Evaluation Questionnaire

Overall, our average mark out of 60 was 49 which is a level 4 B. The audience enjoyed the use of sound particularly the nursery rhyme at the end and also the scene where the threat goes to attack the victim before the ending. However, some found certain scenes confusing as they couldn't tell either who was dead or what was happening in general however this was only one comment.

Horror film: 'Seance'


The finishing touches!

We have finally added the opening to the film and have used a letterbox edit it to make it look especially creepy and mysterious and it also follows a horror film tradition.
We have also added the finishing touches to the music and just slipped in a background track to give the film more body as the characters speak.
Overall, we are very happy with the way our film has developed and are very confident in it due to our hardwork.

Production logo

Here is our final production logo which we made on photoshop using a picture of a nebula and downloading text from DaFont.com. We used an effect on the font called drop shadow to give it a more 3D effect and to allow a contrast between the text and background image. As you can see only 'Colossal' is in grey as it just allows the text to stand out from each other and just gives the logo a wider variety of colour and tone. We decided to use a nebula because space is massive and that's what we want our films to be: huge and epic with the biggest stars and have the greatest quality narratives which is why the word 'Colossal' seems as if it's actually coming out of the middle of the nebula, reflecting our productions.

Movie soundtrack

I have began to make the soundtrack for our film by using Garage Band. I have created an eerie sound using Synth Pads and a Guitar.

First stage of editing the film

Here is a screen grab of the first stages of editing on iMovie. First of all I looked at all the footage and split the scenes into order. Then I cut the scenes into different shoots of the scenes so we can decide which ones we want and what shots we have to do again and what we have left to shoot.
