Changes

Whilst we were doing the specific finishing touches on our editing we decided that the ending of our opening sequence didn't flow well enough into what would be the main film. The writer drinking out of the mug was, described in our audience feedback as a bit of an anti climax.

After a group discussion we came to the descission that we needed to film another short scene. We initially thought about doing an extra shot of our model walking down the street from her photoshoot, however because of bad weather conditions and prior commitments we could not film her. Furthermore we didn't want to keep switching consistantly between her and his world as we felt this looked ammature. We finally came to the conclusion of filming our Writer coming out of his house. With this shot  we wanted to create an elipses. We will do this predominently by a change of clothes.

A common convention of Rom-Coms is to vary the source of the music, often this is done by switching between diegetic and non diegetic. When our Writer is walking out of his house the music from the previous shot (Bright Soul) will create a sound bridge. The music at the begining of our new shot will be non diegetic however it will switch to diegetic as the he takes his head phones out of his ears. When he does so- the music (now diegetic) will be quiter and more muted to ensure that the audience recognises that it is coming from his head phones.
