to build up tension
Consider using the black and white effect for the flash backs
The sound will need to be normalised so that it is consistent all the way through
You need to use or shoot some more shots in the argument to build up the variation of shots
