We asked Maria how the editing and the whole experience was. She found it quite easy, as we had already choreographed scenes and worked out the dialogue. The film had already been structured, which made editing much easier to put together. Maria`s hardest part of the filming was filming outside. This was because there were background noises such as aeroplanes which drowned out the dialogue.However, the patience of everyone helped, as well as the different takes, such as closeups and wide shots.There were hardly any difficulties during editing due to the shot list and the clapper board. The most difficult part for Maria was working out where to put the youtube video parts into the film.
The acting was vey good, making it much easier with the editing. However, at the moment the film still needs a lot of work, especially with the background music and sound. The film had been well planned, and everyone worked well together. The best part of this project, for Maria, was when the group wrote reviews and did roleplay. She found it very humourous and it was very well written, on the whole better than filming. Maria is making another film with a different group of young people next year, which will be shown at the Cornerhouse along with our film in the spring. Today, we watched the rough cut of the film we made, about an obsessed gamer searching for true love. It was worth all the hard work , time and effort spent working on this amazing project!!
The film is going to be shown at the BBC, due to Dave Mee, who starred in the film, having a good relationship with them, which is very exciting.We are also hoping to enter it it into several film festivals. Although at certain points during the project we were hoping that we were still in bed, like most of our friends during half term, all the work was worth it!!
Peace,
Jayne and Saima
