About to upload

Me and Flossi are currently rendering our 'movie' so that it can be uploaded so I thought I would use this time to reflect on our current project.

I'll start with how we came up with the idea for the theme of the movie. We wanted to create something a bit different from other media projects, opting for a comedy - like genre that was a bit fun. We knew that this would be difficult as it required research into a genre we'd never really focused on before. Given the time we had I feel the script was done to a decent standard, but I do believe that if we were to continue this idea into a final piece more consideration for it would be taken.

The idea itself was 'Science Boys', a film based around two science minded teenage boys who find themself in unexpected situations, we tried to give this a comedic twist. After the successes of 'The Big Bang Theory' and 'The Inbetweeners', we thought that the concept of our idea was good and would be recieved by an already established audience.

We cast someone who we had used before in our film as we found from our previous film that he took direction well and may be suited to the character we were trying to portray. Unfortunately when I looked over the film it seems obvious to me that the time restraints we had meant we couldnt quite get the shots or dialogue just as we had hoped.

Music wise we chose an Indie band the Arctic Monkeys as it fitted with you age group and target audience we would try and market our film to.

My overall feeling about the film is that it is a good start if we were to continue the idea and there are some flaws that we could change for the future.
