Oblivious 4th Draft

Here is our 4th cut of Oblivious, which we are fairly confident that this draft is nearly ready to be our final piece. The threat video and the assembling of the bomb is final, however the scene in school isn't final as of yet. This is because most things that need to be improved on have been, such as some camera work and framing. The 3rd draft isn't on my blog yet unfortunately, but it will be up soon.



The main differences between the 3rd draft and our final 4th cut is that the credits for our group members has now been edited it within the video. As you can see, credits are now inserted at the 26 second mark, 47 second mark, 51 seconds, 58 seconds, 1min 04 seconds, 1min 13 seconds, and lastly 1min 49 seconds. We have used the same font throughout this credit process to try and ensure a consistent, regular pattern. The credits are simple and just say who has performed each role of the making of the film.



Another main difference in this final draft is that we have altered the school scene a bit. After some questioning as to why the pan shot of Joseph walking to his classroom door was there, and that his head got cut out of the frame, we took this shot out. Instead we cut straight to Joseph opening the class door, with the shot before this picking up the bomb. We felt these two shots being right next to each other was more effective; as it shows one side of his life dealing with explosives and terror, and then the other side of his life in school and pretending to be someone he's not, as the shots are right next to each other.



Also, in the school part of the scene we have added some ambient, atmospheric horror related music. The idea of this was to add a sense of dread whilst in the school scene, as the scene is building up to what would be a very significant scene it the video was continued.
