Our rough cut and the feedback that we have received from it.

From our initial screening we have received some really useful feedback. One of the main issues is to decide what will come before the 'two months earlier' as this makes the storyline slightly unclear at the moment. We think that some snappy and short shots of the main character washing blood off a knife would look effective. Another issue was framing and how we need to think about it a little more when filming some of the shots, particularly in the sections with the antagonist, where there was an issue of him laughing that we need to re-film. Some of these shots also appeared a little shaky so we must be careful and use a tripod at all times unless we are aiming for a shaky, disjointed effect. Another important issue was that we broke the 180 degree rule, so when we are re-filming these shots we must be wary not to do that again. One issue that people commonly raised was if the title sounds too American than British, so we are deciding whether to change the title to a more British one and what this could be. I think that something like 'Knife Point' would work well instead. We also were told that the main protagonist’s costume looked a little ill-suited so we have been considering on how to change this also. On the plus side, we received positive feedback on our self-composed music as it works really well with the opening.
