Significant props used

We used these props within our short film. Alex got them from her grandfather who was amazing help when we needed authentic props. It wasn't necessary for us to get 'authentic' items however we thought it created a real element to the film. These pictures below are actually of Alex's grandfather in the artillery. It's amazing looking and working with these items, feels like we're actually working with history. Makes what we're making seem more important.

What I need to do to round this off.

When I was looking at this as a JPEG then on Photoshop, I realised I need to re-align everything so they are perfect and centred or in my case actually in line with each other. I'm not sure about the name 'George Morrison'. I feel like it should be slightly smaller but I showed this to 5 members of my class and one said they didn't like it where as the other four who were sitting close by suggested that I should keep it because it makes the title stand out.


- The stars need to be repositioned so they're together
- The font might have to change at the bottom of the page so it looks more like a movie poster. If not, it looks lovely (just me being picky)
- The 'in cinemas june' must be in line with the central images and the promoters at the bottom of the page. 
- when I put the rules back on I'll make sure that the promoters/companies are in line
- The lines on the poster / on the actors could be slightly blurred so they don't look so harsh.

Mistakes



During the course of our filming, we've edited along the way slipping clips into little places to eventually make up 'War Bound'. The problem we have encountered a few times is that some of the shots we would have loved to have used weren't ideal and had to cut them out. Above this is a small video with 'Shot 1' onwards on it. I will reference the video and explain why they weren't suitable for the film.
