Final Production on Facebook & Twitter - Daniel Da'Costa Brewster

Our final production 'Behind Closed Doors' uploaded on Facebook.
Our final production 'Behind Closed Doors' tweeted on Twitter.


Both Facebook and Twitter allow us to upload our final production which means that people can view it and it is a form of viral marketing, if we upload it to these websites it is ultimately free which means that it won’t cost us anything to do ensuring that we gain recognition for free. This form of viral market gives us an edge, with the invention of web 2.0 in 2001 it makes it easier for smaller industries like us (DMS Entertainment) to distribute our product to a wider audience, this opens up the door for us to be spotted by other larger companies which could team up with us for another production in the future, this is a win, win situation which doesn't have many flaws and has many pros.

Weekly Update: 11th December - 18th December

This week we have finished the film. The film was completed on Tuesday and given in and I can say we as a team are now very relieved. The film has not been uploaded yet as it is to feature in our school's first film festival tomorrow lunchtime after which we will upload the film.

This week we have been also completing all work that needs to be completed in Post-Production and evaluation. It has been a very busy week but we have pulled through as a team.

Weekly Update: 4th December - 11th December

As stated in the last weekly update we were meant to film over the weekend. All equipment was booked and we as a team were ready to film but yet again we had hit a brick wall as our actor was again unable to film. We then changed plans to film on Monday but our actor was unable to come as they had broken down on the motorway. We did wait for them but they were still on the motorway at 10pm so we then again rescheduled to today, Wednesday 4th December. Hopefully all goes well and we are able to film everything smoothly and well enough to get really decent footage. We plant to hand in a final draft on Friday morning giving Daniel time to edit for the rest of the day so that he finishes enough and continues on Monday to give in the final copy on Tuesday.

Weekly Update: November 27 - December 4th

This week we have filmed the whole of Lucy's individual sequences. We did plan to also film the father's parts but unfortunately circumstances did not allow, as the actor was unavailable on the days we could film apart from Sunday but then the girl playing Lucy was not available on Sunday. On the other hand, the filming of Lucy's scenes went very well. As a team we all had some input as to how we were to re-film the scenes to achieve better shots and a range of shots as Daniel came to it with editors viewpoint, Sunraj a directors viewpoint as the whole film is his vision and I with the viewpoint of a camera person. We have now completed all of Lucy's individual scenes and would not have to re-film any of it. Daniel has been putting the new footage together after logging and capturing everything and he says it is going well.

Therefore this coming up weekend we plan to finish filming our whole film by shooting the father's scenes.

Weekly Update: 20th November - 27th November

This week we were concentrating on our ancillary tasks as the deadline for our posters and reviews was due on Monday 25/11/2013. Daniel finished off the first draft of our film and feedback to Sunraj and I. We now as team plan to film today, tomorrow, Friday and Saturday. This time when we film we would have Daniel's input which would be helpful as he is the editor and would have a great insight as to how the overall product would turn out with the range of shots and angles we capture. Hopefully all goes well throughout the rest of the week.

This week we've also begun on our individual evaluations and post-production task.

Weekly Update: 6th November - 13th November

From Friday 9th November - Sunday 11th November we were film at the house that was to be used as the home for the father and his daughter. Things didn't start off well on Friday as the actress was delayed, we therefore had to cancel filming and begin on Saturday as it had gotten to dark to film.
On Saturday we began filming at 9:30 am and finished around 6 pm. Filming was a long process but luckily most things fell into place, we didn't have any problems with the camera's battery and the actors were all on time. On the other hand, as the camera person I faced some difficulty as the Tri-pod we had to use was a bit faulty due to previous damage. The faultiness of the Tri-pod meant that I had to be very careful when we were filming making sure the camera was straight. The scenes we filmed on Saturday were the character's arriving home and the main scene. On Sunday we filmed from 2 pm - 4 pm and were able to finish filming all scenes. Then on Monday, we logged and captured the footage and after Daniel begun to edit it.

Also during this week we have been working on finishing our ancillary task. Therefore we are all working individually most of the time whilst in class.

Weekly Update: 30th October - 6th November

Unfortunately, as things happen we were unable to film during the half term due to further complications of actresses to play the role of Lucy the daughter. However, we have finally found someone whom is defiantly able to film on our chosen days and we did start filming on Monday. It was a good first take of the scene where Lucy is in the room by herself but as I stated in the location notes we had to film the scene again due to the lighting of the room. We've kept both sets of footage and Daniel has begun on looking at the footage to let us know what we may need to film again. At the end of this week we plan to have finished filming all of the film. This is to take place over the weekend.
