Feedback - MGS 05/02/15

- Need to begin researching sound for film by looking at other travel based short films - copyright free sound which I can then blend into a soundscape.

> I am able to use certain parts of the audio from my recorded visuals, such as;

  1. Water,
  2. Birds,
  3. Vehicles.

                                                                                                                 

Location Photos from Wales

Above is a landscape shot taken on the Cnicht in North Wales; this is where the drone footage is taken.

Above is again taken on the Cnicht in North Wales; this image is possibly going to be used for my film poster, the plan is to have the film title - 'Seek Your Spirit' placed along the horizon line.

The two images above are taken from the summit of the Cnicht. Looking South West and North East.


The two images shown above are taken in Porthdinllaen along the Llyn Peninsula of North Wales; I did not film too much here as the natural lighting was not great and due to this I could not get many decent shots.


Two images of Criccieth beach, this is where, or around where most of my filming took place; sunrise, the beach and elements of nature such as shrubbery and animals will be prominent in these shots.

With all of these images I will be able to compile a small digital storyboard, alongside this I will show the text that will be spoken in the overlay with each shot.
