Rough cuts

CARVED (first shoot):


Feedback:
  • Floating blue light, smudge, crop out/be careful of
  • Two titles one font, next two different font (for testing) can be screenshots
  • Animation of fonts, horror, key frames
  • Titles -> director first
  • Upper case + lower case
  • Add an ident + voice over and images for context
  • Ambient sound, cars, no dead air
  • Signify falseness in EMMA, puts on glasses for phone call
  • Delay showing EMMA, more use of mis-en-scene 
  • Even more mis-en-scene
  • Change country “Italy” is blurred
  • Pan up to Emma after knife
  • Long takes, need reaction shots (knock)
  • No paint in coming back to same shot
  • Candles = shadows
  • Panic needs to continue, continuous banging/cross-cutting
  • Longer take = less convincing
  • Lots of shots for panic sequence 
  • Lamp for entrance
  • Hinting someone is outside 
  • EMMA looks around frantically/curtains down
  • Panting after looking around (OLIVIA)
  • Don’t have a dictionary 
  • Avoid foreign book
  • Too minimal dirt on her face
  • Makeup on camera, testing (w/o cast)
  • Start kettle way earlier
  • Lighter dress for more dirt
  • Show OLIVIA after murder
  • Cut from shoe to back to shoe
  • No diegetic titles, animated maybe 
  • Maybe reveal motive in escape sequence
  • Get footage for lighting and makeup
  • Radio instead of phone call
