Cumha test runs


To get used to the camera we'll be using (Canon EOS 1300D), we decided to do a test run of some of the shorter scenes we're planning to use in the final product. We tried shots 14, and 17, 20, 23.



 Here is the final edited product of the few scenes we tried;






This exercise was an excellent idea as it really helped us get used top the new camera, and also to try some editing techniques, such as colour correction.

Update on filming 3

Our main actor Calum has dropped out completely. We found a new actor very last minute,  Michael Kelly , whose willing to jump in and fill his role.

We first ruled out using a screenshot from the movie, as this isn't a very professional approach, and then decided not to go along the lines of using the dart as a) the dart board never appears in movie and b) it implies that the movie would be a slasher or horror, which it is not.  Here are the photos we took after we smashed the clock, a symbol of The Boy's hopes and fantasies, as a hint to people looking at the poster of what is to happen.  At first, we couldn't decide between the third or fourth photo, so I decided to do some trials with the third photo, as it's my favourite photo, but it wasn't portrait, as most posters ar...
