This project has been very different to anything I've tried to make before. I feel as though it has really challenged me in tasks that I have never thought to attempt before and even though they may not have ended up the way I wanted, I'm glad that I've at least had the opportunity to try out new things. The general plot for my film was to touch up on a few things, I'll start with the character of my film first. The reason as to why he wears a blue morphsuit is because I wanted it to resemble being just plain and bland, only one colour meaning only one feeling. Everything was neutral. Moving up the character to his face and his stitched mouth and the reasons for it. I wanted to symbolise how a lot of people in the modern day are too scared to say how they truly feel as they are worried about the outcome and consequences. That lead to the meaning of the cable and the monitor, I feel as though a lot of people can only speak their mind as long as theres a helping hand (i.e. The man is unable to speak due to the stitches and must communicate by displaying his thoughts and fears onto a monitor). I tried to link the thoughts and fears to modern day problems which is why I included the clip with Donald Trump as he is a very intimidating character in todays society.
With regards to the post production, I feel as though I have just been very unlucky, especially on the filming day where I had constant interruptions and in the editing stage where I had to wait for my special effects friend to get back to uni. Having said all of this, I feel as though I coped very professionally with all of my problems that I faced and produced a relatively high quality film which I am quite happy with. Obviously I am not completely pleased with it because I would have loved to have filmed more takes so I feel like the start of the film works very well and is very well paced and edited but towards the end I feel like it is very rushed and that it is very noticeable that it is rushed but other than that, I am pleased with how my film came out and if I had the chance I would love to go back to it and finish the project with as much time as possible to really make something I'm proud of.
