Costume Problems

Today we were men't to re shoot part of the piece as we needed to make sum alterations to the scenes. however this was unable to happen due to costume problems; part of the team did not have the correct clothing so we could not shoot the piece.

Instead we went onto i movies and connected all the clips we didn't use and made a blooper out of it which still needs to be uploaded onto the blog were we can further talk about the scenes and why we shot them.
we also talked about taking photos of our costumes and telling you lot why we chose to wear the clothing.

Diagetic & non Diagetic sound







This clip has both diagetic and non diagetic sound.




Diagetic Sound:



Sound whose source is visible on the screen or whose source is implied to be present by the action of the film: 
  • voices of characters 
  • sounds made by objects in the story 
  • music represented as coming from instruments in the story space ( = source music)
Diegetic sound is any sound presented as originated from source within the film's world Digetic sound can be either on screen or off screen depending on whatever its source is within the frame or outside the frame. 
Another term for diegetic sound is actual sound.  




Non Diagetic Sound:



Sound whose source is neither visible on the screen nor has been implied to be present in the action:
  • narrator's commentary
  • sound effects which is added for the dramatic effect
  • mood music
Non-diegetic sound is represented as coming from the a source outside story space. The distinction between diegetic or non-diegetic sound depends on our understanding of the conventions of film viewing and listening.  We know of that certain sounds are represented as coming from the story world, while others are  represented as coming from outside the space of the story events.  A play with diegetic and non-diegetic conventions can be used to create ambiguity (horror), or to surprise the audience (comedy).
Another term for non-diegetic sound is commentary sound.

Thinking & Editing in process

Me and my team members 'IVM' were thinking from our first cut that the ending scene cuts a bit so we were thinking rather than putting two shots together we should pan from one end to the other and speed up the process in imovie to make it flow better.

Also panning will get the audience to see more of the surroundings seeing as our preliminary piece is shot in a school. 

The range of shots should help us to make our piece flow much easier and also it can build a little story in the audiences head as to what is going on in this short piece.
