Research and Planning - 13
Planning and research is complete and there is much evidence
of hard work throughout the process. There is proficient work into similar
products, with detailed analysis, and there is some attempt to research potential
target audiences. However this isn’t
very wide ranging and there is room for more research into demographics etc. There
is reasonable work into organisation of actors and locations, but little
thought of costumes or props. There is proficient work on scripts, storyboards
etc, however some of these obviously changed and this isn’t reflected on the
blog. Overall the presentation is excellent and time management was reasonable.
Main Task – 40
The titles follow conventions and show a proficient use of
appropriate fonts and technology. The material is appropriate for the task and
is clearly a film opening; however I would have liked to see much more dialogue
and development of the character throughout. Overall there are some proficient
elements of sound build up, but there are one or two problems, notably with the
hissing around the dialogue that isn’t faded in and out, this should have been
re-recorded with a better microphone which was available to use. There isn’t a
great variety of shot types, but there are a reasonable amount and some good
camera movements. There is some attention to mise-en-scene and editing is
proficient, conveying meaning to the viewer. The dark shots are too dark and to
mean the audience may struggle to see what is happening and the door should
slam at the end. However overall this is a proficient film opening.
