Imovie issues

Unfortunately I have been facing some problems with uploading clips to IMovie. I have been editing everything on my own laptop so I am going to try and put  my movie on a memory stick and put it on the school computer, then try to upload it to YouTube and my blog that way. However, because of this issue I have been unable to show progress of the making of my short film as I needed to continue with the editing to get it done as soon as possible.

this video shows the changes i made to the scene where the glass smashes.

storyboards

 here are my first storyboards for my short film. I will plan my video around these, testing out shots to see if they work or not.

planning for film

little white lies film review pic

 this is a film review of the movie Neds in the magazine little white lies. there is a photo at the top of the page of a clip taken from the movie, which will act as a preview for the readers. the image shows a young boy looking scared face to face with a hooded figure who is standing over him, making the young boy look vulnerable and the hooded figure look powerful. the fact that we can't see the face of the person in the coat will make the audience want to go see the film to find out who it is, and why the young boy looks so terrified. for my film review, I will also use an engaging image from my film to catch the attention of the reader. the layout of the page is three columns which is a common convention of a review. underneath the image there's information about the film such as the director, who is starring in the film and when it will be released. I think this is a good idea because it is easy for the audience to see and read it.  

Editing Practise

I chose the song 'sax' by Fleur East and used iMovie to create a short piece of clips edited together to fit the song. I used a website called save media to transfer YouTube clips onto iMovie. This task has improved my editing skills on iMovie and will allow me to progress further when editing my own short film.
