This gif illustrates how in my prelim i made a very big mistake of leaving the tripod in the background of some of my shots. the gif also shows how in my film opener, although the tripod was not in use, we made sure it was not in any shots.

this compares how the lighting from my my prelim and my thriller opener differ. in my prelim the lighting is too bright for it to seem like we were filming it indoors. in my thriller opener i made sure the lighting was perfect and gave it a mysterious feel. also the mise en scene is better because in the prelim the cloths are too casual however in the opener I'm wearing a suit making it seem more exciting

in my prelim i put my titles on a black screen, however in my thriller opener i either cut to moving cars or another shot linking to our film or while the film was playing. this made our film flow better and made it look more appealing however the back screen makes it slow.

These are a bunch of 16 to 18 year olds viewing our film, this is because they are the people me target so we are getting as much feedback as possible.

Mystiko ending

At the end of the film, the head of Mystiko gets confronted by James McCarthy (Leon Blanche - the protagonist), who then injects him with a sedative and then ties him up, sits him down and then tells him everything he has been through and all the bad things he has done. James makes him transfer all the finances of Mystiko which is then given to charity. The film ends with James electrocuting the head of Mystiko to death.
