this is my final film. i will be handing this in!!!
the last alterations were:
- title - which i changed from the original text because a classmate said the font was quite hard to read, so i have compremised, it is still fairly fancy and gothic/fairytale but now it is a clearer font to read.
- i added in credits - me, obviously coz i made the film, then dan Tyler for the music, and i thanked nick phillips as he was my tutor for the most part whilst making my film. the end shows the solent uni's logo as i have been here three years and this is where i made the film and where (fingers crossed) i will get my degree. so if i hadnt come to solent this film wouldnt be.
- the flame in the chapel i animated in flash and then blurred it in afx
- the glinting effect on the pendant as it spins round that i did in afx by masking a white solid and feathering it, then animating it using the opacity tool
- i added in some moving branches to the scene where mother and daughter are walking up to the chapel as there is a strong wind blowing and so it adds to the apprehensive atmosphere and makes it a bit spooky, (i love the sound the loon makes also). the branches also lead the eye to the chapel a bit more too which is good coz it is in the distance and may have been overlooked by some viewers.
- after struggling many times to get the movement and the aesthetic of the slope right, it still wasn't working. so as suggested by a tutor i changed it to them falling through foliage. which looks much better and is more in keeping with the rest of the backgrounds, and still hopefully looks a bit disorientating so the audience are like "uh-oh" coz i added in blurs effects on the backgrounds and the camera pans to follow their decent. and as i have changed this background it ment i then had to change the other backgrounds where we see the slope by adding in foliage.
- the final change was to simply flip over a scene so the attention was more on the bottom right hand corner as previous scenes were focused there
- other changes i had to do was to correct the opacity of the some of the characters in many of the scenes because my Flash had a glitch and kept turning the opacity down to 96%, and i didnt realise until i rendered out because you could see the background through the characters and so i had to go back and recolour them at 100% and rerender. also other things like single frames being zoomed out instead of in and her missing half a head in one or him half a body and her disappearing before the end of the scene or the light going out a frame too early, etc. etc. so rerendering whole scenes to correct little errors. hopefully i have managed to spot them all now! and my film should be a-ok :)
