Evaluation

My initial idea was to create a make up adverts advertising different brands of make up I originally wanted to film it in T42. I was planing on creating a cat walk in T42 and have Rosanna dress up and walk down the cat walk and advertise a make up product. After I had filmed the make up product I was going to create the other half of the advert as a spoof to show what affect make up can have on people today. I was planning on showing the good and bad side of make up and how products are made out to make you look flawless but you very rarely get what you buy. I was going to use green screen so change the background in the editing suit, I was planning on editing a catwalk entrance into the background. I would have found an image of google images to edit in and use. I struggled to film this because of the set up and my actors weren't in on the days I needed them. Instead of filming a advert last minuet I changed my idea and decided to film a selection on video vox pops. I filmed 8 people sharing their opinion on make up, I received both good and bad opinions which were all very good point. I did struggle at first to get volunteers for my video vox pops as a lot of people were camera shy, this did waste a lot of my time but luckily last minuet a couple of people offered to help. I filmed in T45, I still used the green screen so I could edit a different background in. I also used a light because the lighting in the room was very dull and I thought it would of had an effect on the final project. I placed a chair in front of the green screen and each person interviewed had to sit there and share their opinion whilst being filmed. When I uploaded all my footage I found I had to re film the first two vox pops because the tape that I used was faulty and was causing both faces to combine as well as their voices. I was unable to use T45 to re film so I used T42 instead but it made no difference, after all filming was complete I imported all my footage onto a computer in the editing suit and edited my footage. the editing went really well but I had to have assistance because I had never used the software before so I had to be taught how to use it. The only problems I had with the editing was the faces kept being pixelised so they were blending in with the background image. To fix this I just had to play around with the setting on the background image and this then made the faced look normal again. I think to improve my idea next time I should attempts to get more volunteers for more solid and better opinions. Overall although I had to change my idea I feel I still got some form of message across about make up and I still managed to show that there are both good and bad effects of make up.
