MONDAY 8TH FEBRUARY 2010

- today in class me and wadud uploaded all our new footage onto the macs in order for us to burn it onto a dvd and take it home.

- whilst watching the footage we were rather pleased with how it turned out , we both noticed a improvement in the quality of our filming which was much better then it was back in november when we first starting recording. I think this exprience has helped us alotto improve all our work and research.

-In the lesson we also discussed the format of our trailer . We did this by refering back to the Brick , Adulthood and Kidulthood trailers as the sequence of events that they portray were rather relevant to our narrative too. For example the Adulthood trailer starts off very slowly and slowly and the builds up along with the action until it reaches an equillibrium which after the events the story begins to slow down again. We found this very interesting and thought we could apply this technique to our own trailer.

This shot is used in Adulthood to show the point when all the action reaches its peak . At this point the music is stopped and everything freezes , to show the increase in tension. we recreated this effect in our trailer when out protagonist picks up the brick to hit the bully . We slowed the shot down and and focused in on the brick and mobeens face.
