Post Production Blog: Concept and Music Changes

 After evaluating my 1st draft, I found a few changes that I needed to make both to my concept and to my film itself. The "concept change" that I am referring to involves two of my characters. While my original concept was to have the little girl be at the beach with her parents, I have since realized, as previously mentioned, that this does not look realistic. My actors are people my age and it is not very believable that they are her parents. I am changing those characters to her "siblings" and maintaining that the brother is responsible for the kidnapping and bad. Same concept, just instead of mom and dad they are her brother and sister.

Another change that I made to the  content of the film was adding two scenes at the end which show the little girl being held hostage. I felt like this helped develop the "kidnapping" plot.

One of the most significant issues in my movie was the background music aspect. Originally,  I had struggled to upload  the background music into Premiere Pro and ended up recording it via my phone. Due to this, the music was  low quality. I worked through the features some more and ended up finding  two different sounds off of royalty free sites including, "bensound.com".  I feel

far  more confident about  my film and I feel as though the  new  sounds that I have picked better match with the moods that  I  am trying  to convey.
