Evaluation:

My final project is entitled ‘It’s just your body I’m stealing’ this is a movie trailer with the concept of it being a feature length film. Instead of recording three minutes of a portion of the feature length film I decided to make a trailer based on two scenes mashed together, the concept for the film is a zombie out break which is presented in a ‘Found Footage’ Style with elements of Mockumentary and black comedy, the elements are prevalent in my trailer as the interview style segment is highly comedic as well as my zombie classroom scene, as I feature the typical zombies to re-enforce the comedic feature. As mentioned above the zombie class room scene is recorded Handy Cam style which for me personally was made easier and free up a lot of filming restraints as I could have filmed it with a tripod and dolly but I decided to just hold the cam t hold a realistic feel to it. One difficulty I had was time constraints in filming and one seen that I had always intended to film didn’t call through all though I will say that personally I felt that the inclusion of the scene would have ultimately ruined my piece, but not just that I feel that I would have had difficulty filming as running with the cam wouldn’t have been efficient due to the fact of, there was a lot of health and safety risks furthermore location is an important part and filming in the college stairs cases would have proved disruptive to students on other floors doing there work and also the use of the stairs. I tried to choose another location but this failed because the only other stairs that I could have easy access to use would be my hostel but due to the health and safety guidelines there I was not allowed to film there so in the end I decided to drop the scene to elaborate further I now feel though that dropping the scene wasn’t a wise decision as I have a trailer of 2 minutes but not much going on, as it cuts between two scene so I feel that I could have included a wider variety to make it appear a trailer rather than a mash of two clips. I am quiet proud of my finished product other than the fact of the two scene, I feel that my editing was done rather well, as I was playing around with the sound level and made Nik’s zombie more deeper and scary yet you could see that there is some form of comedic aspect within the project. To conclude I feel that this project went well, I just think that I shouldn’t have chosen to produce something that could be considered rather ambitious.
