On my blog, I have posted three evaluation videos, two of which are just Parts 1 and 2 and the other being a full length of part 1 and 2. The video posted before this is the same video (just to make sure!) 'Part 1' and 'Part 2' videos are just a split version of 'Final Evalution' video below them (with Pavarotti on the front). Part 1 and 2 were imbedded onto my blog from Youtube incase Blogger wouldn't allow viewing of the full length video (as it wouldn't this morning) and I have left the Blogger uploaded video there incase Youtube videos fail. I hope it will all be viewable now but just letting you know that 'Final Evaluation' is the full length video if I were to put 'Part 1' and 'Part 2' together!
Thanks. Jess Venner. :)

Final Evaluation - Part 1
This is part 1 of my evaluation for 'The Misogynist'. I had to split them as I was having a bit of trouble with uploading.

Storyboard for evaluation video
I went through my notes, had a look at the trailer and concluded the script on the previous post and then wrote this storyboard.
1. Me telling audience 'welcome' - the intro
2. Directors commentary
3. Me again - overview of how I challenged and conformed
4. Talking over a table overview of this
5. Say next question. Answer. 'I thought it was...', 'I wanted to...'
6. Bring in pictures of each one (magazine, trailer screenshot, poster). Explain each individually of how they helped each other.
7. Audience feedback. Ask someone next to me a question and demonstrate method.
8. Show figures on screen in tables or graphs and elaborate.
9. Show changes on screen due to audience feedback. 'Without audience feedback, I would not have done...'
10. Technologies. Photo's of film set from folder 'Random and media'. 'Here's me using...', 'This is a... It had the purpose of...'
11. Thanks for watching.
Throughout use unedited clips taken when filming that were either used or not used as evidence of process and to back up points made by me in the evaluation.

Plan for the evaluation - The Script so far.
Hi, I’m Jessica Venner and welcome to my evaluation of The Misogynist, the trailer, poster and magazine cover. Here is my director’s commentary.
This is my friend Hayley, an actress. I used a woman as I knew that that was a typical convention of horror films. The protaganist. I used a moonlight overhead lighting system to give the effect of moonlight, with the lamp on and hence the feeling of night time.
I created the facebook page with a print screen of facebook front page and an edited version of that with the picture of her dead onto it. I then put it on slideshow and filmed it. I thought this would give an element of surprise, a bit of fantasy and a creepy air of a future murder being taken a picture of and posted on a popular social networking site.
I conformed with this institution logo as they were found to be the most likely to be with a film like mine.
I originally had a simple story with different murder events but decided to then integrate these clips, like this photo one, into the film, flickering. I thought this was different and would give those horrible subliminal messages to the audience of murder, stalking and lots of women being killed.
I had her getting in the bath because she would be vulnerable there. The idea was influenced by the film Psycho with the famous shower scene. The bloody hand going down the wall in another subliminal message was also influenced by this film.
I got the misogynist going past the mirror in a black cloak, a very typical image of a murderer. I sort of wanted to add an element of irony to the film where murderers are often stereotyped to wear cloaks and hats to mask their identity.
Candles around the bath and again the moonlight light was used to give the impression of night and a relaxed atmosphere. The audience would know better obviously.
The phone ringing was is becoming a convention of todays modern horror films. Following her answering the call, I wanted an unexpected event. I thought the bleeding tap was challenging to what people may have seen before.
Again with the conventions of horror films, I wanted to introduce more irony and poke a little fun at the graveyard cliche. I wanted it spooky in my film and so used smoke spray and moonlight lighting again. I was conforming to the convention of having a graveyard with a dead person in it, but at the same time challenging the idea as being so very predictable.
Throughout the trailer I didnt have an overhead voice as is very typical of trailers, both teaser and theatrical. I wanted to use only one part with an overhead to challenge this convention. It would also be my tagline and by having it the only thing said overhead, it would be more memorable.
I knew the knife dropping in a slow-mo effect would make it more dramatic. A memorable last clip for the trailer.
