Production progress

Recently I have finished the filming process of the production. Overall, the filming process was successful although slow at times. The first couple of sessions of filming were quite spread out and didn't work well in the terms of time management. However the third session and so on were done in quick and efficient succession meaning the shots would all work well within my production.


I am now moving onto putting all the focus on editing. I have been editing the main footage together roughly whilst I was filming however it was not done precisely and no effort was put towards the sound. The plan is to first edit the footage so that it is in the right order and at the appropriate length. After this, I will move onto adding the video effects such as a special transition when the pendant is used and implementing the colour corrections. Once this is done sound, whether it be diegetic or non-diegetic, will be the main focus. I will need to add foley sound to start off with, such as footsteps and ambience sounds and then move onto adding appropriate music to fit the feel of the production. However, it will probably not be that simple as I learnt from my AS piece. While editing my AS piece I came across problems that weren't necessarily there to begin with. One example would be sound being out of sync or lack of continuity which was noticed at the time. I feel that I have taken care of this not happening while filming and will keep this cautious attitude whilst editing to make sure there is no serious problems there either.

Another focus that needs to be considered is the evaluation questions which will evaluate my media piece and the ancillary texts that go with it, however I will go into more detail of these questions and how to answer them on a separate blog post.
