15th May

Main points of feedback (about the movie trailer)

+ Positives
1. Make-up style, background music and camera shots are quite good.
2. They could recognize the mise-en-scenes.
3. They liked props, especially organs.
4. They also liked ‘eating scene’ which is the best scene that I am thinking of.

-Negatives
1. It is a good job but it is a quite easy job.
2. They want my title looks creepy.
3. Serena said, she could have made it in a month.
4. When I got into the team, Lyn had already known my project well.
5. Elaine said, I would be able to improve it with many type of camera shot.
6. In blood dropping scene, the blood does not seem like real.


Integration Methodology

1. Make the positives impactive
I have already got the most liked ‘eating scene’ and also my interviewees like variable camera shot. And Lyn recommended that I better use ‘montage’ for some scenes.
I agree with her. It would make audiences feel the characters feelings and thoughts.
All interviewees are in common. It is they like background music.
Fortunately, I have found amazing creepy sound effects by now.
It will be so helpful for making audiences scared.
With those several things, I am going to make positives shiny and make it impactive efficiently

2. Cover up the negatives if it cannot be turned to positives.
My title was dull and nothing matched to the project. It was not even close to it.
So I changed it to bloody letters. However, I think it is not good enough.
That’s why I am learning some Premiere skills.
Interviewees said, the blood does not seem like real.
I have been training how to make mosaic properly. And unfortunately I had to give the camera back to the owner…
Anyway I am not and won’t be able to record again. So that reason, I have to depend on Premiere skills.
Negatives NO.4, no offence, it could be a chance to me. If I make Lyn scared and she get some message from my movie, it must work to the audiences.

3. There is one thing more.
When the interviewees were watching my movie, they told me, they could not get an idea from my movie. So I had to explain to them. It is not a full movie, this is a trailer. It is not telling the whole story. It is for provoking target audiences’ curiosities.
With that circumstance, I obviously had to explain about what they’d needed to know.
Means in the full movie, maybe someone can get whole thing, but others not.
Therefore, I decided I would put some scrolling up title about the short introduction at the beginning of the movie.

I hope that please do not under-estimate the movie with this trailer.
I have changed a lot and there will be more and more.

12th may



Still I cannot upload screen shots of last week.

And I am editing my movie and CCTV footage with Premiere CS4.

Unfortunately CCTV file format is DivX which means it is not readable in Premiere.

So I changed file format to normal AVI and it was working at my computer.

Today when I got to school, opened Premiere and I recognized it does not work
at school.

It works only on CS5... plus, even CS4 Premiere screen is little bit strange.

trouble.. trouble.. trouble..

May 5th

I cannot take a film on a day time.

T.T

I have been trying to have actors like volunteers.

Unfortunately, no one wants to do... especially zombie..act...

And I made an appointment to take a film in the Internet cafe on Monday&Wednesday 2 AM.

So that, I have to make a decision, I 'll do the main actor and I'll persuade them to do it
on my way(kind of compulsory way).

First scene would be taken from TODAY.

April 29th, Friday


Fake blood is mixed with wheat powder&tomato sauce.
It's colors too bright. But I found out something on Internet that says
better combine soy-sauce, tomato sauce and sugar together.
I'll try it later on. And wheat powder is not good enough to show pale skin.
I should try another way like using baby powder.

New type of zombie movie

concept statement.

"Internet makes zombies"



Nowadays, we cannot imagine living without Internet.

I have no doubt about that it is useful and fast to get any information.

But I want to talk about the 'side effect' like Internet addiction.

That Internet addiction is shown by someone who is using Internet for a long time and everyday.

And they sometimes show their addiction in a violence way.

So I am going to express that 'anger' as zombies' 'hunger'.

Normally in the zombie movie, turn normal people to the zombies by bitten by another entity.

But in my movie, Internet stimulates turning to zombies.

Zombies no thought, addicted net people no thought.

Both of them are aggressive as well!!

Inspiration


Death by zombies, Special make up skills



Cinematography of Paranormal activity
