Important Decisions Made By SCAR Productions

As a group, after reading our rough cut feedback, we have decided that due to the poor quality and missing scenes in our film, we are going to re-film our entire film. We feel that this is the best option in order to gain better marks and achieve our full potential.

We will need to re-think our idea a little as it doesn't really make sense as a whole. To overcome this issue we have decided to remove the second male, who was supposed to be aborted and conceived via the rape. We have removed this character because he looked like he wasn't meant to be there, we wanted our film to make sense, and also felt that this character didn't add much to the plot.

We have also removed the scene on the park and the nursery rhyme. We have decided to take this out as it also didn't make sense and confused the audience who we asked to watch our film and give further feedback. Although we felt that on a symbolic level this scene alluded to the sense on innocence and it being taken away, we felt the risk of confusing our viewers by including it was far greater than the symbolic benefits of including it.

We will also be improving our titles as we feel that they do not tell the viewer enough about our film before it begins. We also think that the effect on them means they take alot of time to develop and this means that we would have to hold the text for longer, whereas the titles we have looked at are short, snappy and to the point.

These are all of the changes we have come up with so far regarding our final film. Any others we decide on will be in the posts that are to follow.
