Possible Difficulties When Producing Our film

Throughout the production of our film, we are bound too face some barriers that may slow down production, or require us too change some of our treatment. I will discuss these potential barriers and talk about how we might combat the barriers.

• As he is flicking through the photo album, we need too make it look authentic when it fades from the photo too the scene related too the photo. The fade might look messy. To tackle this problem we will take our time in using these fades too get them just right.
• We will have too angle our shots just right when doing the cliff scene, so that you cannot see that he is not sitting on the steep part of the drop, as we are using the less steep part so that we can do the jump effectively. 
• We will have too make the jump look realistic, as he cannot actually jump off the cliff. So we are going too either film him jumping off the smaller part, we will have too judge the camera shot too see if it looks realistic, or we will film him running towards it, and maybe film a manequin being thrown off, from a very large distance away, then maybe him at the bottom. This is going too be one of the biggest difficulties in producing our film, but we will find a way too solve it. 
• It will be hard too show the girl walking towards him as he runs off, because we are going too try do it as a point of view shot of him falling, we could probably make this look authetic by walking backwards down the steep part, or standing further away from the edge than it actually looks and fall backwards. 

After writing the treatment, and discussing these difficulties. We are going to write our script and storyboard so we can use them as tools to aid us while producing our film. 

Final Treatment

on the edge of love

This is our final treatment, i have implemented the few changes i mentioned last post and our treatment will now no longer be edited. We will now look at whether this story will actually work, and potential difficulties we may face when trying to film this story.

Summary of Treatment Changes

After gathering feedback from an audience, there are no major changes that we need too make too our treatment. As reading i noticed a few grammar mistakes which we will change.

The only thing we will be changing to the idea is the name of our film, as it is suggested that "on the edge for love" is too obvious, and it gives away a lot of our film, so we have decided too change too "on the edge of love" As it gives away less of the plot too our film.

Audience Questionnaire (Target Audience and Conventions)

We gave the audience a questionnaire too see if they could figure out the target audience and conventions we have used purely from our treatment. This is too test if our treatment is giving a clear enough representation of our film.

Reading of treatment with Peer Feedback

We read our treatment out too our class and asked them for any feedback they felt necessary too our treatment.

Draft Treatment

A treatment is a piece of pose, that sets the story for a film. Film makers use this so they know their story all the way through, and it is not just merely an idea, but a full document of text explaining what is going to happen. This is usually done just before the script and storyboard that comply with this treatment are produced.

On the Edge for Love


This is the Draft Treatment for our 5 minute short film, we will now present it too an audience and gather feedback on how too improve it so it is up too full standard.
