Editing

Today we have started filming the footage that we have and we will try and edit as many footages as we can. we edited scene by scene and we also noted down another shot we might need to take from a specific scene because it might have seen odd or as if something was missing. on the next recording day wed try and go back and record anything we have to.

in relation to editing we started off simple so we just put the clips together and only used the footage that we needed from clips and chipped to think of what goes before what and how. because we had shots of the same scene but in different angles and shot types to try different things and see which shot looks the best to use.

Learning FCP

In this lesson we finished off our final cut pro work and also gained alot of skills from it. we would need final cut pro to help us edit our own final film product and we were asked to put a clip together to help put the film together. it is important for us to learn this because we would need to put to put the film footages together once weve recorded and the editing stage has appeared.

we mainly learned how to use the cut tool properly, and how to mark in and out of the clips to help us keep the parts that we need.

BBT Case study

with regards to our ideas about a comedy vibe that will run through our short film this short clip from the Big Bang Theory helped us give ideas for the romantic day dream that we will have. this will take place when he see's her on the train and starts to fall in love with her. and we thought this is the best case studys to help us get ideas from beacuse 'Raj' is from an indian background and he day dreams about a girl in lunch and he starts to think about her and in his thoughts he dances with her with an indian theme and this is exactly what we want to have in our day dream. the main concept of this extract of which we will interpret the use of culture through music to express a persons emotion or feelings in this case.

Change in Storyline

We have changed a few things in our storyline and so we decided to change our storyboard and the script. we decided to take out the taxi scene from our storyline and also take out the pudding mill lane scene. so now we have decided upon the storyline that he will get on the train to stratford and see the girl on the train and he see's a day dream of her and then gets off to go to the olympics.


The reason why we have done this is because firstly the original idea that mony was going to get into a taxi and go to lverpool street where he gets lost however we had no car available for use so we had to take that out. we also thought we had too many scenes in place so we took the pudding mill lane scene out and kept it simple, even though it is a short film. However everything else is still in place.

6th november

today in our lesson we finalised the dates and also discussed the filming process. we said that we will film at Wednesday evening and film the last scene during that time. on Saturday morning we do the rest of the scenes. we discussed about our characters and their costumes. we decided that we will get an old tradition garments for the taxi driver, the security guards will be dressed up formally and the main guy would be wearing fresh and old styled garments to show that his forein and not really up to date. we had trouble organising a car for the taxi scene however came up with a solution at the end. we decided we would get one of our Friends to get their sisters car. lastly we also sorted out the role of the girl, which we have contacted and spoke to and she is willing to act. 

the girl on the bus will be dressed casually however one he has the day dream about her she will be dressed like this, a saree to make herself look traditional. we thought that she should wear this because it will be a steriotype about indian dramas and thier love scenes.
the taxi driver should wear this because he will look more threatening and scary. the main guy will have the suspicioun that he is a terrorist so this dressing will bring more impact.
