The document provides an evaluation of a film production project. It summarizes the research process, pre-production planning, production, strengths and weaknesses. For production, it notes effective transitions, music, and editing though some minor mistakes. Strengths included various camera angles during recording but weaknesses was finishing past the deadline. Audience feedback praised the editing, sounds, and effective transitions. Improvements could have included adding special effects with more time as well as filming additional scenes in other locations.
2. How helpful was the research?
We done research on two separate things, we analyzed Making a murder and
Prison break. We also done a presentation on our prefered doucumtatry or film
and we analyzed and made it into a presentation. From doing that we knew what
the difference from a long shot and a extra close up was. We also analyzed the
dialogue, location and setting of what we watched. Researching made us more
aware of kind of camera angles and shots we needed.
3. How helpful/ successful was the pre-
production process?
We had a recce, storyboard, call sheet and treatment overall it all helped us as it
was important in its way, the storyboard was the most helpful one as it showed
us exactly where to go and what to record from what position so it was the most
important as we knew what we had to do. The recce was important too incase
we made mistakes or errors happened when we were recording. After finishing
all the stuff we were able to record the film without any problems as it was all
part of the plan.
4. How successful was your production?
It was scary and transition were effective, Jumping from 3rd person to 1st person
real quick, Music was really good created suspense and tension, screams were
good, good contrast and editing. 1st person cuts implying blinking for the
character. Overall it turned out great the editing and all the recording, couple
minor mistakes were the sound from the original video needed to be cut out.
5. Strengths and weaknesses
Out strengths were recording it with all sorts of nice angles including close ups
longshots and more however the problem was with editing as we did take longer
than usual. We finished the task past the deadline so our weakness would be
meeting deadlines… we worked together as a group perfectly with no arguments
or disagreements so i would say that is one strength as everyone was respectful
and open.
6. Audience feedback
Great editing and excellent sounds also transition were put in the right place. We
used various clips to make it entertaining meaning we made it long by using
clips where they would walk down the corridor, a bit pointless but effective. The
screams were used brilliantly as the music slowly faded out.
7. What improvements could you have made?
Due to the deadline being close by we had to hurry up with the editing and the
recording if we had more time we would have added special effects in most of
the clips to make it more tense and create suspense for the audience however
we did get alot done in the little time we had. Filming was done in an hour due to
shortage of time, if we had more time we could of filmed more scenes and scene
elsewhere apart from the same areas, the music/sound was good but could have
improved if we changed the sound to make it match it the scene we were on.
Apart from the minor things we created a good film overall.
