Technology:
Here are some pictures of our edit suite:
- We used Adobe Premiere Pro to edit our film sequence...
We then exported our finished film to youtube...
There are also two other films which we created to go with this project:
- A 'Behind the Scenes' video
- An 'Errors' video

Poster for BLACKOUT:
I, Tom A, decided that after collecting many screenshots for my evaluation, that I could attempt to create a poster for our film using them. So I did. Realising however that not all the information that goes on a film poster was in our opening sequence...
Still, here is my attempt...

Teacher Feedback: The Final Cut
We were very pleased with the feedback we received from our teachers. They all were really impressed by what we had managed to acheive.
- The new fight scene worked well, with the 'bad guy' looking more professional and less like a thug!
- Continuity works perfectly with no very noticable flaws.
- The camerawork is imersive and lively, with handheld techniques giving it a raw quality.
- The editing is fast paced and action packed, but also thrilling and suspense-filled.
- The acting is really professional and makes the narative really dramatic and scary!
- The music works brilliantly with the picture and helps build suspense.
- The titles at the beginning and end make the final product look very professional.
- The fade to white at the end cleary indicates to the audience that the film is about to begin.

Final Titles
There weren't enough shots that were long enough to have a title in it, and we didn't want to have the same title in consective shots.
There weren't enough suitable tracking points in many of the shots, and many of the shots are handheld so the shot moves too irregularly to track effectively.
The process is very time consuming, and we didn't have that much time.
We were influenced to have these titles at the begining and end from many films such as The Bourne Supremacy which is a very similar genre to ours and then also a Monty Python film which although different in genre uses the titles very successfully.
