Codes and Conventions within my Short Film

Codes and conventions from J_Scott01

THE LOOP (2018) | Outtakes

A compilation of a variety of outtakes extracted from the raw footage of my short film, this demonstrates the difficulties involved in filming a good take and offers some humorous moments. (Notice the grain that is present within the raw footage of the Time Machine scenes which was later removed in the final cut within After Effects).

This is the audio commentary of my short film, presented by myself as I am joined by my co-star in discussing what went on in the creation process behind the scenes.

Sound Reference Sheet

This sound reference sheet catalogs every use of a sound effect during post-production in the same respect as the previously analysed music.

Music Reference Sheet

Contains precise information concerning every music piece used within the film; such as the appropriate time stamps, genres and titles of each piece.

Special Effects

Regarding special effects within my film, Araveb is a primary example of this due to his prominence throughout the film. He requires multiple simultaneous effects to be applied to him, including chroma key as well as opacity, colour and lighting adjustments which will be carried out using editing software. Effects will be applied for the time machine crash scene which will include an overlay of smoke and also screen shake to simulate the capsule crashing. Most of the effects are carried out in the second scene, being set in the mysterious woods. These more advanced effects will be carried out in After Effects rather than the standard Premiere Pro editing software due to their complex nature. Examples of such primarily include the "Time Distortion" effects that occur throughout the film, varying from screen distortions to physical lights and other elements that will be present throughout and tracked when necessary.
