Love you to death

The Preliminary Task

Finishing our Project...
The film-making project has finally come to an end. Our deadline was yesterday and fortunately we managed to meet it with no problems =). We did however, make a few last minute changes to our sequence before getting it signed off.

We tightened a few frames slightly. We also re-recorded Laura’s dialogue which sounds much better now. The pause before ‘…for dinner’ did not have the same effect on the audience as we had intended so we got rid of that. Now she sounds much more sinister. We also cut the dialogues slightly so the conversation sounds more natural and flowing.

Yesterday we went through each of the titles making all the names bigger than their ‘job’ in the project for example ‘directed by…’ as this seemed quite conventional in other opening sequences.

Whilst getting feedback from Miss Blackborow, we all seemed to agree that the production name KADAM was a bit of a distraction with no significance, and that we should give more thought to the company name in order to establish ourselves more clearly. We came up with the two names:

OUTLOOK and PERSPECTIVE

We finally decided on ‘A PERSEPECTIVE FILM’ as everyone seemed to like it better. We chose this name because it signifies that as a company, we make films that give our audience the chance to see things from the perspective of different people within the British Society, whether they are from different ethnic backgrounds, or people from different aspects from society (for example homeless, disable psycho etc.)

‘Love you to Death’ is based on a psycho woman of Greek background, and therefore throughout the film there are references to Greek culture. This is what makes our company different from others.

After having placed our production company’s name on opening shot, we were ready to get signed off. Me, Alice and Mel were all very excited, and overall extremely pleased with our final sequence as we had done all we can to improve it and make it the best we can!
