Post-Production

Your browser does not support the audio element. Play Welcome to the Post-production! 👻 🎃 👻 ☠️ 🎃 Editing Software used For my the post-production, I preferred capcut over premiere pro or after effects. It is because capcut is easy to use and has most of the effects and techniques available to use which would suffice for my film.  Opening scene I started with a fade out effect by adding keyframes at the start of the video so the start of the film would be smooth as it also complimants the soundtrack.  Furthermore, I added the text to reveal the name of my film...    The font I used for the title is "Larken" which was quite plain and simple. I did this because the name of the film itself  contains the word "Manuscript" and the font would now  give off a script-like feel that will matche that theme. For the word "Unfiinished" I used a seperate font as I needed to highlight it and wan...

Play Welcome to the Production! 👻 🎃 👻 ☠️ 🎃 ☠️ 🎃   Commencement of Project The production was schedueled for night of 1st February. As planned, the shoot was done and completed in the whole night and the editing was completed the next day. Filming and Lighting I filmed my movie with an Iphone 15 camera which has a 48 MP - 26 mm wide camera. Along with that we used a ring light to assist me as the scene had to be shot in the dark and it made my face clear. Also, the first shot I took, was not of the place I usually live. I captured that establishing shot some time ago when I went on a trip and that matched my film's ambience so I added it there. Most of lighting the film was lowkey to give a gloomy effect, but I also used chiaroscuro lighting at places too. Acting I was the protagonist as well...

Play Welcome to the pre-production! 👻 👻 👻 One liner An author writing a manuscript is unable to complete it due to unfavorable supernatural circumstances... However, the script isn't left unfinished - as some other entity does it for him! Name suggestions As the story was based on a horror genre, the name had to be something spooky. I thought of multiple names such as "The last words" or "Tip-toed to death". However, these seemed to be too monotonous so I decided to choose a title which would have a word that engages the audience. After much consideration, I ended up on: The unfinished manuscript This suggested the audience that a manuscript was being written which is left "Unfinished". The word "Unfinished" particularly catches the eye of everyone and I've also decided to differentiate it by using a unique font.  Screenplay S...
