Small but needed changes..

We were all relatively happy with how things were going but after going through it very closely and analysing it we decided that there were some small cuts which needed to be made. We literally took no more than 2 seconds off of a few shots but the difference it made was unbelieveable. It made the film run so much smoother.

Change in Soundtrack

Due to disagreements within the group, we made two versions of the soundtrack on garage band. On one version there are sounds of traffic in the background and one without. There are different piano sounds in both of the versions at the start of the sequence.

S.E.A Productions

We wanted to create an animation in Adobe Flash to appear to show S.E.A Productions, at the begining of the opening sequence. We wanted to have it under the sea and appear to '"swim" across the screen with oxygen bubbles coming out of it. We tried to do it but everytime we thought we had finished it we weren't happy with it. In the end we had to settle for the fact that we were trying to be to complicated and we had bigger things to sort out, like our rubbish credits!

Producing the soundtrack

To produce a soundtrack to the opening sequence we had to use garage band. The sequence starts off at a very slow pace and the weather is not particularly nice which shows pathetic fallacy. To create a mellow mood, we used a piano sequence at the start. The pace is slow until the main character reaches his apartment. To create suspense when he entered his apartment we used a high pitched sound. The chase sequence starts off with a gun shot and a grime song called Mike Lowry is played.

More credit editing!


We still were not satisfied with the credits. Above is another example of the way we tried to include credits.

Changing from ASE to SEA Productions

Our original production company name was ASE productions as in Adam, Shauna and Emily. We figured it would be better to have a production company that was actually a word. So we have re named ourselves SEA productions.

New and improved sound track!

Thankfully, after hours of searching we found an unsigned artist using the same backing track but with different lyrics. The lyrics he uses actually suit our film better.
