Sound-Mercia
Sound was quite difficult to figure out as we had to choose a sound that would match the opening sequence. I used garage band to make some beats which suited our opening sequence. As it was difficult making a beat just using garage band, i used clip grab and looked on you-tube to find other beats which matched our opening sequence. I had to make sure that it was not copy right. After i finally found a sound i was happy with and my group was also happy with, i imported it in to garage band and added some of the beats that i had put together beforehand. When i was completely satisfied with the sound, i then imported the sound onto final cut pro where the opening sequencewas to see if the sound will go well with the film.

what i learnt while using the software
Motion- I learnt how to use it better to my ability. I learnt how to do students with it and I've bee able to create title sequenees and know how to make them look good.
Final cut pro- first time using it ever was when staring media. It was a great experience. I've learned how to do transitions,slow motion, change the colour and add sound.
Garage band- I kinda knew how to use this before starting our opening sequence but ive been able to developers these skills in a better way so I van now later in like great a song I could be proud of.

my view on plot changes
We changed our plot from seeing all the different cliche (stereotype groups) to one that's less funny and has a bigger impact.
We made the plot more relatable to. So the audience can actually share emotions with the lead character. This would create a bigger impact on the audience making them remember the film more.
The new plot is basically we have the present day and the past. We represent the past with flashbacks. In the present day we see the main character walking home and in the flashbeck we see him getting beat up and Bullied by two girls. So the theme Is bullying which is very relatable.

blooging feedback
To make my blog better I was told to:
1) upload blogs every 3-4 times a week and make sure to not upload them all on one day but to separate them out.
2) was also told to change colour of my text due to it not being able to be read on blog background. We sorted that out by changing the background to a nature one instead of the red one.
3) I was also behind on blogs when I first started so was told I had to catch up and I think I did a good job in doing that.

how our team work went to me
I think without team work we could not have got this done. Our team was able to work together wel and get things done. We were able to split jobs up, which got out opening sequence done faster and it meant we were able to be confident in what we were doing withput paniking alot about not completing it on time. We also kept on contact with each other everyday. We planned on what to do the day before.
There was some stressful times with each other due to the fact we were under alot of stress just in case we xould not get it done but we all pulled through it. It was great working in a team like this we made sure we were all okay . Ll and that if we need any help then we would be there

interview with the editor
What was it like working with the crew?
It was very intresting, I had worked with in the past doing minor work so this was a bit strange for us but we are good friends and it was great being able to work with them.
How hard was it to edit the opening sequence?
It was pretty hard at points due to final cut pro being glitchy but I was able to sort that out and work past it. We used different transtions and changed the colour of some segmant we also used slow motion which I was happy to use because it show what we know about final cut pro
What do you think of the final product?
I think its actually really well done. There is a range of shots used, the sound changed when it needs to, I used a trange of effecta to help crwat the flash back look better. I think overal it was good there could of been some changes here and there but norhings pergect right.

what I think could of went better
What could of went better:
1) communication/time
The comnuincation was really good between our group. There was a problem with trying to communicate with someone due to the lack internet conncetion at times. We used a facebook group chat to keep in contact everyday.this meant that they were late sometimes and were not unable to turn up.
2) shots
Even though our shota were amazing, our first shots were to shaky. So we had to re-shoot a wholr flash back which took up a bit of time bit we were able to re-shoot in the half term.

what i think went well
The things that went well while filming and editing:
1) our shot
We were able to get a wide range of shots, which allowes us to show different shot types and we were able to show where our location was shot. We were avle to get shots from different positions ans angles.
2) final piece
Not only did we edit and film in the time we had but were did a pretty good job id I do say myself. We had some little issues here and there but other then that it went well. We worked well as a group giving each other jobs to do but at the same time keeping everyone in the group involved with desicions.
3) our timing
We were able to get timing right. We got filming done on time which meant rhe last two weks we could focus on the sound and motion. we also got it in on time.

Editing- Nazmin
To edit the footage to make the title sequence High School from hell, we had to use final cut pro. We first had to trim all the shots together so they all match together. By doing this, it gave the final product a more professional affect to it.
When all the footage matched together, I put video transitions on it (such as cross dissolve, did to dip colour and fade in and fade out), especially where the flashback scenes start and end. Moreover, to indicate that there is a flashback scene, we wanted to change the colour of the scene to black and white.
Also, when liam is walking towards to the lift, we decided to change the speed of that particular scene. We changed it to 50%- slow motion.
