Rough cut reviews

After posting our thriller rough cut to YouTube, we received a few comments that gave us some critical feedback. They told us important they we may have missed in the first place and therefore they will help to improve our thriller. From this task we have learnt it is important to have a second opinion because it will help to better our thriller.

Some of the things that were mentioned in the comments, were that some of the shots were too dark. It was also mentioned that the torch light was quite distracting and we should do something to try and fix that. Someone also said that a few of the shots were too long and therefore made it a bit boring.

We have now made another shot list of what needs to be re-filmed and so we are much more prepared to re-shoot parts of our thriller. We have decided to re-film roughly 10 more clips that will hopefully piece together our thriller.

A few of the targets we have set ourselves:

  • To re-film any dark shots, so that there is no dramatic lighting change.
  • Edit clips that are too long, this will be done by either cutting them down or it can be used during parallel editing.
  • Cut between shots in the bunker with the distracting torch light. Hopefully by editing these few clips, the light will be not as noticeable.
