First showcase of rough cut

In todays lesson we showcased our rough cut of our opening sequence. Each other group in the class assessed our work and made commnets on what was going well so far, what could be inproved and what needs to be added/removed.

Positive feedback:
-The setting is very effective and good for the genre.
-Quility of the filming is very good.
-Good match on action.
-Clear narrative.
-POV shot very good.
-Framing is excellent.
-Good sequence idea.

Consturctive critisism: 
-Some parts seem slightly rushed (E.G editing at the end of the sequence)
-Some cuts obvious
-Actors break the 4th wall as they look at the camera occationally.
-Needs a clearer establishing shot.
-Need to edit out the laugher on one of the shots.

We have taken on board the constructive critisism and have already identified these faults ourself. Obviously we had no finished editing when we showcased it therefore some of the critisisms like the laugher will be cut out once the editing it completed. On Friday 8th we will be refilming some of the scenes which for example, break the 4th wall and well as the establishing shot.
