When it came to editing we found that we were lacking some what in footage in terms of the waking up and getting ready shots. We believed that we could add more aspects of schadenfreude within our piece so that the audience can find it even more humorous and related more to Joe's character in effect. These aspects exaggerate the unlucky day that he is having, this is the essential aspect of the piece, the fact that Joe is having the most unlucky day of his life within his dream.
We then began to think of more ways we could add these humorous aspects and exaggerate Joe's misfortune. Not only this, but we wanted to further progress a sense of identifying with the character for the audience. In this sense we wanted to not only represent Joe as unlucky, but a bit of a loser as well. The audience see a not left by Joe's mum on the fridge, wishing him good luck and that she loves him. Now the audience would like the fact that he smiles at this and slides the not in his pocket, this adds to the fact that he is a likeable character who is a bit of a 'mummy's boy'. So then we began to shoot shots such as Joe's car not starting and he has to walk to the station, his coke can fizzing up over him and finding his shoe in the fridge.
Its on his journey to work that the audience see Joe being stared at and approached by girls hiding in a park. We intend to progress with more girls being introduced into the narrative when during a date discussed by the group.
