After the first viewing we seem to be ahead of most people with a complete rough cut, sound included, but there are still lots of amendments to be made. Some of the major points were:
· Narrative issues and confusion through minimal dialogue
· Confusion over identity of Heather
· Why doesn’t Allison pick the papers up if they are so important?
· Screen flickers during the final scene
· Relevance of photograph unclear
· Radio sound bridge short and unclear
· Title slide amateurish and slow
· Volume issues
Although I intend to amend most of these problems I don’t see what I can do about narrative issues, there is reasoning behind Allison leaving the files and the age difference between Allison and Heather but it’s hard to see how we can explain this without shooting the entire film. We only have two minutes after all.
I am keen however to fix sound and editing issues something I believe I should be able to do quite easily. I also plan to film a couple of additional shots of the screen sans flickering and try a different photograph hopefully with a younger Katie in it.
