Police sirens

I converted this siren.

I think this one is good because it sounds echoy, so more naturalistic...
Is it ok?

DON'T FORGET

We HAVE to mention somewhere in the trailer that the film has a 15 certificate DONE

The Final Stages

I'm not sure if this is all we have left to do or if I've missed something out. If it is all we have left, can we please stick to this plan so we can be efficient and finally get it done.

1. Take a picture of Roman and Slick DONE
2. Add to the voice over DONE
3. Film the newspaper article bit, capture it and edit it in DONE
4. Re-record Dianne's dialogue DONE
5. Convert the siren sounds DONE
6. Add the sound effects that have been converted DONE

I know we want Kalbir to help us with after effects but I don't want to be a burden on him so unless he definitely has the time, we should just leave it.

Voice over re-recordings

We need to re-record the voice-overs. The main ones are:

My name is Roman and my night had a thousand lies

A couple of years ago, something bad happened

It stared off with a simple phonecall

My Night Has A Thousand Lies

His wife's the only one for him

The Night Has A Thousand Lies

Response to Roman's Introduction

Erm I think it would be too long if we said the stuff about age and job, it's not necessary. We just need to make the audience aware that I'm the protagonist etc. Maybe at the end or something he could say:
My names Roman and My Night Had A Thousand Lies ?

Or we could stick to your idea Bianca and perhaps just shorten it a little.

Suggestions for introducing Roman as the protagonist

We all agree that we need to introduce Roman as the protagonist, right?

But you don't want to introduce him like we have done for the characters, right?

So what if he starts off the voice over something on the lines of this:

My name is Roman
I am 25 years old, and I'm a wealthy accountant (or business man)
A couple of years ago, something bad happened,
let me take you back
It started off with a phone call

My only concern is that it will be too long? But his voice over actually intoducing himself is the only other way of introducing the voicer over as the protagonist, but it dosent nessicarly introduce Bilaal's character as also the protagonist...

Unless while that is said, pictures of his life before "The event" was shown like stills- with dianne? (Apparently something similar happens at the begining of Up if ou've seen it) This would also show it's his wife. But if we did do this, we would have to cut down somewhere else in the trailer which is guess is do-able but more effort. and plus we would have to TAKE the pictures too. And we'd have to get Lagsan to record it too...

What do you think?
