EDITS

Post-production edits 

Using IMovie, we made made final edits to each scene to create a more professional look. We spent time carefully choosing which scenes to use. 

In post production, we considered the order of our scenes and the diegetic and non-diegetic sound to be used

We made edits to the order of our scenes so that they were chronological in order for viewers to understand that the film opening is the beginning of a narrative, instead of a trailer for example.

 We collaborated speech with non-diegetic music. We edited and changed the sad, melancholy diegetic music to more of sinister music to present the supernatural tones of the film opening. 

We edited the scenes themselves to turn down the saturation from normal to low, in order for the scenes to appear dimmed and create the eerie tone which we were shriving for.

FILM POSTER

Publishing of the 'Cynic' film poster. 

The still image taken from my film opening is a significant moment. It was just before Mary saw the ghost of her possessed sister, Emilia. 

When choosing an image for a film poster it is important that it is from a noteworthy extract off the film. For my choice of genre, horror, it is essential that the poster has a 'fright factor'. This will entice viewers to want to watch the film. 

COSTUME DEVELOPMENT

 

FILMING: HOT SEATING

In this video we asked the actress who plays our protagonist questions about the portray her character: Mary. 

So how would you describe your character Mary? 

How does your character’s role develop throughout the film opening 

Do you think Mary was frightened when she used the ouija board? 

How were you able to connect to the experiences that Mary had to your own if you had not experienced it before 

Can you give us any clues of what happens after the final cliff hanger?
