Reflecting back on the preliminary task, I've learned a lot more about using different technologies, such as I movie in order to construct a finished product. But before filming, I learnt a lot about the researching process and finding original ideas or ispiration from other films which we could manipulate and re create.
I aslo learned that story boarding and planning takes a lot of detail and has a massive thought process, because of how much understanding you need to have and ideas of what you want to create and what kind of product you want to achieve.
Working in a group was very different for me as I like working as an individual. It start with lots of ideas that flow and then you start to get on different pages and you compromise and small debates start to happen. It also can cause a lot of stress if a member in your group is ill or haven't completed their talks for the deadline as you agree to take on that extra work, and you worry about whether you have taken on too much or not done enough.
When it came to planning and shooting out opening, I found this to be the hardest part of the production in my opinion as everyone needed to be available all at the same time for a matter of hours for just seconds of quality footage. After you had footage and it came to looking at how much you had, pick up shots were need per if something could have been re done or look more effective.
editing however was the longest and the biggest process we had to go through. As we had to decide where to cut and where to match our angles and shots so it looked like one continuous movement throughout. Colours and print styles for what would attract our audience but stick to original horror conventions.
What I would change next time
Next time I would create my own edit. As I could base it purely just on my ideas instead of having to compromise yours to fit into how other members want it to look. I aslo think I would have managed my time differently by going into more depth instead of waiting for my group so we could move on.
