Evaluate suitability of coverage

This is an evaluation of suitability of coverage, assessing whether covered the shots that we needed. 

This is a blooper where we're meant to take a shot of the main character waking up. However the camera man took the shot a second early which made it fail. We decided to take the shot again instantly after, as the first shot was a fail. The shot requires no other noises to be taken as well as to have only the character scene in the clip waking up from a deep sleep. The props such as the bag and phone should be included here as they will help make it connect with the previous scene as well as the scenes that could come afterwards.

This is the actual shot where we took what was needed. This shows that we have covered this blooper section as we've instantly made the decision after failing the first shot to retake it. Within this scene the props are properly shown as well as the character actually wakes up on sync with the filming. The audio may contain the cameraman saying however this could be easily edited afterwards and does not require more time to be spent on this scene. After this shot we've decided that this shot would be one of the final shots in the whole short film as the character is waking up seeing the objects in front of him, picks up the bag, phones and tries to walkaway in disbelief. Within this shot the camera would also close up on the board game which shows a piece that was moved, that was not moved previously. 

This scene consists of a character who is wandering around, but is being crept on by a masked figure. The masked figure is showing in the mise en scene to have an abnormal presence as he leans in from the pillar in a mysterious way, staring at the protagonist as they are walking. This could create an unease or tense feeling in the audience as they do not know what to expect from this figure. This figure is show to have abnormal behaviour which could make the audience stress or be creeped out. The figure shows no face throughout the film, his identity remains a secret, the purpose of this was to leave audiences in doubt of who it was behind the mask as well as whether they were human as all the events that were seen in the short film leading up to this point could be seen as to be caused by the clown masked figure. Leaving the audience in question for this would push them in terms of curiosity making them want to find out who it is, which would make them more interested and engaged in the show.

This is a fictional horror character who's name is Jason Vorhees. Within this film the character has shown to always wear their mask and it is never actually shown on film of the actual characters face. This creates mystery and is sort of the aspect that we wanted to head in for our masked figure, as the audience will barely know anything about the character as they watch our short film. This can make the audience question out of interest who or what they may be.

The mise en scene of this scene was perfect as it displayed a setting that we needed. The staging consisted of more grey colours not only in this scene but through out the point of the show where the character is transported. This could create meaning to the audience as it could be viewed that the main character has been shifted to a world with less colour and less appealing to look at. This could also link with the moments where the character is constantly trying to find his way around after randomly appearing in that location but has difficulty. This scene contains footsteps sound effects to help emphasise the scene. This can connote . The sound would be considered as diegetic as it can physically be seen within the scene that the character is running.

Our running scene can link to another example coming from the film Baby Driver. This scene specifically is where the main character runs from the police. The police sounds could be considered as diegetic as they are seen in the background. There are also light footsteps that can be heard from the running, which makes it a diegetic sound as we can see him running. This scene contains music over the background to help make it from the audience point of view more action based and suspenseful. This is also something that we have attempted to implement as we have played music on our running action based scenes. We believe having that sound there would boost the suspense. The fast movement of the camera within the Baby Driver movie scene is also another convention that we had similarities. The character seen in our film contains heavy movement, making the visibility more blurry with these scene to make the scene more action packed.
