From filming I have managed to work and organise a film crew and direct a cast. I also organised costumes for our main actor, which was just a jacket and shirt, also I had to get props such as a bag which we updated instead of a paint of tin. I had to study the footage of the original title sequence and work out all the different camera angles that we needed to re-enact. I had to make sure I knew exactly what I was doing. By making a storyboard it made it a lot easier to remember the different angles and how long the shot needed to be for, so that was a very important factor. I also learned that it took a lot longer than I originally thought it would, We had to shoot over a few days to get all the footage that we needed, therefore us planning it out really helped to make it quicker. For my piece to be successful I had to get a good actor to carry a convincing role and act professional which I did. I had to be very reliant & patience with the people I was working with because for us to get good footage we had to work together. To get the same look as the original title seqence we had to go to a town that was busy for it to look real therefore our actor was acting infront of lots of different people which you need to have confidence to do. I also had to take into consideration the weather conditions, we filmed on a clear day so that it would match the real version.
What I have learnt from the editing process?
Firstly I had to set up a project. I learnt how to import and export all of my footage. I also learnt how to cut the footage in however way I wanted. Where we filmed was noisy because it was a local highstreet therefore I had to learn how to unlink the sounds from my footage so that you couldn't hear it. I had to learn how to scale and resize clips and I done this by going 'Window - Effects control - motion control' and this allowed me to do this. I had to adjust the framing and this made me realise the importance of good cameras work because it had to be very accurate. In my title sequence there was talking which meant I had to master the importance of lip syncing so that it would match up. Whilst editing I had to make sure that the whole sequence was at a steady pace, this meant either slowing some bits down or fastening it up,I done this by 'right click speed/duration'.Some of the footage was filmed on the wrong side therefore I flipped it so that it matched. I had to add titles and credits into the film and this was quite hard because I had to find a font that matched the original font.
