Re pitch from OliStr

A small powerpoint going over the recent rough cuts we made as a group and how my blog is, in strengths and weaknesses. We also go over our target audience and why it is so. For example male / female gaze (in powerpoint). We also go over our audience feedback received throughout our early filming stages.

PODCAST 8: Reflecting shoot

...

...

This podcast goes over the general reflection of our shoot from yesterday. We go over some problems and a few of the changes we have made since the last rough cut.

PLANNING Analysis on Rough Cut 1

We need to reflect and improve on:

• Clear frame shifts
• Focus on continuity
• Achieve verisimilitude
• Emphasis on scream queen
• Bare shoulders putting clothes on?
• tight, ripped jeans
• tight skirt
• bright red lip-stick
• more make-up in general
• etc.
• Instead of the guy saying "yes" he should say "no" as in slashers the "untruthful" people usually get killed.
• Add horror cliches
• Squeaky door
• False scare
• A dog or cat opening the door.
• The guy goes out of bedroom to check and hears a scream from the bedroom. Runs back to check and then the T.V is flickering.
• Clearer gender roles
• Man protects girl much clearer
• "Wait here!"
• "Stay back!" 
• etc.
• Instead of black socks for the female, use pink.
