Hayley's Movie & TV Reviews — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 17:56:54 +0000

Exciting news people!!! Myself, Elliot and James have edited the first cut of the “Abertoir 2011″ promo with just a few tweaks left to do! We have been asked to present a talk to our University Placement lecture regarding our project and how it came about, followed by a rough screening of the film or one of James’s “Making Of” videos. The official screening of the film is still undecided so watch this space and until then, here are some teasers below to give an idea of what to expect!!

Outcast Productions: Abertoir 2011 Film- Day Three Info

Hayley's Movie & TV Reviews — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 18:50:43 +0000

Today’s shoot proved rewarding as we managed to film all the additional footage needed for the Abertoir Film. All the interior shots were filmed in the Aberystwyth Arts Centre (The Home of Abertoir!) featuring myself presenting an introduction to the vox pop’s we’re going to feature, the events that were held and the special guests that attended (meaning I could briefly mention my favourite film INBRED!!). Also festival director Gaz Bailey kindly allowed us to film inside the cinema which added a fitting atmosphere to my presentation. Overall everything ran smoothly and we had no seagulls to contend with unlike yesterday (result!!). Tomorrow will consist of myself, Elliot and James going through all our footage before we begin to finally put everything together for the first cut! Exciting stuff! Once more I would like to thank everyone for their support in regards to this project. Also keep an eye out for more updates on facebook and twitter as well as our group’s wordpress blog that will be coming soon….

Outcast Productions: Abertoir 2011 Film- Day Two Info

Hayley's Movie & TV Reviews — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 17:36:40 +0000

Day Two of our Abertoir project consisted of filming footage outside the Arts Centre of me presenting information circulating the Censorship debate; which occurred on the festival’s first day. The controversial screening of “The Human Centipede 2″ (2011) was also discussed. There were a few issues in regards to the shoot as we had to change our location three times, firstly due to exams taking place in the Great Hall, followed by chirping seagulls and howling winds near the steps and Hugh Owen Library. Finally we obtained our footage outside the Arts Centre bar and everything ran smoothly from there on. We have a fair bit of footage to gain by the end of the week before we begin putting it all together, which will feature information on some of the films screened, the special guests and the events that were held. James Moore is currently in the process of editing some “Making of…” footage which will be up shortly so you can see our on-set/location antics! Stay tuned as there is much more on its way!

Announced earlier on the official Facebook group and Twitter page, OutCast Productions are currently in the stages of editing and adding the finishing touches to the coverage of Wales’s only horror festival Abertoir. An introduction scene was filmed today as well as some establishing shots of Aberystwyth town. Filming was enjoyable and productive despite the cold weather, with a relaxed atmosphere on location. Below are some stills of today’s progress and a making of video will shortly. Thank you to everyone who has supported this film and us as a production group, we hope you will enjoy the final product.
