Stop motion

I am going to attempt to film some stop motion writing of the lyrics, i am doing this as i have some gaps which i am not sure what part of my footage i can use. I feel that this would be better than putting footage into my film which does not look effective.

I have now edited together several minutes of my film, the most complicated part of the editing was editing the lip syncing jump cuts together, at one point i had to reuse another part of the filming but use the flop effect on it so that it filled the gap that there was.

Finishing my filming, and lessons i have learnt.

I am planning to film the rest of my media film later today, i am also going to re film the pieces of film that did not work before and i have found a new peice of software called handbrake, which should allow me to convert the footage in a much higher quality. I have also learnt that i must keep copies of the original footage, so that if the quality is affected by transferring the film too much i will be able to redo it.

Filming on Sunday the 4th

I filmed parts of my film which involve my actor walking through the streets, however when we attempted to film the more complicated parts of the film we found it very difficult and therefore i am having to work out another way how to film these parts. Or a way in which to simplify The lip syncing so that it is easier for my actor to do as at the moment fitting the different parts of lip syncing together is extremely difficult due to the fact i am attempting to fit together lip syncing with jump cuts, which means that if i get the lip syncing wrong at all, i have to re film the entire peice.

A bit of filming

I have done some filming of my actor walking through different locations, however i decided that i could not do anymore filming due to the fact that it was getting too dark and would have created a continuity error. I would also have not been able to see the actors mouth clearly which is important for the more complicated bits of lip syncing as these are the main parts of the film.

Filming delayed! FAR TOO MUCH SNOW!

I was planning on filming on sunday the 5th, however my actor was unable to attend as he was at a family meal, however this was not a problem as i would have been unable to attend due too the large amount of snow which there was which would have created a huge continuity error and therefore i would have not been able to film anyway.

Editing and more filming

I now have large amounts of the footage that involves lip syncing edited together which forms a large part of my film, however i still need to film filler bits which involve my actor walking through urban landscapes. I still also need to film my most complicated bit of footage which involves the actor jump cutting as i could not find a suitable location in which to perform this peice.
