How We Improved Our Movie

When we began editing initially, we discovered that some of our shots were too bright or not long enough, or in some cases, too dark. We then re-shot everything to improve, but there were obviously still things that had to be edited in order to be made use-able. 

For some of the bedroom scenes, when shooting, we didn't want to risk making the shots too dark, so we used a top light to brighten them up, then in order to make it fitting with the scene, we made some of the shots darker. We also used effects such as slow motion and fades. This was due to the fact that we did not have enough footage for specific areas, so had to use slow motion to fill time and make it more effective, and use a fade to represent a jump in time. 

One piece of advise a teacher gave us that we did not do anything about was when we were told that our movie could be potentially woman hating due to the storyline of a girl sleeping with several boys and being hated for it. We did take this comment on board, but could not change or improve it as it would have ruined the storyline and meant we could no longer use this idea for a film.
