One minute film analysis (Tomasz Wojton)

Pre-production process

• First all four of us started giving ideas on what the film could be about (thinking about the concept). Through this we thought of the general scenario, the genre.
• We then decided to assign the roles and allowed the camera man to draw a story board as he has the best vision of what it is supposed to look like. However, we had to change many of the planned shots to improve the film.
• Once the roles were assigned 1 person wrote the script and shown it to everyone. If any parts of the script needed changing we all discussed how we could make it better
• We then sent out one person to find a good place where we can film the scene with good lighting and atmosphere
• Once everything was ready we were able to move onto the production process.

Production process

• Before the start of every scene we would look at the story board, the script and then we would get into positions.
• The camera man would set up his camera and then he would say go signalling the start of the recording. 
• The same scene was recorded multiple times in order to have different angles in the editing.
• We looked back at the scenes and if we weren't happy with any of them we decided to record them again. However due to the limited time we couldn't make every scene perfect.

Post-production process

• Once everything was filmed we could finally get onto the editing. We had 20 minutes between 4 people to edit so each person did a different part. 
• While one person was editing with the help of another the other 2 were looking for sound effects and music to add allowing our post-production process to take less time.
• Once everyone has edited and agreed on the music and sound effect everything was added in and the film was ready to be published

• In my opinion the weather complemented our concept as it was cloudy and rainy giving the dark and moody atmosphere of a killing situation
• Also due to the multiple angles we filmed we had a chance to use different shots if the others looked unfinished and unrealistic

EBI

• We had very little props and we didn't have a gun so we had to hide the shooters hand in the filming to not give it away
• A lot of the shots turned out blurry and due to the limited time we didn't have the opportunity to film them again.

Final reflection

I think we as a group did a good job to create a short film in the very limited time we had. The people that I have shown it to said it was very good as the camera angles were always different always keeping the viewers attention. However, we had a limited time on the editing meaning it was very rough. The audience has told me that there were too many cutaways making the scenes not flow. I agree with this but I feel like with more time we would've been able to improve this.
