Animatic and Storyboard:
I encountered problems using Adobe Premiere Pro but managed to finally make the animatic for my film to see how long the sequence would last. I exported it onto Youtube (see video below)
I had to use one of my friends to act as the mysterious man as the actor I will use lives in Droitwich and couldnt make it down for the shoot in Worcester. We also had to improvise with props as the props I have ordered off amazon such as the tribly hats have not arrived. I didnt put an audio track to it as I didnt want the audio to be the main focus that the shots went around. The track will simply be used as background music. I found it on freeplaymusic.com under the 'moods' section. It reminded me of the music used in Film Noirs as it is quite dramatic.
Feedback from Animatic:
Most people so far have responded really well to the animatic and thought it “flowed really nicely.” Some said that it was confusing because of the lack of sound
“I think it would really help the story if there was some form of sound or any speech”, but were already beginning to pick up on some of the ideas. For example, people were picking up on the tension between the femme fatale and the main man.
Some people also said it was “slightly confusing” because the person playing the mysterious man wasn’t the person who is actually casted to play him which made it slightly confusing. However people like the idea of the mysterious man once it was explained. I think the audience perhaps found it confusing due to the fact that we were using Barthes’ enigma code to create questions for our audience which can sometimes be quite misleading.
We plan on getting more feed back once we have done some filming and we can show what we have done so far to people and get their responses.
