Pestilence- Directors Commentary coming soon and an update

Hello everyone,

Been a while since I posted anything on here- Sorry about that.

This is just an update on what we have done so far:


  • Pestilence, mine and Dan's AS Level Movie Opening Media Production is finished and on Youtube (Link to my channel at the bottom).
  • Also, we have decided that for our evaluation we will be doing a Director's Commentary, which will be finished editing VERY shortly. 

That's pretty much it for now. Be sure to check out Dan's blog and our Youtube channels:

And keep a close eye to this blog for the Director's Commentary!

Change in plans

This is only really a small change for us- Instead of doing a trailer, we instead had to do the opening to a movie/ TV show. For us it just meant changing some of the writing we had in our video, as it already looked similar to a opening. However, for others in our class it means they had to change pretty much their entire piece of work so far, and re-film some things. However, it looks as though most people are now getting back on track to finishing, so we'll have to waat and see how the other groups handled the change.

Finally coming to a close...

Okay, so I haven't uploaded anything on here for a while... Been doing SO much editing... But it looks like it is finally coming to an end. We have had to change quite a bit in it since our first finished edit but now it's all nearly there. I'll update again when it's done, which should be later today.

I think that's over...

...finally. Whilst I was in a lesson earlier, Dan finished filming Mr. Murphy's scene. Hopefully thats all we'll need Mr. Murphy to do now, so with any luck we won't need to re-film much more.

Re-shoot!

After employing the help of Frank Murphy last week for filming, we had to redo his scene a few days later as the area we used was too light. Learning from our mistakes, we set up the first re-shoot to have the perfect amount of light and included more science-related things to add to the mise-en-scene. However, as we have just noticed, the camera case was in the background of our shot! With no way to remove it, we have no choice but to re-shoot this scene for the THIRD time! I refuse to make any more mistakes with this extremely simple shot, so the third time WILL be the LAST time! I am guaranteeing this shot will go succesfully, so watch this space!
