music tracks

Some pretty epic music for some scenes - try to listen all the way through, some bits might be better than others.
- use stuff like this to take inspiration from in creating music for the film
use of army drums, drones etc;

I know they are off the same game, but they will work well with a war film.

Music

taking a page out of band of brothers' book, we might not include music to add a certain realism to it, but i do have a good load of bare war film tuneage if we do choose to include music
Im thinking of adding a drone to build tension in 'troughs' and faster paced music at peaks - on top of shouts, gunshots whatever to make a really immersing sound overload.

What went well with the cinematography

What went well in cinematography   

On the day of the filming, it went great everything went to plan, we got loads of filming done and the weather was really good. Everyone turned up on time for the filming and we got loads and loads of different camera angles. 

Pictures to show the cast and what went well... 



We got loads of different camera shots angles and movements to go into this sequence making it look far more interesting and captivating.

Directors Task

Even though most of my targets were met on the day of filming, I still have a few more to complete in lesson. By Thursday I will have:

  • Bought in an SD card adapter to allow the footage to be used more effectively
  • Analyze the footage against the storyboard and work alongside the editor to include the more realistic and appropriately directed pieces
This will help our finished product be AWSOME!!

editing task for end of week

my task for end of week is to get a sequence that is roughly in order so we have a understanding of the order and length the sequence will roughly meet.
also i will be hoping by more the end of the week to start cutting the footage down into its fina cutting form so that we get cleaner shots and the sequence isnt in a coomplete rough form.
another aspect will be looking at is having the footage all uploaded completely and all in the final cut program ready to edit and get into a rough cut.

Sound Aims

Aims in terms of sound are:
  • Add MG-42 gun sounds and  cut them to fit the 'burst' fire.
  • Use 'ambient sound' to create atmosphere
  • Cut out annoying shiz like wind 
  • Exaggerate things like 'crunches' at paradrop 
  • add diegetic sounds like shouts, gunfire,  other war atmospheric stuff.
So im gonna try to get this done by thursday - wind will be cut during editing, but i shall try to fin the diegetic sound about on the internet, and we could make your own foley shouts.                                                           

Aims

What we do now is to make aims to meet before thursday;
As Soundman, im going to get a load of sound effects for us to choose and add to the clip.
Mitch is going to put a rough cut together for thursday, and we will discuss what stuff to put in and what clips to add/cut and ting with Mel and Harri.
Much love
