production review
our production is a trailer and about a girl (naziya) who is best friends with hammad and falls for womaniser, Hassan. in the end she realises hammad was the one for her. the trailer does not give too much of the film away as it creates enigmas which will encourage the audience to watch the film.

filming was fun because we got to experiment with different angles and shots. it was also fun because we could enjoy ourselves at the same time.

the editing process was interesting because it was the first time we edited. once we got the hang of it it was much easier and quicker to do.

overall, it was enjoyable making this production because we worked together well as a group, which is important.

Facts...
Naziya was wearing her jeans under her sari!
i wonder where naziya got dressed into her sari????

PrOduCtIoN rEViEw
well our practical productions done it was hard work.
basically its about a girl ( naziya) our female prtagonist character who falls for hassan a 'player' in the mean time her best friend hammad is falling in love with her. the trailers purpose is too inform the audience of a new film and of a basic narrative, this trailer does not give too much off the narrative away yet still creates engimas which will keep the audience guessing to know more about the film and will want to watch the film. so the trailer does fulfil its purpose.

at first editing was hard to get the hang off but eventually we worked at it and became well good at it.
well the whole editing process took ages because at first we never had a storyboard but once we made one it was all good, and it helps.

filming was also something you had to get the hang off. i wasnt very good at filming. i think both editing and filming was time consuming and we could have prepared better.

overall it was really fun working in a group off fun people. we all worked together to produce an amazing production which we are proud off.

Production Review

Finally, our production is completed and has been put on to cd so that we can watch our trailer all the time which I know that the rest of my group do every night lol. Below is a review of our production, which include some funny things that happened during the course of our production.

'Kabhi Socha Na Tha' is a Bollywood trailer which we have produced. It is of a particular genre which is associated with Bollywood films and is a romance- a love triangle. Naziya who plays our heroin is torn between her best friend Hammad and a boy she falls in love with who is played by Hassan-in his flash car!!! The trailer raises many enigmas and fulfills its purpose to persuade an audience to go and watch the film.

Above was a quick summary of the storyline and purpose of the trailer, however now I will include some interesting facts about the trailer:
- During the scene with Naziya dancing her sari was getting really dirty and poor girl was really getting worried. As a solution we thought of taking it to the dry cleaner before her mum finds out. The best thing was that Anjali was recording Kiran messing about whilst Naziya was getting slightly annoyed!!!!
- For the high angle shot I know we shouldn't have but we lifted up the whole tripod on top of our heads and captured the shot-thank god the camera didn't fall.
- The most funniest thing which we did or should i say didn't. It was our first day of filming so we had everything ready to go when we noticed the camera was not recording we thought it was the battery so we called Zainab and asked her to bring her battery all the ways from her house- and it was very early poor girl. Well we also found out whilst me and Anjali went to get some drinks that the tape was not even in the camera whoooopss!!!
- One other thing when everyone was well in to editing stages we were still filming. We told Mr Bush about 2mins later we had Mr Munro on our case. So at that stage they were thinking 'These girls are not going to pull it off' As always we did and they were impressed which they should be after having no faith in us!!!!!

Well thats it I will let the others tell you some more stories. I hope everyone liked our trailer and thank you to Naziya, Hassan and Hammad. Even though there were times when the trailer was not looking good, I enjoyed making it with my group.

Final Report !

WOW... we have actually finished our bollywood trailer... well we have had many highs and low... actually alot of lows but we all came together at the end to produce a really good bollywood trailer, which actually looks like one.

We had started of all confused not really knowing where to go with our idea and our cast...lol...then later on we actually started filming! with countless issues over when to film and what to film of course.

Then we realised we never really made a storyboard for our trailer, which we should have really done in the planning process, but still we actually got a narrative out our footage, which really does make sense!

Anyway aswell as the countless problems we also all had a great time with the it, with some memorable moments and a great few months.

Well...yesterday we finally finished all the editing.. right after Kiran and Neeelema decided to return from their little trip... it was a HUGE relief !

So after all the stress this production caused us all, we finally got a good result and hopefully it will be worth the grade!

PrOgReSs RePoRt!!

Helllo!
well we have almost finished our trailer, its our last week of editing and we just got to add the finishing touches YH!!

mr bush and mr munro had a look at it and they are pleased with the work which is really good to hear as we needed those positive comments and critism to help us make our trailer the best. mr bush gave us a whole bunch of advice and tips to work on for our trailer and we got on that as soon as possible. he aslo mentioned we had to change the title of our name becasue it was too common.

woah! me and baldip had i first disagreement it wasn't serious though and she won :( lol but it was about having our titles in capitals or not, i wanted them to be in capitals but she didn't. it was funny has we had to call other media students to help us decide (thanks neema) lol!
