As 'Missing' is a low-budget film the actors in it are more likely to be unknown. Nowadays films can make a lot more money if there are well-known actors in it. This is because many 'big' actors have their own fan-base, so fans will see the movie without taking the story-line into account.
In my film the main character is 'Georgia Wallace' played by Caroline Lovick. Although i believe that Caroline filled the role well if Georgia was played by some with celebrity status would have made the film more successful.
Editing
Editing for 'Missing' is very simple in comparison with a block buster movie (like the Harry Potter films).
Films like mine are very simplistic and don't need as much editing as films like Harry Potter. Although I do believe I could have made my editing more clean-cut.
A clip from the popular 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2' can be found below.
Props
As can be seen in previous blogs i used very little props in my opening and this would be the same for the full-length film. I believed that this was a good idea as it shows the lack of material goods Georgia (and general homeless people)have.
Not very many films use as little props as i did unless they're based on a similar story (like homelessness).
Story-line
Very few films have been based around homelessness and when they are they're less successful than the generic cinematic film.
The story-line of the full-length film would be a lot like 'Sliding Doors' as the life of Georgia is different depending on whether she catches a bus or not.
Time Used
The time taken to make this opening was probably a lot shorter than the time spent on other films.
