The Hypnotist Media Film

 
When Things Turn Ugly Film

Question 7

looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learned in the progression from it to the product?

for my preliminary work i made the film "the dealer", i will be comparing this to my final thriller "the hypnotist", firstly the quality of shot is better in the thriller compared to the preliminary, there is more of a variety of shots and the quality is better with no shakiness of the camera, and the shots are more clearer.
-Preliminary Film

-Final Thriller






in our final thriller we used different lighting mostly natural outside lighting but for some inside shots we used the lights. this means we get better and clearer lighting which gets us better and clearer quality shots.

also in the final film we used a rode microphone which is a professional microphone and this gave us good quality sound which is better than the microphone we used for the preliminary and in some scenes of  the preliminary the quality was bad and couldn't hear much in some of it.

furthermore our final thriller was better because we had more props and better clothing, we were able to record outside of school so we didn't get to wear any proper clothing that would fit the film.

finally in the final film we were able to use all our knowledge of the shots and where to use them efficiently whereas in our preliminary film we were using them anywhere, our final thriller looks much better because we used our knowledge of all these things and used them in the right places and edit it to make it look good.

Question 6

i have learned that the technologies from the process of constructing this product, is that you will use a lot of different hardware, software and internet sites to make the film.
the hardware we that we used is a camera to record the footage,

tripod to keep the camera at a good steady angle,

microphone to record the sound in higher quality than what the camera can,

lights to get better lighting and give dramatic effect to the scene.

final cut express, i learned how to edit my film in this, for example cut footage and make separate sub-clips and change volumes and insert transitions and music.

photoshop, in this i made the ident for our film, and i learned how to make images in Photoshop and insert text over it.

blogger, i learned to use blogger to help me document the process of researching, planning, constructing and editing my opening of a thriller. i had not blogged before so this was all new to me. i learned quickly how to use the label system to organise my work and set it out into clear categories. i also learned how to embed HTML codes for things like videos and power points. and i also learned how to embed images.

dafont, i learned that using by dafont i can make my work look more processional and look better, and dafont gives me a wider range of fonts than the basic fonts that are already installed.

freesfx, this is a website where i found free un copyrighted music and i found out how to download and insert music into my films.

youtube, i learned how to upload and get feedback fro my films.

Question 5

my thriller holds the audiences attention because it is interesting on how the character "the hypnotist" and how we don't know him and what he is trying to do and why he is trying to do it.

our audience would want to watch our film to see what would happen to Rupert and the Dr, and whether Rupert would get in trouble for his crime or whether the Dr would for abusing his power and getting rupert into trouble and see why the Dr wanted to kill the Female character.

The audience feedback we got was alright, mostly good but some said that improvements on sound and editing could have been made, overall the feedback we got was good.
