2. THINGS THAT WORKED WELL
• Wide shot of text on bridge
• Really sets the scene with the vocalised acting in the opening doesn’t feel like an
advert
• The singing of the main actress (Hold back the river)
• Shot reverse shot on bridge
• The ‘out of bed’ and ‘ eye-opening’ shots looked professional
• Good variation of shots
• Typing credits looked professional
• Good pacing in the edit
• The juvenile font really goes with the theme,
• Powerful narrative that tackles modern issues
• The use of a phone as ordinary waking up point
• Use of letter rather than a text from Nola’s mum- more personal
3. THINGS THAT NEED IMPROVING
• A shot looking down from Nola’s perspective
• Black font on the opening credits was a little difficult to read
• Typing was too loud initially
• Slight wind issue
• Opening shots were too short in jumpcuts between the two, looked slightly glitchy
• Shorter blackout
• Looked dangerous- you need a risk assessment explain how you made it look like you
were on the edge
4. WHAT WE’LL CHANGE…
We can definitely make all of the editing changes,; attempt to make the text more
legible:
• reduce the typing volume
• attempt to reduce the wind again
• cut some of the shot-reverse shots and elongate the rest
• shorten the blackout
And do a risk assessment write up to explain how we shot the scenes where it looks as
though I’m standing on the edge
