PODCAST 9: Rough Cut Updates

...

...
  • We have a full performance cut
    • Full rough cut is based on this with a few changes
    • Still need to make more changes 
  • Competition
    • audience responses still need to be filmed
Rough Cut things to improve:
  1.  Some slo-mo!
  2.  Would've been better to have girl's hair tied back to show emoting
  3.  Lot of shakey shots; lot of out of focus - target especially with layering
  4.  Is there scope for BRIEF diegetic intro and/or intro?
  5.  Lot of takes need brief trimming to reduce elements that diminish verisimilitude
  6.  Every 'drop' needs careful consideration
  7.  Fair bit of vocals not quite synced
  8.  SS' perf + costume is a strength
  9.  Play around with possible colouring/FX to make narrative distinctive too.
  10.  Good eg of where you might layer: 017 has lot of open space, so maybe some of that graveyard scene
  11.  023 good eg of framing that works well for non-greenscreened layer
  12.  032 good eg of take needing slight trimming (from end)
  13.  the 3 'coverage' takes around 042, last works well, prev 2 are random, and don't (think about  hand scraping over wall mural / grafittied wall etc
  14.  stairs/bedroom - see my comments on prev cut; same issues
  15.  this includes ONE jump cut; usually makes more sense to have 2/3 in one sequence
  16.  058 an eg of not really paying full attention to the drop
  17.  always be clear why you're using a take; 114 is just too random
  18.  118 a big audio spike (duplicating audio layer?)
  19.  122 watch out for takes that are too short; this also needs shot variety, eg CU of the eating
  20.  125 look for opportunities to illustrate (Goodwin) lyrics, eg intoxicate me
  • Re-shoots:
    • Performance
      • Burnt down building 
      • Solo performance 
      • Need more variety, especially at the end were car park is too much 
      • Some lyrics bit out of sink need to be reshot 
    • Narrative
      • Add in lead singer at the end
      • changes of costume
      • change argument scene with more close ups and slow mo slaps
      • change whole funeral scene adding in lead singer
