Apart from the camera, tri pod and pag light used to film the footage, we needed a dock to copy all the footage onto the Apple Mac. After all the footage was transferred onto the computer we used Final Cut Pro to cut down all the footage we had so that it is continuous, with out all any jumps. We then used Soundtrack Pro to get the appropriate music and sound effects together to add tension to the film and to make it look more professional.
this is final cut pro in which we edited the footage and added the score music all in scyc we shared these duties as the task was quite long a tedious.

Editing Diary by Will
We began editing the day after filming, all three of our group contributed to the editing as this was able to allow us to all contribute towards the final product. We had ten minutes worth of filming which we cut down to 3 and half minutes then we left it for the night. We continued editing the next monday to try and cut it down further to two minutes, we managed to do that and then added music, sound effects, the logo and credits. Editing is now completed.

Filming Diary (philip)
We picked up the camera, tri-pod and pag light on Monday and went to the set to begin filming, we then set up the tri-pod and camera. After a little trouble ajusting the pag light to the right angle we started filming, all three of us shared responsibilities filming as we all had different ideas how to film the shots. After a little while our power pack was running out of battery, this was a continuing problem. So after a very cold half an hour we returned to filming and following our storyboard, we decided to remove some shots as we weren't capable in the space that we had. After four hours we finished filming and returned home.

Score notes (Michael Ariyo)
The score music is a very important part of a movie as it connotes its genre to the audience. For Example If It Was A Horror Movie Like Saw It Would Have Slow Erie Music Rather Than A Fast Paced Music Like James Bond. The Score Music Sets The Scene, So For Our Score Music We Will Be Having Fast Pace Music, Or Something That Thrills The Audience Like A Heartbeat.
We Will Be Using The Software Such As Soundtrack Pro For Our Score Music as It Comes With Preloaded Music Instead Of Creating Our Own Therefore Saving Us Time.
After Finding Suitable Score Music We Will Upload It To Sound Cloud Which Will Allow Us To Publish The Music Onto The Blog.
This Is Our Score Music
Surveillance by willphil12
I Believe It Represents The Genre Well Because Its Fast Paced, And Gives The Audience A Sense Of Being Thrilled

Case Study : Scream (philip)
Scream, from the very begining of the movie, sound is present. The movie starts out right away with creepy music in the background, as we see the film start.It is followed by a rumble, as if several doors are bein closed shut. While the errie music is still going the title of the movie is streached out and comes back together with a loaud crash. the feeling of the movie suddenly changesby the phone ringing the ring of the phone cuts out all other sounds for example the heart beat and the erry music by doing this the director is playing on the audiences other sences other than just sight. Another example of sound being used is when Casy begins to flirt with the anonymous man; she lies and tells th caller that she doesn'y have a boyfriend. By doing this the film fits the classic codes and conventions of
popular horror movies by using "naive teenagers". Theres at the feeling that something bad is going to happen. When the viewer realises that this call is not a silly prank call, as the movie continues the tension is getting built up and he slowly building the character to get scared. When casy is being chased by the killer, she goes outside and the viewer can hear is her breathing is fast , full of gasps and sobs. This again creates more tension. The director has also used canted camera alot to give the effect that somethingis going to go wrong in the scences.

Location Notes
We will be filming our 2 minute film inside this garage. we chose to film here as it creates a dark and suspense atmopsphere which is what we wanted to create because of the genre of the film. we will add our own props to make it look more violent by adding knives and saws to make it look like a torture scene. it will be filmed at night time so it will look even darker inside the garage. there will be one bright light shining on the face of the client being tortured and the face and identity of the lawyer will remain anonymous.
