Film Evaluation
We believe that our finished product, 'Psy-Tanic', has achieved the standards of our vision. The final product is all that we envisioned it would be. It has a never before seen throughout the film with the ABA layout featuring a short comedy sketch, an advert, and another sketch. this structure was used to bring a sense of variety whilst keeping order within our production. We made these decisions based on our believe that it would aid the audience in understanding and in differentiating between the multiple scenes. Unfortunately we decided to leave out two scenes originally in the story board because, when it came to production and editing the scenes did not correlate to the topic of the third scene and when put into post-production (editing) the scenes were too dark and the characters were indistinguishable from the scenery. Although the film is completely original it does also build off of a specific brand's adverts but does not follow in their success, instead we decided to use them as a marker/key point which most people could relate to.
The production very much follows the story board and script from the pre-production phase of our product, yet there are a few minor changes to the scenes that we made. First off, the structure of the 'Scott Barry - Bang Cillit' advert was slightly modified. we made this choice so that the scene would be easier to follow and the overall affect of the comedy is amplified. later in the film we decided to leave out a few scenes from the final act. this was done as the scenes are too dark to see anything but fire and the sound of the rustling trees muffles any other speech. for this reason we decided to leave it out aided by the fact it did not add anything to the story. we believed that reducing the amount of unwanted and unneeded scenes in our film would help the content to stay fresh and new to the viewers, keeping them interested and engaged in our production.
I personally contributed to my groups planning of 'Psy-Tanic' by creating the storyboard and the shot list, helping with call sheets and minutes.the planning process of our production was vital to the end product. Planning helped us to create a well polished and well structured piece that will be easy to grasp in the viewing stage. Planning helped our group to know what to do and in what order to achieve an efficient and organised production.
The strengths of our pre-production are that we worked well as a team and we were a very organised and cooperative with each other. this helped us to improve our overall mentality towards the product and come out with a better result. The strengths of our production phase originated from our strengths in the pre-production. the strengths of production was that due to our planning in pre-production we all knew our roles and what we needed to do to accoplish our main goal. this increased our effectiveness and consistency of our work.
