In this evaluation I will talk about my media coursework and how I made my film opening.
I'm very happy with my opening, it is how I pictured it but I do wish I could have added a little more before to the film. What I like about my film is the music, it was something very important to me I think that sound is very important to a film and it helps to show the genre of the film. My music fits in perfectly with he titles which is something I was aiming for when making the opening, I think it makes it look more interesting and exciting to the audience. I also like some of the camera angles I added and the detail to the forest.
What I didn't like about my film was the ending and how the voiceover sounded, I wanted the voice over to be more old fashioned like on a old news report. The voice over is meant to show whats happening in the film, it shows the ending of the film at the beginning to help give the audience get a deeper understanding.
My target audience are boys and girls of the ages of 15-20 years old.
I want my audience to be able to relate to the characters in my film. The different types of characters help my audience to connect to the characters. I feel that aspects of my film attracts to my audience, for example the character at the end and the mention of the other character in the film help gets an in site on what the characters are like. In some of the shots when in the woods I placed specific objects in the shot to help show what the characters are like. In one shot I set everything up like a campsite so it looked like people have been living there, this helps explain the narrative, and I put objects like lipstick and glasses to help explain that the characters are like, the lipstick helps explain of the characters is a girl who cares about her appearance and the glasses help to show one of the characters was a boy who is shown to be a little bit of a “nerd”. Putting characters like this in my film help different types of people to relate and want to watch.
I made my film look realistic by adding credits on the opening and putting the titles for production companies. I feel that my titles and credits could have been better but I am still proud of how they came out. I also think the way the music and the titles fit together helps make it look realistic because its done so closely.
In conclusion I am happy with my coursework and how my film turned out but if I could I would add little improvements.
