The Animatic: Feed back and process notes


We received some really useful pointers from our immediate feedback from our other class members, regarding our animatic, such as...

   They noticed our re-use of shots, meaning that when it comes to shoot day we need to keep this in mind and not go by the story board, and try to get as many shots as we can.
   When the rapper comes on the scene needs to dramatically change so we see something completely new, to mirror what the rapping does to the song.
   In the song a clear single line is "Goon Rock, are you ready?” The point was made that we need to identify which person (the rapper/ DJ) Goon Rock is.
   There is a section where there are 12 quick claps within the DJ section, a suggestion was made that we make quick cuts in time with the claps to give impact and suspense towards the drop.
We also received some positive comments in which we need to keep up
   Our quick cuts are good and make it feel like a professional shoot
   The narrative was very clear, and easy to follow
   The cutting was very much in time, and fitting with the feel of the music (however did slack towards the end).
   They liked the idea of the auditions and then judges reaction and felt that it was going to be a very amusing video.
Throughout the actual process we learnt a few things that we will take with us when editing the actual video.
   The main thing that we realized was the amount of recycled shots. We therefore had to strongly acknowledge that even though our storyboard was large, we hadn't enough substantial and interesting shots and angles in which we could use.
   We realized we needed far more ways of filming the auditions rather than just wide shots; however felt that this would come on the day.
   The music was dramatically cut to fit to the common pop song 3 to 3.30 minutes.
   We need to think about more implications to show that the set is being put up, besides a smoke machine lights and a time lapse.
Here is a video of the immediate feedback after they watched the animatic.
