This is our group final cut of the film 'Mask' we have produced. There are slight differences between this final version and the rough cut we uploaded (corrections in title spellings and minimal cutting with the video to make it shorter).

Working On Set

Here are pictures taken of both of us (David and Toby) working on the set whilst filming our thriller film opening. We also helped direct actors with the general way they were to act whilst on screen.This was the first time working with these high quality cameras, although a challenge we believe we have now developed competent skills working with these cameras.

Storyboard Animatic

This is our storyboard animatic that I (David) compiled by taking pictures that convey various camera shots and angles that will be used for various shots when we go out and shoot our film. I also used final cut in sequencing the images together. After Toby also added foley sounds and background suspenseful ambient music that is very iconic of a thriller into the animatic. This task has given us a better overview of how our film opening is shaping up, and now by doing this any improvements can be added to furthermore before we go out and shoot our film.

 

Here is a screenshot of me working on the animatic.
