Hey guys welcome back! The murder mystery, short film, we chose was called whittling away. This film features, a father, a grandmother, and a daughter. To start the scene, the daughter is shown at a deserted lake, which creates a suspenseful theme for the murder mystery. This is a great way to create engagement for the audience. The short film progress to a snippet of the girl drawing blood into the lake. The girl despaired for almost the whole duration the short film until the plot twist at the end . The use of diegetic sound creates the outside scene for the characters. Our film will also use diegetic sound to create scene. As well as no diegetic sound for our credit scene. Just like the short film party to murder, “the whittling away” there is a plot twist. This startagy is a great example of the other ways on how to execute one for our film. In the editing of this short film, it goes back-and-forth between the daughter and fathers point of view. If our group decided to do this for our film, we might take split screen into consideration, to show both characters perspectives simultaneously. Another thing we noticed. The whittling away short film does not focus enough to the build up of the mystery, for example the clues. While doing research I found that every successful murder mystery must include the clues that solve the mystery. These clues help incorporate the audience making them feel like they have a role in the plot. Our group looks forward to incorporating the suspense that the murder mystery genre has to offer. In our short film we will focus on the built up of the suspense but always watching out to not over do it, that can cause the audience to lose interest. That's all for now blog. Thank you.
