Our Evalutation

Technologies used

We used a lot of technologies to create our media pieces which we wouldn't of been able to do without these.

 We used Celtx to create our script and schedule and also our character and props list. This helped keep us as a group organised and on schedule. We wouldn't have got a lot done without it.

We used Final Cut Pro to edit our footage together, this allowed us to make our film because we can't afford to use the high-tec technology, this allowed us to create a high quality film with this software.

We used Garage Band to create music for our film on which we could put on our film without needed copy write permission, this also allowed us to experiment with different sounds to make the music for our film

Google allowed us to search clips, information, and pictures and much more for our research and planning. Without Google we wouldn't of found out half the things we did using Google.

In IMovie we created our extras which was quite fun watching all our outtakes from our film, its also an easier way to edit footage.

In Photoshop I edited our poster and made all the brick wall, pavement and lower wall black and white and kept the bushes and characters in colour. This was a decision we made because it made our title stand out a lot more and also our quote and characters names.

Film Extras

^This was our final extras



^This was our first draft before we cut bits out

Final Poster

We had to change our poster again because the names of the characters blended in with the black and white wall so we needed to make some changes

Here is the first option we came up with:

We then decided we didn't like the yellow because it took away the harshness it and it made it look a bit like a cartoon. We then chose the writing to be in red because it kept the harsh tone of the poster and the message we wanted to get across to the audience. 

This is our final poster

Audience Questionnaire

We wrote a questionnaire to get some audience feedback on our film to see what they liked and disliked, what characters they sympathized with and which ones they hated. This also gave us a chance to change some things that the audience didn't like or what they felt didn't work
