Final Edits

Hey Cambridge! In my latest blog post, I shared how I involved my mom and sister in reviewing the opening sequence of my film. While my mom didn't have any specific feedback, my sister did. She pointed out that the lighting in the sequence didn't evoke the horror effect. We decided to take this feedback and use it.

Taking my sister's feedback, we set out to improve the opening sequence by focusing on editing the lighting. Since we had already conducted research, we went back to review and look at horror film lighting atmosphere. We realized that the lighting in typical horror films tends to be significantly darker than what we initially had.

With this realization, we went back editing and began adjusting the lighting settings accordingly. Initially, we experimented by increasing the saturation and decreasing the brightness, but found that this approach didn't seem right. So we reduced the saturation and darken the lighting instead. This adjustment proved to be better because it enhanced the overall mood of the sequence. It intensified the sense of danger and terror we aimed to convey. This really showed how our genre is Horror. It was perfect.

Receiving and acting upon  feedback truly improved our film. With these adjustments made our project feels complete. We were now official done with this project. I'm eager for you to see the final result, as it has turned out amazing. Thank you for reading.

Movie Research: 47 Meters Down: Uncaged

 Genre Research: 47 Meters Down: Uncaged What elements of the genre that you chose to base your final task on does this movie have? The elements of the genre that I chose to base my final task on that this movie have is the lighting of the movie. In the beginning of the movie the movie has a really bright lighting but as the movie progressed the lighting becomes really dull and dark. I choose these elements because it's important for horror movies to have dark lighting to create the horror and dark effect. But also for the balance of having both light and dark lighting for our final task. What elements of the genre did this movie have that you like? Element of the movie that I liked are the narrative. I liked how the movie starts off it being a normal day for a group of teenagers but then eventually becomes one of the worst days of there lives. It shows a continuous timeline from start to end and doesn't cut to the end or the middle. It makes it easier to follow the storyline.
