What I liked What confused me Suggestions The fade in at the beginning was a very nice touch. The suspenseful music kept me wanting to find out more. The 24 hours earlier was a smart factor to add because viewers want to know what caused the mysterious person to follow and eventually poison the girl. Showing how vigilant the killer was was executed nicely. When the poison was being mixed, it had left me confused. I didn’t know if the girl was mixing it herself or if the killer was mixing it for the girl to come back to. However, I figured the second made the most sense. Show the killer mixing the poison and have more angle variety. For example, when the main character walks through the plaza into Starbucks she could be shown from the front too. The Killer could be shown from a low angle to highlight his or hers importance/ malevolence. I really liked the music and the cuts between the two scenes. It made the plot really easy to follow and I understood what was going on.

Spiked Movie Opening

This week we edited more of the clips we filmed a few weeks ago. We are in the process of finishing up on editing these clips by cropping and organizing clips the way we want the final movie opening to look like. We have a lot of switching between different characters point of views, so we need to crop some of the clips to make them shorter in order to fit in the opening. We still have to film a few more clips for the ending of our opening, so we will be filming later this week. We still need to shoot some clips of our actresses in the dark around nighttime, so we are planning on finding a night where all of us can meet.
