Finishing the project

The childrens film we were making was not 100% by the deadline so we had to hand in a uncompleted project. All that needs to be done on the film is the music added to the video and the titles need to finished.

Titles

We chose a title style we thought suited to children it was hobo standard,font color was light green. we have decided to place these titles at the beginning of the opening scene,e.g. actors names next to the actors.

Music for my my song 5

This is happening at the beginning of the film we used a country style music faded into the background. For the elevator music we used a classical broadway music called 'Off broadway' which worked well as a background sound for the scene.

ending scene music

For the ending we used a forest sound effect to create the scene we faded this out in places to make it sound like a background sound. We put in a big waterfall sound in as well to make more of an effect of the scene.

music for children's film

created music for running scene,using suspense accent one for the beginning of the scene when professor bull spots the two main characters. a chase scene follows this ,we used galleria medium for this. Lastly we used bongo grove no.1 for the ending chase scene.

Filming childrens film

in the filming of the opening sequence for our children's film we used a variety of shots and equipment such as a dolly for running shots and a tripod for stability, although we had to re film some scenes because we have some uninvited people walk into our shots.

stroyboard

slow shots that fit together well. Two characters who are going to skip school. They run around the school trying not to get noticed. Starts of slow and then the genre changes with the music.
