Week 4- Final

After presenting our practical production to my class and teacher we were able to gain feedback from them and also it made us aware of things that could have improved. Our production lasted around 30 seconds long, in which time we sucessfully used;
1. match on action shot (opening the door from one side, walking in from the opposite side)
2. shot reverse/ shot (holding a conversation together that flowed)

I believe that we completed the brief well and also, we fufilled the aim of using the above shots. Areas in which we could of improved our work was;
1. lighting: I already stated in week 3 that we were not over happy with the lighting in the shots. This however was unaviodable as we did not alter the lighting in the room our selves, it was a natural effect which could not be changed. The problem with the lighting is that Sophie looks a lighter colour to me on the shot reverse/ shot.
2. speech too fast: this is down to editing. I believe that the speech conversation was too quick but we could also look at it as a positive; tight editing skills.

Overall, I am conclude and evaluate my practical production as being sucessful because we fufilled what was asked of us. I have learnt many technical names for shots such as match on action and the 180degree rule which I think are very important when filming. I shall now take what I have learnt from this task and use it in my further practical work. I also enjoyed who I work with because I feel that we got along well and compromised on ideas altogether.
