Group Meeting

Today we sat down and discussed possible issues with our film. We watched the film over several times and found that we need to include:

1) Titles: "Productions presents" etc. before film with titles on black screen as opposed to superimposing because of fragmented story-line.

2) The narrative is non-linear which made ordering the clips in a coherent order slightly challenging. We found that including office shots amongst Rupert's visions would sustain the continuity.

3) Substitute the zoom of the name tag outside the office with a still shot (shot 3/4).

4) The framing in shot 7 is awkward- we need to film this scene again with the camera placed centrally during shots of Rupert and Dr. J. Smith in the same frame. 

5) Remove the second checklist shot, one is enough for the audience to understand the doctor's hidden agenda.

6) We should incorporate more dialogue in the office scenes to emphasise moments of disorientation from Rupert and instigation from the doctor. For example, Rupert should ask more questions like "why me?", "who is she?", "what's going on?" etc. meanwhile Dr. J. Smith should urge him to approach her: "why don't you approach her and see if she knows you?".

7) Perhaps include the photo briefly in the scene. We could include this in a close up shot of Dr. J. Smith placing a pen on the desk next to the photo frame.
