Checkmate FINAL

Finally uploaded onto youtube!

Deadline

It was the deadline for our two minute film openings on Friday and we're all so glad to have it finally exported onto the mac ready to be watched! We started editing our outtakes already and look forward to getting those up! It's been a great learning experience for all of us and seeing everyones films on friday really helped to see just how far everyone has come.

Production company name

The unedited version of our production company name, filmed on my phone!

Music

Sinead managed to find the music we wanted on youtube and luckily it wasn't copyrighted. We're all very happy with the music and it fits our film opening perfectly in terms of length and genre.

Final Editing Time

It's coming up to the deadline for our film openings and we're doing well! Hopefully everything will be finished in time and we'll be happy with the result. Glad we didn't have to worry about the copyright for our music.

Production

We've finally come up with our production company name! We first thought of rocky, inspired by our prelim, then rock and roll and then onto rolling-thinking of camera rolling as well.
Lucy and Sinead created this little CD and I just filmed the intro where the CD rolls back and forth. The editing is coming along rather nicely and hopefully we will have perfected everything by next Friday!

Update

Just an update on how the editing and the final product is going. We've all been spending quite some time in the media room trying to perfect the film opening and as we've got so much footage from the last scene we're constantly thinking about the different shots and angles that could possibly be better than what we already have. The last week and a half is going to be hard work making the finishing touches but we seem to work really well editing as a whole group and completely trust one another with it as we all seem to have the same vision in mind.

Also, we've finally decided on a production company name! -Rolling Productions has been created, the opening credits filmed thanks to sinead and lucy. We decided on something short and effective. Rolling makes us all think of a camera rolling which clearly links in with the media and everything. 

Hopefully we don't have too much to do now, just to incorporate our names in the film and which shouldnt take up too much time. Hopefully the finished film opening is what we expected!
