Evaluation of my media product

Okay so before you see Esme and I's final horror opening for Inside I want to make you aware of some changes we have made to the storyline and also identify why these changes have been made...

  • The doll was abandoned. We filmed the scene where Alice was possessed by the doll however when editing this scene it proved difficult to communicate our idea to our audience. We asked various people to watch it and provide us with feedback which resulted in us abandoned the doll as a prop. As an alternative we had her possessed by a spirit that lives in the house.
  • The park scene as featured in our initial storyboard was also abandoned as the location proved too difficult to get to and it was also a public area which meant that we could not anticipate whether people would try to get in the shot and ruin it. Also, on the days we allocated to filming, the weather was not as pleasant as we would have wanted it to be and so it would not portray the idea of 'happy family in the sun'.
  • We changed the characters featured. Olivia Martin and Zac Levin who were featured in our character profiles to play the parent roles were often busy and so it proved difficult to arrange a date we could all do and so to fit to our short filming schedule we just had a mother who I played the role as. This idea added to the idea of vulnerability as there was not the typical macho man father to protect his daughter or wife.
To further present the changes made to our horror opening I am going to post a picture of the final storyboard.
