Our Finished One Shot Film


One Shot Film: Was it worth it? from George Pickles on Vimeo.
Here is the final edit of our One Shot film.  As is evident from watching the film, we have pushed the boundaries of the rules by putting the camera on a Dolley (on wheels) so we could move the shot around without physically touching the camera. Although I am reasonably happy with the final shot, I still believe that with better props the film would of been more successful.
Within the edited version, we have added a dance audio track that has a muffle effect. This co-ordinates with the character moving from one room to another and also suggests the idea of time passing. Moreover, we have also added a title sequence to match the video. The final stage of post production editing was the increasing of saturation of the entire film. This was done because the lighting seemed to “bleach out” the whole scene, possibly because the white balance wasn't set properly on the camera when we recorded the original footage. Regardless, the film looked better with added saturation which adds to the films effectiveness.
Overall,  I think that the final edit was reasonably successful and I am proud of our first One Shot Film. Enjoy!
