Review Page Draft 2 (so far)

This is where I currently am with the re-drafting of the review page. I have made a few obvious changes in terms of the format of the text and the colour scheme. I am now trying to reduce the white space surrounding the text in order to make the production look less barren.

Poster Draft 2

 

 

Here is the second draft of my film poster, I had gone to my focus group with my previous draft and they had given me a few improvements to make things such as brightening the image and adding the names of directors and actors in the conventional way of a film poster.

After doing this I presented them with this (draft 2) and once more they asked for a few more changes.

• Change the colour in the 'play' from bright green to a more muted colour in order for it to not be so "in your face".
• Make the eye look more 'glassy' and in depth into the lense of the camera.
• Put the cameras name back on the wing of the camera (Which i had previously removed for 'product placement' reasons.) Putting the name of the camera back on the wing will make it clearer what the camera actually is. 

After gaining this feedback I am currently working on a third draft of the poster.

Review Page Draft 1

After making this draft of 'The Review' I handed it to my focus group in order to gain constructive criticism to improve my work. Although the over all style and lay out was correct they gave me a number of things to improve.

• There is usually more than two collumns for text, sometimes 3 or 4.
• "Although the 'audience review' section is a good idea, it is not a convention of film magazines"
• Spelling Errors
• Too many varietys of font

Taking these comments on board I am currently re-drafting the review page.

Changes During Production and Editing

Recently we have been working on our production, of which entails editing and filming the first part of our film. Some of the challenges that we faced were putting our initial ideas into practice and doing what the screenplay suggested to a level that we were happy with. Throughout the filming process we decided that some minor changes would need to be taken into effect such as multiple different shots all edited in to one scene such as when the protagonist gets a call on Skype as opposed to one shot with little movement. We decided that it would be more effective to have around three different angles ranging from a mid-shot, to a high angle shot in the corner of the room to a low angle shot of the protagonist. As a way to document these potential changes after the fact we will create a third screenplay which will follow the final product to the letter, the changes we have made will be evident in the comparison between the second and the third screenplay, a document will accompany the third which clearly lists the changes made.
