The Project
We were asked by the Royal Shakespeare Company to produce a film based upon the Shakespeare play Titus Andronicus using the original texts. We worked alongside the drama academy students to produce the film. My roles within the production were the secondary cameraman on the first day of filming and also the main editor.
Editing
As the main editor it was important to also consider and incorporate the ideas that came from the rest of the class, this allowed us to discuss what we thought looked best and would work well within the piece. Another large part of this process was choosing the music that would be playing in the different scenes, this was difficult as the music had to be royalty free but also fit the atmosphere that we wanted to create at that moment within the film.
Client Feedback
To aid our evaluation of our film we received feedback from our clients, Sam Lawlor, Kim Morison and Melanie Whitehead. Some of the key positive aspects from the feedback was that through the medium of film we helped boost some of the performances to create a stronger atmosphere. A main criticism was to have a greater consideration of the framing which is evident in some shots. Some other minor improvements were to do with fixing audio levels in certain shots, as they were too loud and became distorted.
Feedback
This shot received a large amount of positive feedback, the overlay worked well to create a very evil and eerie tone which helped emphasize the portrayal of the character.
This is one of the main shots where we should of considered the framing more, as you can see a section of her head has been cut out of the frame.
This is one of the few shots where the audio levels were too loud and caused distortion. We reduced this as much as possible but some of the distortion remained.
