Our preliminary task was inspired by a nail varnish (of my very own, that I purchased from H&M) with the colour named Midnight Passion. Immediately upon hearing the adjectives used for the nail varnish, we came up with the idea to base our task around a romantic comedy. The play on words in order to seduce the male actor, allowed us to build suspense as to what the midnight passion may actually entail. The close up of our female character (Nikkie Badejo-Myself) , revealed the comical side and the actual connotation of the midnight passion with the use of my seductive wink.
Overall, the preliminary task was successful. We had a variety of shots and transitions which coincided well with the underlying theme of our video. Our favourite aspect of our clip, was the match on action shot in which the viewer sees Nikkie (myself) entering through the door and soon after this, they are again shown her walking towards the male character as the door shuts. Unfortunately, we did encounter some technical difficulties in relation to framing. When shooting the shot/reverse shots during the conversations between the male and female character, we failed to block out exterior distractions such as lockers and tables that we did not want in the frame. Luckily, we were able to disguise this with a special effect which ellipsed our shots with a black border.
Due to noticing our pros and cons, we have analysed and created solutions to our framing problems. When filming our opening scene, we will ensure that before each clip we have a clear view of exactly what is in the frame. If we confirm that all frames are perfectly planned and executed, we are positive that we will produce an excellent Opening Scene.
