Evaluation of the Rough cut

Last Friday we ensured that we had a rough cut so that we were able to find out what the other people in the class thought of what we had accomplished so far. This allowed us to make an evaluation of how much we still had left to do. We found out that at some points it was difficult to follow what was going on on our opening sequence because there were parts that did not link together very well and they jumped a little bit. We realised that we still had to add a title and also add the soundtrack to the opening sequence in order to make it flow better and to make it easier to understand what is going on in the storyline.
Some members of the class said that it was difficult to tell whether or not the character was in the dreamworld so we added blurring and ghosting onto the points of view shots to make it appear as if the character is disorientated and also to add the effect that he was confused and had no idea where he was. This helped us to portray our idea of confusion and also worked quite well because it kept people guessing at where he was going. We have also added the soundtrack which contains exerpts from several films, with piano and drums which allows us to use the idea of eerieness and also to build tension.
