Production: Editing

After we finished filming we started to edit our footage together using Adobe Premier Pro. We added transitions where necessary, rough credits as well as putting our shots in chronological order. We also added our ident and our title screen. 

We made a rough cut.

Production: Filming day 2

On Wednesday the 25th February we filmed the outside section of our film (3rd section), Due to complications we had to film in Rose Hall Lane, Middleton Cheney instead of Arbury Banks in Chipping Warden, We managed to film all the shots we wanted.

Production: Ident

To make our opening look as authentic and real as possible we decided to make an ident, For this we used Adobe After Effects CC 2014. 

The ident will appear at the start of our film, which is typical of all films. And will reveal the name of our production company Rumford Roberts Productions.  There will be a scratching sound effect which we obtained from www.freesfx.co.uk this will be placed on top of the ident and will be diegetic. 

Production: Make Up

On the day of filming we gave ourselves half a hour of preparation of clothing and make-up. Chloe focused on a more 'natural' look as it resembled the character we wanted to present for her, we used the naked 2 eyeshadow palette as it resembles a modern audience and has a range of colours which we can use to create our preferred look.

Production: Film title

For our main title we decided to pick three and use a focus group to find a typography that our target audiences can relate to. More importantly it has to relate to our genre.

1.

2.

3. 

We asked 6 people for choice and to add some comments

Font: 

1. 2

2. 1

3. 3

Text 3 had the majority of votes, George Beeson said "It fitted the target genre better than the others"

We asked William Garner 17, George Beeson 18, Leah Tait 18, Hannah Rumford 21, Tom Denny 19 and Theo Ellis 20

Based on our results we decided to go with typography 3, as it was most favourable with our target audience. The font is You murderer

Production: Sound effects

In our film their will be a continoues clicking of a clock throughout to build suspense, it will be non-diegetic We went online and a free sound effect that will fit our film well. 

We chose the Clocks-Large Clock-Int-ECU Hard Metal Clicks as it was the best for our film. It didn't have much background noise and had a consistent ticking throughout.

Production: Deciding title typography

For our titles we have chosen three different typography's from LiveType:

American Typewriter-Regular

MS PGothic- Regular

Nanum Brush Script- Regular

Focus Group

We audience tested these font's with our target audience, being predominately young adults from 16-25 and asked them to choose the font that best fitted the genre. We asked 6 people for their choice and to add some comments: 

American Typewriter: 4

MS PGothic- Regular: 1

Nanum Brush Script: 1

American Typewriter appears to be favourite George added "The typewriter style makes it feel older and adds more of a mysterious level" and Joe added 'That the others were too basic and curved, the formal style goes well with the genre"

We asked Joe Castle 18, George Youel 18, Sophie Tyacke-Norton 17, Tom Denny 19,  Leah Tait 18, Dan Head 20.

Based on this research we established that our font should be American Typewriter, as it was most favoured with our target audience and gives a good sense of ambiguity for our film.
