Video feedback

  • ·         3 minute rough cut status: rough cut delivered on time (visuals) – audio still to be added.
  • ·         Comments on current filming: a lot of the editing is very, very good – really nice pace to the scene when the victim is bundled into the car. The one issue that may hold you back slightly is focus – particularly the longer dialogue shot of your character on the floor looking up. If this was a couple of seconds I wouldn’t be too worried but it’s actually quite an extensive shot. You could either re-shoot or re-edit and include more shots from other angles to hide the focus issue on the top-down shot.
  • ·         The in-car shots just felt a bit weird – shooting over the shoulder by the door seems a strange choice when you have the option of shooting over the other should out the middle of the windscreen. Similarly, the camerawork is a bit too shaky when filming the dashboard. Look over these again to add a bit of stability and focus to this scene.
  • ·         The main issue of course is audio – adding that will be a significant challenge but fundamentally you’ve got a decent video here. The aspects you’ll need to add are dialogue, music, sound effects (kicking etc.) but also ambient noise – you’re external throughout so car noise, background sounds etc. are vital.
  • ·         Colour correction between the two cameras will also need to be part of the final edit.
  • ·         Think how you could use titles (if you want to) in order to show it is the opening to a film.
  •  
  • ·         Next steps: simple – get the audio recorded and added; consider and carry out any re-shoots if required.
  • ·         Print – work on this individually in free periods/after school as required.

This BFI magazine doesn't meet all the different magazine cover convention which makes it very unique. The title isn't placed in the top third of the page which most magazines do so that they have room to put a center image. This magazine doesn't have center image which is very typical to most magazines. This means that all the focus of the audience goes into the the title which will lead to them remembering the name and establishing. The colour scheme is very bright with different colours which  has a strong contrast will the background. The colour scheme has synergy with BFI as they don't produce mainstream film and are  more unique. Below the title, we see the date of release and sponsor which tells the audience when it was released as well as who help produce the magazine. The title of publication is apart of the center image. As the magazine is well known, they audience would know that the "v" would stand for v magazine. I like how the 3 pu...

LR tasks for teacher

WWW: The work on your blog is solid and you’re pretty much up-to-date. There’s been a lot of work already so it is important to be keeping up with it. For the mise-en-scene video analysis, although the writing needs work the choice of clip is interesting – being aware of texts such as the Grand Tour (and all the Clarkson history that is important in British TV currently) will serve you well in Media. EBI: There are a few things we need to work on straight away. Firstly, although you’ve got the vast majority of work on there you do need to catch up with a couple of things: firstly, there is no film noir research linked to the lighting task and secondly although you’ve typed up your sound video feedback you haven’t completed the LR – judging your video against those you felt were the top three in the class. Your first task is to go back and post what’s missing. My main concern currently is your written English – it is nowhere near A Level standard. Your spelling is poor – you...
