Having captured our film today I found myself feeling a little mixed. I found a lot of the basement scenes had come out really well. In terms of mood and feel, they hit the nail on the head, and the actors and actress themselves played their roles well. However, all the scenes shot for the award ceremony were of a lower standard.
The disappointment with the award ceremony scene may have been due to lack of planning and organisation on the 'extras' part. The whole scene didn't feel as realistic as I'd of liked due to the fact we simply didn't have enough bodies to fill the seating, and had to make do with the few we had.
Having watched the whole footage back twice, it has occurred to me that zooming in and out, and moving the camera with actor is ineffective and a poor use of screen spacing. I also thought the lighting could have been better during the awards scene.
Hopefully we can still make the film work with some heavy-duty visual editing, along with some well placed audio work.
