1. What have you learnt by doing this exercise?
I think I've improved my storyboarding and shot list skills, also adapting the screenplay to be more achievable with our circumstances. I think our film was very good as we used a wide variety of shots. In terms of what could be improved I think we could've spent more time actually preparing everything we need instead of just deciding on the spot. Procrastinating wasn't the best choice when filming in a rush. 2. What skills have you developed? I've improved my storyboarding skills as before I didn't know which key moments to use. Also I think we've really improved with the shortlist making because we used to just chose whatever angle for the scenes but we've really thought about how each shot would've brought the motivation and storyline to the audience. During the production we've followed our shortlist thoroughly and when making any changes we developed our ideas for the best outcomes. Also I thought having one person direct it and film it other then acting as well really helped with the organisation of the progress. During the editing I had my first attempt at doing three cut scenes which turned out brilliantly. Something we've attempted to do is use a phone to record the audio of the scene and later edit it in over the original audio, didn't turn out aswell as we hoped it to but perhaps if we use a professional equipment piece next time it'll be a higher quality. 3. What feedback have you received? Overall it was good but there were a couple factors which could be improved. First of all some of the scenes chronological order didn't quite make sense and threw of the order of the screenplay. The other factor was that we didn't have enough footage for some characters and it made it not as clear as intended. One other mistake I made when filming is that when filming a shot the audio app could be seen on the phone so it was a bit of a fail. The story was pretty short and i think we could've developed it more to be more interesting and more realistic. 4. How would you improve your group work task? I would spend much more time adjusting the script to our possibilities and planning our shots more. It would really improve the quality of our film if we learned to use the 9 square technique and use proper equipment for the sound. During the editing we should've spent time to put everything into order following our shortlist and the actual screenplay.
