U

The specifications and guidelines for a U film are:

Although it is hard to predict what a child could find upsetting in a film, a U should be suitable for any audience to watch alone. The film should carry a moral, and any violence or upset should be counterbalanced and resolved.

PG

The specifications and guidelines of a PG film are:

General viewing, but some scenes may be unsuitable for young children.
Unaccompanied children may watch a PG film without supervision from adults, children above the age of 8 should have no problem with the content of the film. However for children younger parents are advised to check if the film is suitable for their children.

2nd day of editing

We did the title and credits this lesson. We worked out who had done what in the sequence and then made the text scroll. We then decided as a group on the title 'The Pursuit' and put this into the film. We worked on the GarageBand soundtrack, but found this difficult without having the movie in GarageBand too, because the timings were hard to get. So once the sequence had been editing we exported it into GarageBand, and the music became much easier to get in time with the movie.

1st day of editing

We uploaded our footage onto Final Cut Express, and started cutting out all the scenes we didn't need. We would watch them all and then decide what the best one to use was. We then decided to plan what visual effects we would use, and how the shots would play together. We thought the moped in our sequence looked too slow so we edited it, to make it faster.

2nd day of filming

Today we had all the rooms back that we needed to film in, which meant we managed to finish our filming. We did the shots inside, and made sure we got more than we needed so we were able to pick the best one and would have plenty of shots incase we couldn't use the room again and needed to continue filming. We then shot the outside shots, and worked fast because the weather looked like it was going to rain soon and this would ruin our film.
