60 Second Short Film Evaluation
1. In my film I have included at least
3 camera movements and 2 camera angles but I haven’t included any camera shots
as I focused mainly on filming and didn’t take any pictures. I have shown awareness
of elements of mise-en-scene by using the book as as props to exaggerate the
clumsiness of the character and to add effect. I have only used non-diegetic sound because the sound in the footage wasn't very good or clear so i choose to use music throughout the film instead.
2. If I was asked to do this task
again, I would be more prepare and plan my idea more as I quickly picked an
easy idea and went along with the idea but I didn’t plan it very well. I would
think about what I’m filming and make sure I filmed it landscape instead of
portrait. Also, I would make sure I had enough footage for the time frame, even
after editing as I thought I had enough footage bot after editing it all, I didn’t
have enough. Therefore, I had to go back and film more and I didn’t think about
how I would put it together so the cuts fit together better and look more
natural as the cuts between scenes are quite obvious in my film, which doesn’t look
very professional.
I actually quite like this Ellie - you manage to create a sense of the character's emotions and I like the choice of non-diegetic music that you have used.
ReplyDeleteYou don't understand the difference between angles, shots and movements and this is clear in your evaluation - a camera shot is the type of framing used in video work and does not have to be a still image. See me for further clarification if you are still unsure about this.
My main concern with your completion of this task is that you did not really show a great sense of creativity initially. You are also too reliant on asking for help before trying to push yourself and solve problems on your own. You need to develop a much greater sense of independence and be less reliant on someone helping you.
A good effort though. Well done.
