Advert 2 so far

This is a video of Advert 2 so far. Excuse the low quality setting!



We are not far from finishing this. The main thing which we need to do is sort out the music. We also need to edit voice overs to fit exactly with the action (especially towards the end where it is a delayed 'ahhh') We have other voice overs which we are going to try as the one we have now is a bit too quiet.

There is also one shot which we are going to replace/edit as we've just noticed that there is a shadow of the tri-pod! We have literally just added in the shot of the geek walking into the shot and sitting next to his girlfriend. The end of this shot needs to be edited in order for it to fit nicely with the shot that is immediately after it. However, this is the shot with the shadow of the tri-pod in it, so we will end up using one of the other shots. :]

The music is also going to change. We have decided to change our original idea of having only an instrumental song, to having a song with a combination of instrumental parts and vocals. We have decided to do this because the characters in the adverts do not speak therefore we need to have some sort of lyrics. In addition to this, we will also have to include some diegetic sound, preferable in the reactions of the characters and the jingle part of the advert in order to achieve and aspect of realism.

In comparison to our original storyboard, it has changed a lot. We were originally following the storyboard however as we were carry out the shots, we didn't feel like it was flowing very well and the shots did not match the codes and conventions of the advert. We had too many long and mid shots meaning that we had to change this so that we had more close ups instead. The jingle part of the storyboard, from when the geek takes the mints out of his pockets onwards, is still the same as our original storyboard and we found that this worked well even when we came to filming it.
