Where is our film?

We thought it would be great to have our film viewed world wide, so we have decided to create a youtube account and upload it onto there. I think youtube it great, I use it for my own personal use, what I like about it is that any one any where can watch anything they want/find. You can comment and have your videos commented on, disable people commenting on your video if you don't wish to have people comment, you can rate and have your videos rated up to 5 stars.

Our Youtube account is called LaurenandKyleA2 and our short film should be up there soon.

Misplaced

Here is our short film, 'Misplaced'.

Final Poster

Kyle has finished the poster and it looks great!

This is quite similar to the 'Lost' poster with the smoke effect and the dark, dull colours.

Finished Editing

We finally finished editing. We spent a lot of time playing around with the picture quality, colours and sounds and I think we have the best result we can get. Once we have uploaded we will show it to an audience and ask for their opinions and criticism, so if needed we will edit to improve for their needs and upload a second version.

We loved the outtakes, so we decided to make a video dedicated to our actors by embarrassing them as a thank you for being in our film!

Improving our film

Today we got a bit side tracked from recording our radio advert and instead we improved our 5 minute film. We added instrumental music to project the mood, like for the advert we added silly/sea side music for humour. For the scene with the 'Hello Kitty', we've added some really intensive music to get the audience on their toes. I think it is much better with the music, I think the music has added more emotion into our film, because the acting was so poor.

Thinking

Me and Kyle have been discussing ideas for the radio advert, we have decided that we will be recording some lines on thursday for testing. Kyle has also started writing a review page, just incase we don't get the radio advert done in time. I've seen what he has written so far and the language he has used is very similar to a critics view.

Radio Advert

I've been thinking more about the radio advert and my teacher has suggested that I can use some sound recording equipment at school, but this causes some problems with the person I want to use (my Dad) because he is not able to come in to school to record, so we'll have to look for someone else to be the voice for our radio advert.

I really want the advert to be a bit like 'The Simpsons' movie adverts, because the narrator is really dramatic, then the tense music stops and Homer sings "Spider Pig" which breaks the mood and brings humour in. I'll need some intense music that I can find at http://freeplaymusic.com/.

I've been writing some things down that I would like said in the advert. After each line I would like a pause so I can play around with what order they will be and I have a choice to get rid of them too.

Here are some ideas:

"Experience the most wild and confusing adventure of a life time"

"From the people who didn’t understand 'Lost'"

"Test your mind with 'Misplaced'"

I'd also like some quotes from the film, to end the advert I'd like to have the quote where Jack says "What the F-!"
