This third draft was manly changes that Dom suggested during out tutorial. I went and adapted the sequences to create a better pacing throughout the entire film. As Dom suggested cutting down the beginning as there was a lot of unnecessary shot that although they looked nice meant nothing to the narrative so these got cut down or out entirely. As the editing was done on my Mac the footage, up till this point, was still the footage that I copied of Ed, this meant it wasn't very good quality. So I went through and replaced it with the higher quality footage I had from when we uploaded the initial footage.
Once we had agree that this new pacing work I went through and colour corrected it making the colours in the sequences more contrasting. I really liked this as all the greens and brown from the trees, grass and leaves look more vibrant. I watched a short film called 'Colour Bleed' by Peter Szewczyk and really like the use of colour and how he has managed to portray emotions through the use of dull, eery settings agains vibrant colours of the girls hair and cloths. As ours has such vibrant colours with the greens and brown the white plastic bag stands out that much more. This is good as we was trying to make a point that a man made plastic bag doesn't fit in with all the natural beauty of the peak district.
This is the last Draft that we have done before we submit it, the only things I change is the titles slightly but other then that this is our finished piece. Both Ed and I are really pleased with how its turned out as wasn't sure whether our storyline would be clear but I think we have managed to portray it in a very understandable manner while still capturing creative and artistic shots with the use of depth of field and rack focus.
