Music For Film

We are currently in the progress of creating background music to play in our our short production, currently we have music made for the opening scene, the murder scene. It is orchestral music which was made in garageband which really adds to the effect of the murder scene and keeps the viewer engaged. We recieved great feedback and also it has given us ideas to continue this throughout the rest of the production to keep the viewers more excited and engaged.. Pictures to follow on how me made this

Lighting Changes

On Monday 21st March we re filmed some of the card game to try and improve the lighting. We felt some of the shots including those of Peter and Conor were too dull. We used spot lights to enhance the light in the room. we added a new sound track to the start of the film also. We feel we are close to completion but just are correcting a few minor points.
