Important changes that were made due to feedback:
As soon as the film begins there is no ident, it looks as if there is no official starting point, due to this feedback we added an ident with our brand name 'cherbub productions' so it follows the conventional sarting point of a short film; as well as looking more professional this way.
The soundtrack that accompanies the rough cut is conventional of a supernatural thriller; but our soundtrack promoted an uneasy feel right from the start, when the scenes seem quit happy. We decided to change this and add more uplifting sounds to accomopany these types of scenes.
Changes were also made to the sound effects, becaue of the criticism we received. At reference point 1:50- 2:00 Gregg disappeares from the window in this scene, our peers pointed out that the sound effect that accompanied this did not have the right impact. We chnged this so the audience received the correct feel for when Gregg is around. We created him a leit motif, the new sound effects are far more compatible and our audience they appreciated the scenes more.
The scenes of Charlottes death show her in a close up shot time reference point 3:30- 3:35, In this frame she is taking a photograph as she dies. This part of the plot is important yet our peers described it as not completely apparent. To make the scene easy to understand we added a sound effect to make it clearer that a photograph was being taken. Also we used a special effect on screen of a whit slug; this was used so that it looked as if a flash photograph was being taken. All of this helped to make the audience follow the plot, as the scenes worked much better this way.
