evaluation and feedback

1. By Bailee Brooks

2.  Overall the peer’s that assessed
my work my pleased with the
variety of shots and how they
were presented to the audience,
however they did find that the
establishing of Alex drawing
within the title sequence was not
linked as well as it could have
been to the conversation.
 Similarly they also believed that
the shots of the conversation
could have been changed as it
they felt watching was ‘awkward’
due to how the set up of the
characters was shown.
 Both these aspects will be
improved by re filming the
conversation using separate
shots at a later date.

3.  Overall the title sequence was
aesthetically pleasing to the
audience members. They
believed the focus pulls and
pan shots were particularly well
performed as well as ‘excellent
use of shaky camera for action’
 The peers that marked our
rough cut gave us all the
highest bands for our filming
meaning they believed we had
done an exceptional job at
performing the shots and
camera work.

4.  Overall our feedback claimed
the main weakness of our
production is continuity. This is
because in certain parts the
editing shows one clip of
running, then one of walking,
then back to running. Meaning
the editing doesn’t match how
the shots should be prepared.
 Also, titles were claimed to ‘not
match the genre’ and ‘are not
unique to the narrative’
however this will be altered for
the final reduction as miles
who took on the role of editor
will fix both aspects for the
ending sequence.

5.  The feedback that was given on
our opening sequence claimed
that the editing was fast pace
which matched the genre quite
well, meaning audiences will
stayed engaged and not lose
interest due to slow editing.
 Similarly, the pace is smooth
and fits well together making
the production more visibly
pleasing to watch. I agree with
this as I like how the title
sequence is slower and the
kidnapping scene is faster and
increases the intensity of the
scene.

6.  Overall I think there are only some
minor things that could be
changed with our draft. The main
elements I would change the titles
and some of the shots however
these can be easily fixed when
creating our final production by re-
filming and spending more time on
creating the titles. I agreed with
majority of what my peers claimed
about my production and I will act
upon fixing them.
