Production log

28/02/2011- today Callum and Luke went out shoots practices shots for the scenes were protagonist one is travailing to the office, the practices were done at balham tube station. Luke began working on the music for the film on garage band. Gabrielle was doing interview for the actors.

03/03/2011-today Callum and Luke filmed the traveling scene of the surrounding area in balham and in the balham tube line. Callum edited the footage while Luke continued to create the music for the opening scene using garage band.

6/03/2011-today the group filmed the office scene, but due to custom complications we can not use footage.

14/03/2011-today the group re filmed office scene, location, conference room in chestnut grove school due to shaky camera work. this is due to a broken piece of equipment, after re-shoting we dissuaded to use a different location, we dissuaded to use callum's dads office which made up the end segment of the film

17/03/2011- today we filmed the beginning scene of the film at Callum's house, through we encounters problems due to the HD camera we used couldn't upload due to lack of software but also due to a broken tripod.

25/03/2011-today is the deadline for the rough edit, , me callum was the only person in my group in which cased problems due to the film being to long and some clips needed to be cut from the film, i also had a problem sinking the music to the film due to not being very good at garage band. Due to these problems i handed the film in with about 2 minuets of extra film, this will be sorted for the final edit

 29/03/2011-today we discuss re shooting the beginning scene and the killing if protagonist two, this is due to shaky camera work and missing shots. The killing scene has to be re shot due to the original shot not working and was a bad reflection of the Hitchcock film pshyco, we will be using a reference to the film the last three days.

-today it was dissuaded that we will not kill protagonist two( played by robert black) due to lack of times for re-shot but also due to the time limit the film had in place, we also dissuaded to use theatre of the mind a convention of thriller films to kill protagonist one this is part due to using thriller conventions but also due to the footage of him being killed being filled with mistakes. we recorded the sound of the struggle during the film of the begging scene.

-today we began the editing and music creation for the film, due to use dissuading to use imbedded titles such as in a text message or in a computer film which we used in the first scene, this meant we saved time in the production stage due to only having to do the film tittle (collusion) in the typography program . there were problems with the editing due to no one in the group having experience using the program final cut. we cut the video but not the sound and so had to repeat the process.

-today the callum and luke were creating music on the program garage band. creating the music we general quite easy but a long and laborious process, a problem we had was sincineing the music with the video. to help callum watched a tutorial on using garage band.

-today the dead line for the rouge edit, there were several problems, one problem was that the music we created was to short meaning it had to be extended this caused the music to be out of sync also the film was about a minute and a half too long.

- today is the final deadline, we had to cut out large sections of the film, we removed many scenes with the killer and also many of the established shot within the train station and outside. were re-did large sections of the music to resincke it with the newly edited film. the final section needing addressing is the effects used through out the film, fades, dissolves.
