Rough Cut 2 Feedback

In a previous lesson after we had continued with editing and adding titles, we showed are fellow peers again of what we had done so that they could see if we took on board their comments from the previous time. Yet again we got feedback on what we did well and things that we could have improved on. 

Two of our fellow peers Chantelle and Joyce  both confirmed that they liked  the title effects that was used when showing the names of who they were in order of importance and the way that it was displayed. It wasn't just anywhere it was well executed and thought of. The way it was positioned was very good as well, as it wasn't a distraction to what was actually going on whilst the actors were acting. They also said they enjoyed the handheld camera effect that was used throughout, it wasnt just put anywhere just to fill up uneccessary space. It was done well enough to be put in places that it needed to be, adding effect helping build that suspense that they could see. the handheld camera effect also wasn't a continious thing it only used when needed creating a good effect that would intrigue the target audience. 

An improvement that was given was that at the beginning of the film there was a bright flash straight after showing the director, it looked slightly odd and that it could be changed to a different transition just so that it flows better. Especially as it doesn't look like a transition you would normally see in a horror film.

However another peer named Luke had said that he liked the transaction that was used and the way it looked because in his personal view it did look fluent between the two.

BBFC

To be able to determine and decide our classification age for our horror film as a group and not an individual we went on to BBFC website and studied the classifications for films and what was included in each classification. we had to think about what the rest of our film would have been to then be able to judge the film classification. we thought very carefully and then determined that the age classification we though best fit our Horror film is age 15 and it includes all things that we had within our introduction and things that would have liked to include in the ret of the Horror film. It includes; strong language, violence,  brief scenes of sexual violence or verbal references to sexual violence, discriminatory language or behaviour and sexual nudity.
