P1. Production Meeting 3

Thursday the 28th  of November 

During the editing, we all discovered that our arm stretching after effect was more complicated then we thought, and decided we only needed to pick up the books using telekinesis as the stretching might not look convincing enough.

When we were filming the telekinesis (which was done by someone dropping a purse), it went wrong as when the purse dropped it bounced on the ground, which looked a little odd when we reversed it. We decided instead we would move it using a meter ruler or something strong enough to lift up a book and then in After Effects mask out the ruler so it looks as if its floating
.
We need to practise the masking effect in After Effects first and re-shoot the scene using our new technique to practise it. We also need to practise the lightning bolt and teleporting, as we never got round to testing that.
So far we've tested the face changing colour by adjusting the hue and saturation, which we found successful, the arm stretching which was unsuccessful and lastly the telekinesis, which we found a way of improving.

Things we still need to test:
Electric bolt
Teleporting
New Telekinesis
Invisible student (maybe)

Assets needed for shooting:
Props: metre ruler, paperwork (with Jays room number on), key, books, backpack
Make up/costume: backpack, receptionists white shirt, black skirt and black blazer (boys in casual clothes)
CGI: Masking, Editing the opacity, changing the hue and saturation (colour), and adding an electric bolt
