Self Feedback:
To make the special effect videos better, we need to use more props to make the scene seem realistic to the audience watching, include more layers in the background to create the atmosphere and we also need to make sure the sound fits the action and happens at the same time.

I think that another group should've focused better on there clips with the use of the camera and also they should've planned out the shots they needed and how long to keep the shots going for on screen.


Technical proposal:

Nazi win with alien tech

Nazi zombies with lightsabers and laser guns attack cities and the world to take over, but are yet to overcome a rock blocking there way to victory, a Jedi named Adam Sandler.

- The effects include.... Fake blood, Make up (Scary face) and Miniatures (Vehicles, guys falling of buildings etc.)
- These effects are needed because it is cheaper then actually getting a real sized vehicle to use, this will make the audience feel like the setting is real and they will therefore enjoy it. The make up will be used so that it creates the impression of horror and will add to all the other horror conventions, this will make the audience scared and therefore will create the impression that it is a horror film. The fake blood will add to the horror genre conventions as well and will need to be used for any fight scenes, murders and any violence within it, this will help the audience enjoy the film as it will look realistic and create a scary feeling for them as if the characters where real and where being hurt even though nothing bad will happen to them.
- The fake blood works by setting up a shot where a character has some fake blood on their face or the body part needed and the other shot will be without the blood and then when its edited the shots will be cut together so on screen it will look like it really happened in that moment.
The make up will be put on the actors before the shot is taken but will be shown on screen.
The miniatures will be smaller objects put in place for the shot and the camera will be close enough to the object so it looks like a realistic size and then fits into the scene.
- For the fake blood I will need to either buy it from a shop.
For the make up/costume I will need some face paint.
For the miniatures I will need some toy cars and other vehicles and possibly more objects that i can either find at home, college or at a shop.
- Fake blood will cost no more than £5, face paint would cost £10 at most because I would not need much of it, miniatures will not cost me much because I will be able to find what I need at home and college.
- For the camera and stage directions, I will decide them later on in the process but the camera shots will include close-ups, panning shots, over the shoulder shots and many more.
- The risks with the effects are that someone could be allergic to the face paint and i would check with them before doing it to make sure they are not, the same with fake blood and also it getting in peoples eyes.
