Journal

Sadly, today was the pinnacle of disruption to our opening title sequence as our footage when all put together by Louise just didn't have the sense of fluid transition in which I suppose we all intended it to have. I would like to take some of the blame in this event as my main role was to keep continuity which sadly I did not completely achieve. I personally feel the continuity was not kept because of the way we filmed. By this I don't mean the filming by any means was not great I mean, filming on different days meant a loss of what we achieved previously which was not anyone's fault it was more of time mag ament of the sequence.

It can be noted, though although we have had this obstacle it can only improve our work. So, today we re-filmed the scenes making our main focus me with little tangents of thematic and narratives of the film. The main focus was we writing a funeral speech for my name by the way I'm emulating to be Mr Teddy and then off of this main footage we had so overlapping footage creating this slight hologram effect which really worked well on the new edit.

The sub sections of the film now are still of great relevance if not more as they had me completing slight foolish stunts in practice that didn't connote the seriousness of spy therefore, emphasising the route of the humour which we surpassed. The stunt which I completed today again as Mr Teddy to keep continuity provided the element of action that needed to occur thus making our film fit part of the genre to a higher relevance. We did then decide that we needed to add some footage which we have filmed previously for the reasons that the green screen tracking by Louise has been superb suggesting that we had to use it. Because to an extent it would have been a waste.

Overall, I am rather happy that it is now sorted in terms of the route that we are following but at the same time I am rather disappointed in myself for not spotting it as, arguably this should have been spotted straight away but, as I say it has happened now there is no rectifying. In terms of the plan tomorrow, it is highly likely that the edit will need a lot of work which I feel will be covered in the morning ready for me and daisy to have our input so that it doesn't look sided in contributions- which I am sure it won't once we have completed our roles. I suppose what I learnt today was that structure e is such an important thing in planning coursework.
