Golliwog - First Draft


This is our first draft of our production of Golliwog. Whilst on the editing software, we did not notice many issues with the production. Once published however, we quickly noticed the audio was too quiet and couldn't be heard on phones when on max volume. This is something we have improved in the finished production so that the audio volume is at a good level if on a middle volume, so that it can be adjusted to be made quieter or louder when watching the short film at home.

Another issue we came across was the order of our scenes. After showing our work to family and friends, we got feedback as how we could move a few scenes around to give them more importance and give a better impact of each scene. We will move the scenes so that the narrative fits better. We will also add flashes of the golliwog during a conversation between the brothers as the angry younger brother played by Rory smiled a few times. By flashing the golliwog a few times throughout the scene when he smiles, it should keep the audience from seeing him laughing and continue to portray his anger.

By moving the scenes around, we will have to move the audio around too so that the music fits with the scenes and the timings of cuts etc. This will take some time and is likely to be the most time consuming improvement we will have to make as the music gives such a large impression on the production and can really change the meaning of a scene, making the audience think a certain way.
